Factum

Privacy

Short version: Factum collects nothing and sends nothing.

Readers in Germany: a formal Datenschutzerklärung in the structure Art. 13 GDPR expects is available in German. This page says the same things in plainer English.

What Factum does with your data

Nothing leaves your machine. The extension:

  • has no telemetry and no analytics of any kind;
  • makes no network requests — every feature, including verbalization, validation and both schema mappings, runs locally;
  • reads and writes only the files you open or explicitly save: your .orm.json models, a .orm file you choose to import, and any image or script you export;
  • stores no account, credential or licence information, because it needs none.

What it never touches

Factum does not connect to your databases. The SQL and Cypher it generates is text in an editor; running it is your decision, with your own tools.

What others may collect

Two things sit outside the extension:

  • The Marketplace. Installing from the Visual Studio Marketplace means Microsoft records the install and version, as it does for every extension. See the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
  • This website. It is served as static files by GitHub Pages, which logs requests as described in the GitHub Privacy Statement. The site sets no cookies, loads no fonts or scripts from third parties, and has no analytics.

Verifying this

The extension is MIT licensed and the full source is on GitHub. There is no minified third-party bundle to take on trust: the only runtime dependency is an XML parser, used to read NORMA files.

Last updated: with the 0.1.0 release.
