Your models stay on your Mac.

SmiStep is a STEP model viewer for macOS, provided by SmiCut AB. This policy explains how the app handles your information.

Last updated: 9 November 2026

No data collection by the app

SmiStep does not collect or transmit personal data, STEP files, model geometry, filenames or usage analytics to SmiCut or to third parties. It has no account system, advertising or tracking. Model loading, analysis and rendering take place locally on your Mac.

Information stored on your Mac

The app saves your settings and a list of recently opened files locally. It also stores macOS file-access bookmarks so you can reopen files you have selected. Temporary analysis files are used locally while processing a model. SmiStep does not modify the original STEP file.

Files you export or share

Images and CSV files are saved only when you request an export, to the location you choose. Copying values places them on the system clipboard. If you choose a cloud-synced folder or share an exported file using another service, that service’s own privacy terms apply.

Apple services

Apple handles App Store downloads and purchases, and may process diagnostics under your Apple and macOS privacy settings. These services are governed by Apple’s privacy policy.

Support and website links

If you contact SmiCut, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, problem description or attachments. Please send only files you have permission to share. Opening a website from the app uses your browser and the website’s own privacy policy applies.
