Zen Apps Factory
Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 2026
ZenAppsFactory (“we”, “our”, or “us”) develops applications for the Zendesk Marketplace.
Protecting customer data is a core design principle of our products. Our applications are designed to minimize data access and avoid collecting or storing Zendesk customer data whenever possible.
Privacy by Design
ZenAppsFactory applications access only the information required to provide their intended functionality.
We do not maintain a database containing Zendesk customer data.
Where technically possible, information is processed directly within your Zendesk account or browser rather than being transmitted to ZenAppsFactory.
Unless otherwise stated, our applications may collect anonymous Google Analytics usage information, such as browser version, application version, language, and feature usage. These analytics never include Zendesk customer data, ticket content, comments, attachments, or personal information.
We do not sell personal information or customer data.
Information that the website collects
When you visit our website or contact us, we may collect information that you voluntarily provide, such as your name or email address.
Our website also uses Google Analytics to help us understand website usage and improve our services.
Zendesk Marketplace Applications
Subscription Information
When you start a free trial or purchase a subscription, our payment provider (Stripe) may provide us with information such as your name, email address, organization, and subscription status.
We use this information to:
* Manage your subscription and billing.
* Provide customer support.
* Contact you regarding your trial or subscription.
* Offer onboarding assistance and help you successfully set up and evaluate our applications.
We do not sell this information or use it for unrelated marketing purposes.
We may occasionally send personalized emails related to your trial or subscription to help you get the most value from our applications. You may opt out of non-essential communications at any time.

Security
Our applications are designed around the principle of data minimization.
All communication with Zendesk and supported third-party services is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS.
Each application requests only the minimum Zendesk API permissions required for its intended functionality.
Because ZenAppsFactory does not maintain a database containing Zendesk customer data, there is no customer database storing ticket information or customer conversations.
Third-Party Services
Our products may interact with trusted third-party services, including:
-
Zendesk
-
Slack (ZenMention only)
-
Google Analytics (anonymous website and application usage analytics)
-
Stripe (subscription billing)
Each provider maintains its own privacy and security policies.
Data Retention
ZenAppsFactory does not retain Zendesk customer data from its Marketplace applications.
Anonymous Google Analytics data may be retained in accordance with Google’s retention policies.
Information voluntarily submitted through our website (such as contact requests) may be retained only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry or meet legal obligations.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.
The latest version will always be available on this page, and the “Last Updated” date will reflect the most recent revision.
