IFC View privacy policy
3D IFC and BIM model viewer for Mac, iPad and iPhone.
Last updated: 28 September 2026
The app
IFC View is designed to not collect personal data.
- The models you open are processed entirely on your device. They are never sent to any server.
- The app does not use analytics, tracking or advertising.
- IFC View contacts two external services, and only these. Apple, through StoreKit, to process the Pro purchase and the free trial; IFC View has no access to any payment data, which Apple manages under its own privacy policy. And, only when you use Check > Look Up a Classification and type a search, the public buildingSMART Data Dictionary (api.bsdd.buildingsmart.org), which receives the words you searched for and nothing else: no model, no file, no identifier. The result is shown to you and is never written into your model.
- Notes, photos and markups you add to a model are kept in the app's own storage on your device, and are deleted with the app.
- No user accounts are created, and no data is stored on any server operated by us.
