FAQ / How do I track my emails?

The Clockk Desktop app connects to your mail server (Gmail, Microsoft Outlook/Exchange, or an IMAP server) on your behalf. It notifies the Clockk server whenever a draft email is updated. This is how Clockk tracks the time you spend writing email.

From a security perspective: The Clockk Desktop app, which connects to your mail server, runs on your computer. This means that we, the administrators that run the Clockk server, never have any access to your email account. The Clockk Desktop app reads your email, and sends the date/time, to, from, cc, and subject lines to Clockk. The message body and any attachments are completely and forever unknown to us.
