Privacy Policy

Effective Date: December 10, 2025

tl;dr: We don't want your data.

Engram is architected to be "Zero Knowledge." Your files, chats, and vector embeddings live on your machine. We have no server-side access to your personal information.

1. Data Collection

Unlike cloud-based AI services, Engram runs locally. This fundamentally changes the privacy model:

Content: We do not collect, store, or transmit your files (PDFs, Markdown) or chat history.
Inference: All AI processing is performed by local models (Llama 3 via Ollama). No text is sent to OpenAI or Anthropic.
Telemetry: We collect anonymous crash reports only if you explicitly opt-in during installation.

2. Third-Party Services

The only time your data leaves your device is when you explicitly use a "Cloud Bridge" integration:

GitHub Integration: Connects directly to GitHub API from your IP address. We do not proxy this traffic.
Google Calendar: Uses local OAuth tokens stored in your system keychain.

3. Data Deletion

Since we do not store your data, we cannot delete it for you. To delete your data, simply uninstall the application and remove the ~/.engram directory from your computer.

4. Updates to Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our optional cloud services. Major changes will be notified via the application update log.
