Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Commitment

Lokalbot is built with privacy as a core principle. This policy explains our commitment to protecting your privacy and the local-first approach we take with your data.

Data Processing

What We Don't Collect

• • No usage analytics or telemetry
• • No personal information or identifiers
• • No window content or screenshots
• • No keystroke logging or input monitoring
• • No network requests for data collection
• • No crash reports or error logging to external servers

What Lokalbot Tracks Locally

• • Foreground application names (e.g., "Safari", "VS Code")
• • Window titles (e.g., "GitHub - lokalbot/repo")
• • Idle time detection
• • Time spent in each application
• • Daily activity summaries (generated locally)

All this data remains on your device and is never transmitted anywhere.

LLM Integration

When you choose to use LLM features for generating summaries, you control which service to use and what data to send. Lokalbot provides options for local LLMs or external services, but you decide what information to share.

macOS Permissions

Lokalbot requires macOS accessibility permissions to read window titles and detect active applications. These permissions are used solely for the app's core functionality and no data is transmitted outside your device.

Data Storage

All data is stored in local files on your Mac. You have complete control over this data and can delete it at any time by removing the application or its data files.

Open Source Transparency

Lokalbot is open source, meaning you can inspect the code to verify our privacy claims. The source code is available on GitHub for complete transparency.

Changes to This Policy

Any changes to this privacy policy will be reflected in the app and on our website. Given our local-first approach, changes are unlikely to affect data handling practices.
