Privacy policy — Open Terminal

What the app collects

Nothing. That is not a turn of phrase, it is a property of the architecture: there is no server behind the app. The phone talks directly to your machines, and there is nowhere for data to be sent.

What stays on your device

None of this is synchronised or backed up elsewhere by the app.

What leaves the phone

Only what you type, to the server you chose, over an encrypted SSH connection you establish yourself.

The assistant is no exception: it uses Apple's on-device model, which runs on the device. The contents of your terminal go to nobody, not even to Apple.

The transcript, plainly

It records what scrolled past on screen, which sometimes includes what should not have: a token shown by mistake, an echoed password, an environment variable. That is why it is encrypted at rest, capped in size, and erasable in one gesture from the settings. It can also be turned off.

Your rights

Since all your data is on your device and nowhere else:

There is nobody to contact for an access or deletion request: no copy of your data exists anywhere other than on your phone.
