Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 23, 2026 · Draft pending legal review.

1. What Klaussy collects

Klaussy is a desktop application. It does not host a backend service of its own. Information you interact with from within Klaussy goes to third parties whose policies govern what they collect:

  • Claude Code / Anthropic. When you use the terminal, /ultraplan, /debug, /review, "Explain diff", inline AI edit, or AI commit-message generation, Claude reads the prompt and repository context you provide. See Anthropic's privacy policy.
  • GitHub. When you view / comment on / merge PRs or run CI checks through Klaussy, those requests go through your local gh CLI to GitHub. See GitHub's privacy policy.
  • Ollama (optional). If you enable inline AI completion, Klaussy runs qwen2.5-coder:1.5b locally via Ollama. No data leaves your machine.
  • Paddle. If you purchase a license, Paddle processes your payment and emails you the license key. See Paddle's privacy policy.

2. What Klaussy stores locally

  • Your project list, terminal sessions, notes, and preferences, in ~/Library/Application Support/Klaussy/config.json.
  • Logs of main-process activity (errors, updater, license verify), in ~/Library/Logs/Klaussy/main.log. No prompt contents are logged.
  • If you activate a license, the license key, associated email, and a derived device fingerprint, stored in the same config.json.

None of this leaves your machine unless you explicitly sync your home directory to iCloud, Dropbox, etc.

3. What Klaussy sends off-device

  • License verification. On activation, and weekly thereafter, Klaussy sends your license key and a device fingerprint (a non-reversible hash of your hostname + username + platform) to Paddle to confirm the license is still valid.
  • Update check. On launch, Klaussy checks our update feed for a newer version. The request reveals your IP and the current app version; no personal data is sent.

4. Telemetry

Klaussy does not send usage analytics or telemetry. We do not track which features you use, what projects you open, or how often you launch the app.

5. Third-party services

Klaussy orchestrates several tools you choose to use. Their policies apply:

6. Your rights

You can at any time:

  • Deactivate your license (About → Manage License).
  • Delete your local data by removing ~/Library/Application Support/Klaussy and ~/Library/Logs/Klaussy.
  • Request deletion of the email Paddle associates with your license, by contacting Paddle directly (we don't store a customer DB of our own).

7. Contact

Open an issue in the feedback repo or ping the Discord for any privacy-related question.

8. Changes to this policy

We'll update this page and bump the "Last updated" date at the top. Material changes will be noted in the release notes of the version that introduces them.
