Privacy Policy

The short version

Tempest the app is local-first. Your code, agent conversations, and repository data never leave your machine. We do not have servers that see your codebase.

Tempest the website (tempestai.dev) collects basic, anonymous analytics — page views, country, browser type — via Vercel Analytics. No personal information is collected or sold.

What the app collects

Nothing. The Tempest desktop app does not transmit your code, your agent conversations, your repository contents, or any personal data to any server we operate. All processing happens locally on your machine. The only outbound network requests the app makes are to GitHub (to fetch release information) and to AI provider APIs you configure (e.g., Anthropic for Claude Code) — using credentials you supply.

What the website collects

Vercel Analytics. We use Vercel Analytics to collect anonymized page view data. This includes the page visited, referrer, country, device type, and browser. No IP addresses are stored. No cookies are set by analytics. Data is aggregated and not linked to individuals.

Cookie consent preference. If you interact with the cookie consent banner, your preference is stored in localStorage on your device. This is not transmitted to us.

Third-party services

The website is hosted on Vercel. Vercel may log standard server access data (IP addresses, request headers) as part of normal hosting infrastructure. See Vercel's privacy policy at vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy for details.

Your rights

Since we do not collect or store personal data, there is nothing to request deletion of. If you have questions about this policy, open an issue on our GitHub repository or contact us at the address listed there.

Changes

We may update this policy as the product evolves. The effective date at the top of this page indicates the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
