Effective date: March 18, 2025
Toone is built to work locally on your machine. We believe your data is yours, and our architecture reflects that.
Toone does not collect, transmit, or store any of the following:
All conversations, files, and project data remain on your device. Toone does not operate any backend servers that receive or process your data. The desktop and mobile apps communicate directly with each other over your local network via an encrypted WebSocket tunnel.
Toone connects to AI providers (such as Anthropic or OpenAI) using API keys that you provide. When you send a message, it is transmitted directly from your device to the provider's API. Toone does not proxy, log, or retain these requests. Please refer to your chosen provider's privacy policy for how they handle your data:
The Toone mobile app connects to a running Toone Desktop instance on the same network. The connection uses a secure, authenticated WebSocket tunnel. No data from the mobile app is sent to Toone or any third party — all communication stays between your devices.
Toone does not include any crash reporting or diagnostic SDKs. If you choose to report an issue via GitHub, any information you share is voluntary and governed by GitHub's privacy policy.
Desktop releases are distributed through GitHub Releases. The app may check for new versions by querying the GitHub API, which is subject to GitHub's privacy policy. No personal data is transmitted during this check.
If we make material changes to this policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and note the changes in our release notes.
If you have questions about this policy, open an issue on our GitHub repository or reach out to the maintainers directly.
