The Short Version
Aivyx collects no data. No telemetry, no analytics, no usage tracking, no crash reports, no phone-home. Your data stays on your machine, encrypted with keys derived from your passphrase.
Data Storage
All Aivyx data — conversations, memories, agent profiles, audit logs — is stored
locally on your device in the ~/.aivyx directory. Everything is encrypted
at rest using ChaCha20-Poly1305 authenticated encryption with HKDF-SHA256 derived keys.
Your passphrase is never stored. Only derived key material exists in memory during
a session, and it is zeroed on process exit using the zeroize crate.
Network Requests
Aivyx only makes network requests when you explicitly choose to:
- LLM API calls — When using cloud providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google). Your prompts are sent to the provider you choose. When using Ollama, everything stays local.
- Auto-updater — The desktop app checks GitHub Releases for new versions. No identifying information is sent.
- MCP tools — When you enable tools that access external services (web search, etc.), those tools make requests as you'd expect.
