- Your pricing information, subscription data, or revenue figures
- Your AI API keys (BYOK - Bring Your Own Key)

Local Data Storage
All your data is stored locally on your macOS device:

- App Metadata: Cached locally for offline access and performance
- AI API Keys: Stored in your macOS Keychain, never transmitted to our servers
- Preferences and Settings: Stored locally in application support files

Third-Party Services
TotalASO integrates with third-party services. Your use of these services is subject to their respective privacy policies:
App Store Connect
The Software connects directly to Apple's App Store Connect API using your credentials. All communication occurs directly between your device and Apple's servers. We never see or store your Apple credentials or app data.
AI Providers (BYOK)
When using AI features, your data is sent directly to your chosen AI provider using your own API key. We do not proxy, log, or store any AI requests or responses. Supported providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, and other services via OpenRouter.
Ollama (Local AI)
If you use Ollama for local AI processing, all processing occurs entirely on your device. No data leaves your machine.
Data Security
We implement appropriate security measures to protect any information we do collect:
- All communications with our servers use TLS encryption
- License verification uses secure, anonymized identifiers
- We do not store sensitive credentials or app data on our servers
- Payment processing is handled by PCI-compliant payment providers
Data Retention
Local Data: Data stored on your device remains there until you delete it or uninstall the Software. We have no access to or control over locally stored data.
Purchase Records: We retain purchase and license records for as long as necessary to provide you with support and license verification, or as required by law.
