Privacy Policy for LocalMind AI
Effective Date: July 20, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to LocalMind AI. Your privacy is our
highest priority. We built this application with a strict focus on local
processing and data security. This Privacy Policy explains our practices
regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use the
LocalMind AI mobile application (the "App").
2. Information We Do Not Collect
LocalMind AI is designed to run entirely on your device
after the initial setup. Because of this, we do not collect, store, or
transmit your conversations, prompts, or generated text.
- All AI
processing (inference) is handled locally on your device's hardware
(CPU/RAM).
- Your
chat history remains exclusively on your local device.
- We do
not have servers that harvest or read your personal data or messages.
- LocalMind AI generates content completely on-device for maximum user privacy. To comply with AI safety policies, the app includes an in-app 'Report' flag on all AI responses. Because we do not collect or transmit user chat data to any servers, reports of inappropriate content are immediately processed on-device by adjusting the local AI system prompt guardrails to prevent future occurrences, ensuring both user safety and total data privacy
3. Information Collected by Third Parties
While we, the developers, do not collect your personal chat
data, the third-party services integrated into our App (such as Google Play and
Google AdMob) automatically collect certain standard technical and usage data:
- In-App
Purchases: If you purchase subscriptions or tokens, the
transaction is processed securely through Google Play Billing. We do not
have access to your credit card information; we only receive an anonymous
purchase token to verify your premium status.
- Advertisements
(Google AdMob): We use Google AdMob to display advertisements in
the free version of the App. AdMob may collect device identifiers, IP
addresses, and usage data to serve personalized or non-personalized ads.
- Crash
Reports and Analytics: The Google Play Console automatically
collects aggregated, anonymous crash reports and performance data to help
us identify bugs and improve the App's stability.
4. Third-Party Privacy Policies
The App uses the following third-party services that collect
information strictly governed by their own privacy policies. We highly
recommend reviewing them:
- Google
Play Services: Used for app delivery, updates, and crash
reporting.
- Google
Play Billing: Used for processing secure in-app purchases and
subscriptions.
- Google
AdMob: Used for displaying advertisements. You can manage your ad
preferences via your Android device settings.
5. Internet Permissions
The App requests internet permissions exclusively for two
reasons:
- Initial
Setup: To download the necessary AI models to your device upon
first launch or when you request a new model.
- Billing
Verification: To securely verify subscription status or token
purchases via Google Play Billing. Once models are downloaded, the core AI
chat functionality operates 100% offline.
6. Children's Privacy
Our App does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do
not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under
13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal
information, we immediately delete this from our servers (if applicable). If
you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us
with personal information, please contact us.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will
notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and
updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to review
this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
