Privacy Policy
Last updated: Nov 18, 2024
Overview
BeeMind is built with privacy at its core. We believe your thoughts and notes should remain yours, which is why we've designed our app to maximize privacy while delivering powerful features.
Data Collection & Storage
Local Storage: By default, all your notes and captured content are stored locally on your device. We do not have access to this data.
AI Processing: All captured notes go through, at your choice, one of the following
- OpenAI (requires internet connection)
- Anthropic Claude (requires internet connection)
- Local LLM (100% offline, no data leaves your device)
Sync Features (Premium)
For premium users, BeeMind uses Apple's iCloud for synchronization:
- All sync functionality is handled through your personal iCloud account
- Data is protected by Apple's built-in security and encryption
- Your content stays within Apple's ecosystem
- We never have direct access to your synced data
- Sync can be controlled through your device's iCloud settings
Note: iCloud sync requires an active Apple ID and sufficient iCloud storage. Please refer to Apple's iCloud privacy policy for more details about data handling and security.
Analytics
We collect minimal analytics to improve the app:
- App launches and crashes (no personal data included)
- Feature usage statistics (aggregated and anonymized)
- Basic system information (macOS version, device type)
You can opt out of analytics in the app settings at any time.
Your Data Control
You have full control over your data:
- Delete individual notes or all data from the app
- Change AI providers
Third-Party Services
When you choose to use AI features, data is processed by:
