Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 15, 2026
Our Core Principle
FERAL AI is designed to be local-first. Your data lives on your hardware. We don't collect it, we don't store it, and we don't sell it. Period.
What Data Stays Local
- All conversations and chat history
- Memory (notes, episodes, knowledge graph)
- Health and biometric data from wearables
- Smart home device states and commands
- Voice recordings and transcriptions
- Identity files (SOUL.md, USER.md)
- Camera frames and screen captures
What May Leave Your Device
- LLM API calls — If you use a cloud provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), your prompts are sent to their servers. Use Ollama or LM Studio for fully local processing.
- Web search — Search queries are sent to the configured provider (Tavily, Brave, DuckDuckGo, etc.).
- Integration APIs — If you connect Spotify, Calendar, Email, etc., data flows to those services as needed.
No Telemetry
FERAL AI does not send usage analytics, crash reports, or telemetry to any server. There is no tracking code, no analytics SDK, no phone-home behavior. You can verify this by reading our open-source code.
Health Data
Health and biometric data from wearables (heart rate, SpO2, sleep, steps) is processed entirely on your local machine. It is never sent to FERAL AI servers (we don't have any). It is never shared with third parties. The data is stored in your local SQLite database at ~/.feral/.
This Website
This website (feral.sh) does not use cookies, does not run analytics, and does not track visitors. It is a static Next.js site hosted on Render.
