Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-06-17 Applies to: Network-AI (the network-ai npm package, MCP server, CLI, and Claude Code plugin)

Summary

Network-AI runs entirely on your own machine. It collects no personal data, sends no telemetry, and makes no network calls of its own. There is no account, no sign-in, and no cloud backend operated by the project.

What we collect

Nothing. The Network-AI project does not collect, receive, store, or transmit any personal data or usage data about you.

Data the software stores locally

Network-AI persists its operational state to local files on the machine where you run it. These files never leave your device unless you copy them yourself. They include:

  • data/audit_log.jsonl — append-only audit trail of state changes,

permission grants, and transitions

  • swarm-blackboard.md and data/pending_changes/ — shared blackboard state

and write-ahead-log entries

  • data/active_grants.json, data/.signing_key — permission grants and the

local token-signing key

  • data/budget_tracking.json, data/task_tracking.json,

data/agent_health.json, data/project-context.json — runtime tracking

You own and control these files. Delete them at any time.

Telemetry

Network-AI ships with telemetry disabled by default. The default NullTelemetryProvider performs no collection and makes no outbound calls. OpenTelemetry support is strictly opt-in and bring-your-own (BYOT): if you choose to wire in your own OTel SDK via createOtelHooks(), spans are sent only to the collector you configure. The Network-AI project never receives that data.

Network access

Network-AI makes no outbound HTTP calls of its own — no telemetry, no call-home, no cloud dependency. Any network activity originates from clients, adapters, or model providers you configure (e.g. an LLM API key you supply under the bring-your-own-client model). Those services are governed by their own privacy policies.

Third-party model providers

When you connect Network-AI to an external agent framework or model provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), your prompts and data are handled by that provider under its terms and privacy policy. Network-AI does not forward that data to the project or to any party other than the provider you configured.

Children's privacy

Network-AI is a developer tool and is not directed to children. It collects no data from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be published in this file in the repository, with a revised effective date.
