Privacy Policy
Last updated July 20, 2026
Koda runs on your Mac. Your projects, chats, and files stay on your computer. We never sell your data and we never look inside your files.
This website
This site uses PostHog to see how people use the page. It counts page views and records each visit, so we can see how visitors scroll and where they stop reading. This helps us make the page better. Anything you type is hidden before the recording is saved, so we never capture it. We do not know who you are, and we do not track you across other sites. While your tab is open, we keep a small id in your browser so a single visit stays together. It is gone when you close the tab. There is no other tracking and nothing to sign up for.
The app
Your work lives in folders on your computer. Koda has no account system and no server that stores your work. Three things use the network:
The AI engine. Koda's agent runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT plan, or your own API key. Your messages and the files the agent works with go directly from your Mac to Anthropic or OpenAI, under their terms and privacy policies. Koda is not part of that connection and we never see its contents.
Update checks. The app periodically checks GitHub for new versions. GitHub receives a standard web request from your Mac.
Feedback. If you submit the feedback form, we receive what you wrote and your app version.
Analytics
The app counts which features get used and which errors happen, so we know what to fix. The counts are tied to a random id and never include your files, chats, file names, or project names, so we cannot see your work through them. Nothing is sent until setup shows you the sharing choice, and you can turn it off there or anytime in Settings. Off means nothing is sent at all.
Planned services
Optional paid add-ons for cloud sync and phone access are planned. Anything that syncs will be encrypted on your Mac before it leaves, so our servers cannot read it. We will update this policy when those ship.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
Contact
Use the feedback form in the app, or email hello@kodahq.io.
