Privacy for a local-first Mac app.

Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Akgunay Labs handles information for the Linea Prompt website, beta access flow, release download flow, update feed, and macOS app.

The website and the app handle different kinds of information. The website runs the beta list and release access. The app is a native macOS utility that stores your prompt workflow data on your Mac and, if enabled, through your private iCloud account.

Information you provide

When you join the beta, we collect your email address and any optional details you choose to provide, such as name, macOS version, role, and primary use case. We also record your consent to receive beta access, release notes, and founder terms updates before Linea Prompt 1.0.

If you contact us by email or through a support channel, we receive the information you choose to include in that message. Please avoid sending secrets, private prompts, or confidential files unless they are necessary for support.

Information collected automatically on the website

The website may collect technical information needed to operate the beta safely, including user agent, source path, referrer, beta access events, download click events, rate-limit counters, and security counters.

The beta access flow uses a secure, httpOnly cookie to remember a beta access token after you open an access link. The cookie expires after 14 days and is used to verify access and record access or download events.

The site uses Vercel Web Analytics for aggregate traffic measurement. Analytics are disabled on the token-gated beta access page. The site also uses Cloudflare Turnstile on beta signup when configured, so Cloudflare can help distinguish real signups from automated abuse.

Information stored by the macOS app

The Linea Prompt app stores your prompt workflow data using Apple's local storage and SwiftData. This can include Blueprints, template text, Variables, remembered values, Context metadata, selected files, Time Machine versions, ratings, settings, and Injection History.

Injection History may include the rendered prompt, target app name, timestamp, variable snapshot, file names, and character or file counts. If your prompt includes context files, app data may include file names, file metadata, bookmarks, and local cached content needed for offline use.

When iCloud is available, the current app build uses your private CloudKit database to sync app data across your Apple devices. Akgunay Labs does not operate that iCloud account and does not have routine access to your private CloudKit database.

Clipboard, Accessibility, and injection

Linea Prompt uses the macOS clipboard to place the rendered prompt where you can paste it. The hotkey panel's Inject action can dispatch a synthetic paste into the frontmost app after writing the rendered prompt to the clipboard.

The app asks for Accessibility permission so the global hotkey and Inject workflow can work outside the Linea Prompt window. You can revoke this permission in System Settings. Some secure-input surfaces deliberately block synthetic paste; in those cases, the prompt remains on your clipboard for manual paste.

Linea Prompt does not read all keystrokes, does not record the contents of other apps, and does not send your injected prompt to Akgunay Labs. When you paste or inject a prompt into another app or AI service, that app's own terms and privacy policy apply.

Updates and release delivery

The direct-distribution app uses Sparkle to check for updates from the Linea Prompt update feed. Update checks and release downloads can involve ordinary network request data, such as IP address, user agent, timestamp, and download source.

Release download events may be recorded so we can understand beta adoption, protect release links, troubleshoot delivery, and keep the update path reliable.

How we use information

• To register beta users and send beta access emails.
• To preserve beta and founder eligibility records before Linea Prompt 1.0.
• To protect signup and access routes from spam, abuse, and automated traffic.
• To operate release downloads, update feeds, and access links.
• To understand aggregate website traffic and improve public pages.
• To respond to support, feedback, and security reports.
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our site and beta terms.

Service providers

We use service providers to run the website and beta flow. Current providers include Vercel for hosting and aggregate analytics, Convex for beta and release backend records, Resend for beta access email, Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection, and Apple services such as iCloud/CloudKit when you enable app sync.

We do not sell personal information and do not share personal information for cross-site behavioral advertising.

Retention and deletion

Beta registration records are kept while needed to provide beta access, founder eligibility, release notices, support, security, and compliance. Beta access tokens expire after 14 days, though related operational records may remain longer when needed for abuse prevention, troubleshooting, or legal reasons.

App data stored on your Mac or in your private iCloud account is controlled by you through the app, macOS, and Apple account settings. You can delete local app data, remove the app, manage iCloud storage, revoke Accessibility permission, or ask us to delete website beta records tied to your email address.

Your choices and rights

• You can opt out of non-essential beta and founder-update emails by contacting us or using any unsubscribe mechanism we provide.
• You can request access, correction, export, or deletion of beta records tied to your email address.
• You can block or delete cookies in your browser, though the beta access page may not work without the access cookie.
• You can disable iCloud sync or manage app data through Apple account and macOS settings.
• You can revoke Accessibility permission in System Settings, understanding that the global hotkey and Inject workflow may stop working.

Security

We use technical and organizational measures intended to protect the website, beta records, and release access flow. No internet service, email system, or local computer is perfectly secure, so avoid sending unnecessary confidential material through support channels.

If you believe you found a security issue, contact hello@lineaprompt.com.

Children

Linea Prompt is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child provided personal information through the website, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Changes and contact

We may update this Privacy Policy as the beta, app, and release process evolve. When we make material changes, we will update the date above and may provide additional notice through the website, app, release notes, or email.
