Privacy and data handling

Say what the product handles. Say when it leaves.

This page describes current software behavior in plain language. It is an engineering data map, not a counsel-reviewed privacy policy or DPA.

Launch gate

Legal framing, lawful bases, jurisdiction terms, and contractual commitments still require counsel review before production launch.

Where data lives

The customer’s content stays portable.

Documentation

Customer-owned Git

The product reads and writes the customer’s repository. Deleting a workspace deliberately leaves that repository alone.

Operational data

Workspace-scoped Postgres

Accounts, projects, drafts, settings, analytics, and audit records live in Postgres behind row-level security.

Uploaded files

Project-scoped assets

Images, PDFs, and fonts are content addressed, with separate copies and prefixes across projects and workspaces.

People who read

Cookieless analytics with no stored reader address.

Published sites set no analytics cookie or browser storage. A reader address is hashed and discarded before storage; the salt rotates daily, so yesterday’s visitor cannot be joined to today’s.

What a view keeps

Path, coarse country, device class, bare referrer host, and a daily salted hash.

Default retention

90 days. Each project can choose between 1 and 400 days, and shortening it deletes already-expired analytics immediately.

Third-party scripts

Published documentation includes no third-party analytics, fonts, or scripts because of Staleless.

AI features

Off until a workspace chooses them.

Ask Staleless and writing help are separate switches because they send different content.

Ask Staleless

Published passages only

A question and up to six matched published passages go to the configured OpenRouter model. No reader identity, address, session, draft, or private page is included.

Writing help

The selected text only

The selection, matching glossary terms, and site style guide go to the provider. The suggestion is not stored and changes nothing until the writer accepts it.

Customer controls

Take it, shorten it, or remove it.

Export

Download Markdown, navigation, variables, snippets, redirects, assets, versions, and a manifest of anything unavailable.

Retention

Shorten reader-analytics retention and apply the shorter window immediately.

Delete

Delete projects, accounts, or a workspace. A workspace stops serving immediately and its service data purges after a 30-day grace period.

Disconnect

Turn off AI features or remove connected services. Conditional data sharing stops with the next request.
