Privacy

No accounts, no analytics, no telemetry. This is the whole list of what does happen.

Browsing this site
Nothing is collected beyond the standard request logs our host keeps for a short time to run the service. No analytics, ad or tracking scripts.
Theme choice
One cookie, theme=light|dark, so the page paints in your colours. Your terminal style (Windows/macOS) is stored in your browser's localStorage.
Remote control (/rc)
Messages between your machine and your browser pass through the relay and are held for at most six idle hours so a reopened tab can catch up. They're filed under a hash of your key; the key itself never reaches the server.
Report a bug
What you type in the form, nothing else (no IP, browser or account), is added to a public file in the GitHub repository. Leave the contact field empty to stay anonymous.
The CLI and desktop app
No telemetry. They contact the internet only to check for updates (GitHub), fetch the model list (this site), download models you ask for (Hugging Face), and relay /rc when you start it. Update checks can be turned off with arcflare update --off.
Models
Run entirely on your hardware. Prompts, files and outputs never leave your machine unless you point a harness at a hosted service yourself.
