Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 10, 2026

This policy covers the Alpha Overmind macOS application, the Alpha Overmind mobile application, and alphaovermind.com (together, "Alpha Overmind"), operated by Pied Apps AB ("we", "us"). Alpha Overmind is built so that the most sensitive data involved, your source code, your prompts and your agents' transcripts, never reaches us at all.

The short version

• Your code and conversations stay on your devices. The phone app connects directly to your own Mac over an end-to-end encrypted link. Transcripts, prompts, file names, repository contents and tool output travel only on that link. We run no relay and no tunnel, and we cannot read that traffic.
• We never store how to reach your Mac. Your Mac's address, its identity keys, pairing secrets and the list of paired computers exist only on your own devices.
• Push notifications are content-free. A notification carries an agent's display name, a category (for example "needs permission") and internal identifiers. Never transcript text.
• Alpha Overmind never handles your AI provider credentials. The desktop app drives the agent software you installed yourself (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, xAI Grok, GitHub Copilot), under your own accounts. We do not see, store or transmit your Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI or GitHub logins or API keys.

Data we do process

Account data

An account exists for push notifications and your subscription. It can be anonymous (created on-device, no personal details) or linked to an email address, a Sign in with Apple identity or a Google identity. We store: your email address (if linked), a display name (if you set one), a hashed password (email accounts only), your language preference, app version and platform, and timestamps.

Push notification data

To deliver notifications we store your device push tokens and a random push identifier that your Mac uses to request a notification without having an account of its own. We keep a copy of delivered notifications (the content-free title and body described above) so the app can show an inbox; you can delete them by deleting your account.

Voice

Agent voices are rendered on your own Mac, and the audio streams to your phone over the direct encrypted link. By default the app uses the free macOS system voices and Apple's on-device dictation, so nothing leaves your computer at all; if you configure a speech provider key of your own, that provider receives only the text or audio needed to run it. Voice text and audio never pass through our servers.

Purchases

Subscriptions are processed by Apple or Google and managed through RevenueCat. We receive subscription state (product, expiry, renewal status) tied to your account id. We never see your payment details.

Analytics and crash reporting

We use Amplitude and Firebase Analytics to understand which features are used (screens viewed, buttons tapped, subscription events) and Sentry for crash reports. These events carry your account id and device metadata, never your code or transcripts. On iOS, ad-related tracking happens only if you allow it in the App Tracking Transparency prompt. If we run app-install ads, attribution partners (Meta, Tenjin) receive standard install and purchase signals subject to that same consent.

Support

If you contact support we process the message and email address you provide, and the IP address the message was sent from (spam prevention).

Waitlist

If you join the launch waitlist we store the email address you enter and the IP address it was sent from (spam prevention). We use it for one thing only: to tell you when Alpha Overmind is available. We never sell or share it, and every announcement carries an unsubscribe link. Write to support@alphaovermind.com to be removed at any time.

Downloads and updates

When you download the macOS app or the app checks for an update, our content delivery network (Amazon CloudFront) records a standard access log line: the time, the file requested, your IP address, and the browser or app version. We use these logs only to count downloads and active installs and to diagnose delivery problems. They are kept for 400 days and are never joined with account data or anything the app does.

Cookies and advertising measurement on the website

alphaovermind.com sets only what is strictly necessary (your sign-in, a checkout in progress, your cookie choice) before anything else. It may also load the measurement tags of the advertising platforms we buy ads on (Google, Meta, Reddit, X, LinkedIn) and an analytics tool, which set cookies of their own: where the law requires prior consent (the EEA, the UK, Switzerland, Brazil) only after you accept in the cookie banner; elsewhere from your first visit, with a notice and a one-click way to switch them off. The cookie policy lists exactly which cookies, how long they live and how to withdraw. Refusing changes nothing about what the site does for you.

If you allowed marketing cookies and arrived through an ad, we keep the click identifier the platform attached to the link and, when you subscribe, report that subscription back to that platform from our server together with a hashed form of your email address, so the platform can count it. The report carries no transcript, code or payment details, and is not sent at all without your consent. Each platform is an independent controller of the data its tag collects.

Your cookie decision is recorded (a random identifier, the time, the policy version, the IP address and browser it came from) so we can demonstrate it; the record is kept for up to three years.

Desktop subscription (Stripe)

The Mac app's subscription is sold through Stripe, which acts as the merchant of record. Stripe processes your payment details on its own pages under its own privacy policy; we receive the subscription state (plan, status, period and trial dates) and a customer identifier tied to your account, never your card number.

What we never collect

• Source code, prompts, transcripts, file names or tool output.
• Your Mac's network address, identity keys or pairing secrets.
• Your Anthropic credentials or any API keys stored on your Mac.
• Your precise location, contacts, photos or messages.

Where data lives and how long

Backend data is stored with Amazon Web Services (region: EU, Ireland) and MongoDB Atlas. We keep account data for as long as your account exists. Deleting your account (Settings, then Delete account) removes your account record, push registrations and notification history from our systems immediately; backups expire within 30 days.

Sharing

We share data only with the processors named above (AWS, MongoDB Atlas, Stripe, RevenueCat, Amplitude, Google Firebase, Sentry, our email relay) and only to provide the service, plus, with your consent on the website, the advertising platforms described in the cookie policy. We do not sell personal data.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (including under the GDPR), you may have rights to access, correct, export or erase your personal data. In-app account deletion covers erasure; for anything else contact support@alphaovermind.com. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.

Children

Alpha Overmind is a developer tool, not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

We will post any changes to this policy here and update the date above. Material changes will be announced in the app.
