Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 3, 2026

Zero Data Egress. By Design.

GrantAi runs 100% locally on your machine. Your memories, documents, queries, and AI responses never leave your device. We cannot see, access, or recover your data — because it never touches our servers.

What Stays Local
  • All your memories and knowledge
  • Documents and code you ingest
  • Your queries and search results
  • AI-generated responses
  • Embeddings and semantic indexes
  • Your entire database
What We See
  • Email (for license delivery)
  • License key validation
  • Device hash (not hardware details)
  • Aggregate query counts
  • Software version
  • Billing information (via Stripe)

1. How GrantAi Works

GrantAi is fundamentally different from cloud-based AI memory services. The software installs on your machine and creates a local encrypted database. All processing — embedding generation, semantic search, memory retrieval — happens on your device.

Local Architecture Means:

  • • Your data is encrypted with AES-256 on your device
  • • Encryption keys are device-bound and never transmitted
  • • No cloud sync, no backup servers, no data replication
  • • If you delete your data directory, it's gone — we can't recover it

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

When you sign up or purchase a license:

  • Email address
  • Payment method (processed by Stripe — we never see full card numbers)
  • Transaction history

2.2 License Activation

During one-time activation per device:

  • License key — validates your subscription
  • Device hash — a one-way hash for device limit enforcement (we cannot reverse this to identify your hardware)
  • Software version — ensures compatibility

2.3 Usage Statistics

Approximately every 100 queries, the software sends aggregated counts for your dashboard:

  • Query count (number only, never content)
  • Tokens retrieved (for savings calculations)
  • Document count
  • Timestamp

We Never Collect

Query content, memory contents, document text, file names, file paths, search results, AI responses, or any user-generated content.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • License validation — verify subscription status
  • Device limits — enforce per-plan device limits
  • Dashboard — display your usage statistics
  • Billing — process payments and send receipts
  • Support — respond to your inquiries
  • Updates — notify you of security or product updates

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We share limited information only with:

  • Stripe — payment processing
  • Vercel — website and API hosting
  • Cloudflare — download delivery

We may disclose information if required by law. However, due to our local-only architecture, we typically have no user content to disclose.

5. Security

  • Local encryption: AES-256 for your database and model files
  • Device-bound keys: Encryption keys tied to your specific device
  • Network: All communication over TLS 1.3
  • No cloud storage: Your data exists only on your device

You are responsible for securing your device and maintaining backups of your data directory.

6. Data Retention

  • Local data: Retained until you delete it — we have no access
  • Account data: Deleted within 30 days of cancellation
  • Billing records: Retained 7 years for tax compliance

7. Your Rights

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your account information by contacting support@solonai.com.

Note: We cannot access, modify, or delete your local data (memories, documents) — it exists only on your device.

8. California & European Users

CCPA: We do not sell personal information. California residents may contact us for data requests.

GDPR: EEA users have rights to access, rectification, erasure, and portability. Our legal basis is contract performance.

9. Policy Changes

We may update this policy and will notify you of material changes via email. Continued use constitutes acceptance.
