Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 November 2026. AVNI is run by Bhushan Gaikwad. This policy explains what the AVNI Mac app and its server keep during the pilot.

What we collect

• Your Google account basics: your name, email address and profile picture link, from Google sign-in. We do not see your Google password or anything else in your Google account.
• Your conversations: the text of each question you ask AVNI and the text of its answer, including drawings, and whether it came from the Thinker on your Mac or from AVNI Cloud.
• App details: errors, the app version, your macOS version and your Mac's chip and memory, and for AVNI Cloud answers how long they took and how much of your daily allowance they used.

What stays on your Mac

Your voice. AVNI's Listener turns your speech into text and its Speaker reads answers aloud, both on your Mac. Audio is never sent to us or anyone else. When the Thinker answers, your question stays on your Mac too; only the question and answer text is saved for the pilot, as above.

Why we use it

To sign you in, to answer your questions, to keep the service working and fair (for example a daily limit on AVNI Cloud answers), and to learn what pilot users need so we can improve AVNI. We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.

Who else handles it

We use a small number of service providers to run AVNI's server, store the data above and answer questions with AVNI Cloud. They handle it only to provide AVNI to you. With AVNI Cloud, your question and the last few turns of the conversation are sent to answer it. Sign-in goes through your Google account.

How long we keep it, and your choices

We keep pilot data until the pilot ends, unless you ask us to delete it sooner. To see or delete your data, or to close your account, email bhushan@alfredscholar.com and we will do it within 30 days. You can sign out at any time in AVNI's Settings.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will update the date above and tell pilot users in the app's release notes.
