Privacy Policy
Last updated 13 September 2026
This policy explains what Sidekick collects when you use our website and Mac application, what we do with it, and the choices you have.
The short version. Sidekick runs on your Mac and acts when you ask it to. We do not sell your personal information. Files on your Mac stay on your Mac unless a task you start requires sending relevant information to an AI model provider.
1. Information we collect
We may collect information you provide, including your email address and support messages, as well as limited technical, usage, performance and diagnostic information needed to operate and improve Sidekick.
2. Information Sidekick handles on your Mac
To carry out a task you request, Sidekick may interact with files, folders, applications, windows, the screen or system information according to the permissions you grant. When a task requires an AI model, the instruction and relevant context needed for that task may be sent to a third-party AI provider.
3. How we use information
We use information to provide Sidekick, carry out requested tasks, provide support, maintain security, diagnose problems and improve the product.
4. Sharing
We do not sell or rent personal information. Information may be processed by service providers necessary to operate Sidekick, including hosting, infrastructure, analytics and AI providers, or disclosed where required by law.
5. Enterprise features
If Sidekick is connected to an organisation through Enterprise Connect, limited device, enrolment, usage, event or audit information may be shared with that organisation as described in the product. Enterprise activity tracking is intended to record recognised tool activity rather than the contents of prompts, source code, keystrokes or personal files.
6. Cookies and analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, understand site usage and measure advertising effectiveness.
7. Security and retention
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information. Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain security and meet legal obligations.
8. Your rights
You may contact us to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to applicable law.
9. Children
Sidekick is not intended for children under 18 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Changes
We may update this policy as Sidekick evolves. The latest version will be published on this page.
