Privacy & data
Short, precise statements for the LogMotif desktop app and this website. Last updated 31 July 2026.
Who is responsible
LogMotif is an independent product built and operated by Nilesh Jahagirdar, an individual developer. There is no company behind it and no other party receives your data. For anything on this page, the contact is hello@catalistclub.com.
Desktop app
- Traces stay on your machine. Runs, branches, and events are stored in a local SQLite database at ~/Library/Application Support/com.logmotif.app/logmotif.db. LogMotif does not upload traces to a LogMotif-operated cloud.
- No product telemetry. The desktop app does not send usage analytics, crash reports, or anonymous diagnostics to us. There is no opt-out because there is nothing to opt out of.
- API keys. Optional provider keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Tavily, etc.) are stored in the macOS keychain under the service com.logmotif.app. Mock mode needs no keys.
- Live model and tool calls. When mock mode is off, requests go to the providers you configure (or local Ollama). That traffic is between your machine and those services — not through a LogMotif backend.
- Attach listener. The app can listen on 127.0.0.1:7741 for local agents. The listener is loopback-only and unauthenticated: any process able to run code on your machine can send it events or make it issue model and tool calls using your configured keys. Treat the machine as trusted, and quit LogMotif when you are not using attach.
Deleting your data
All LogMotif data is local. To remove it completely:
- Quit LogMotif and delete /Applications/LogMotif.app.
- Delete the data folder ~/Library/Application Support/com.logmotif.app/ — this removes every recorded run, branch, and event.
- Open Keychain Access, search for com.logmotif.app, and delete the entries to remove stored provider keys.
Nothing needs to be requested from us to do this, because we never held a copy.
This website
- No cookies. This site sets no cookies and uses no local storage. There is no consent banner because there is nothing to consent to.
- No third-party requests. Fonts are self-hosted and there are no analytics, tag managers, pixels, embeds, or ad scripts. Loading this page contacts no server other than logmotif.com.
- Hosted on Vercel. Standard web server logs (IP, user-agent, URL) may be processed by the host for delivery and abuse prevention, under Vercel's privacy policy.
- Downloads are static files. No login is required to download the beta.
Feedback email
- If you email hello@catalistclub.com, we receive the address and content you send (and whatever your mail provider includes).
- We use feedback to improve the product and may reply. We do not sell or share email addresses.
- Feedback mail is kept while the beta is active and deleted within 12 months of the last message in a thread. Ask us to delete yours sooner and we will.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete personal data we hold about you, and to object to its processing. In practice the only personal data we ever hold is what you put in an email to us — your traces never reach us. To exercise any of these rights, email hello@catalistclub.com.
LogMotif is a developer tool and is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes materially, the "last updated" date above changes and the new version is published here before it takes effect. During the beta, changes will also be noted in the release notes.
Security
The full trust model — including what a malicious local process could do with the attach listener — is documented in the security notes. To report a vulnerability, email hello@catalistclub.com.
