Privacy policy
Privacy Policy
Draft — last updated October 6, 2026
This is a draft, not a substitute for legal advice. It describes, honestly and in plain language, what data actually moves where when you use this site or the Ogden software. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer, and it may not, on its own, satisfy every obligation that applies to you or your organization under laws like GDPR or CCPA depending on where you and your customers are. Have it reviewed before relying on it.
Overview
There are two very different things "privacy" can mean here, and this policy covers both separately: (1) this marketing website, which is what most privacy policies are written about, and (2) the Ogden Agents software itself, which — because it runs locally on your own computer — works differently from almost anything else you'll read a privacy policy for. Read the Ogden Agents software section below; it's the part that actually matters once you're running it.
This website
This site (the pages you're reading now) doesn't use cookies, doesn't run any third-party analytics or tracking script, and doesn't build a profile of you. If you just browse it, we don't collect anything at all beyond what any web server incidentally logs (IP address, requested page, timestamp) for basic operation and abuse prevention, and even that isn't tied to an identity.
The Ogden Agents software
Ogden Agents is free, open-source software (MIT licensed) that you run on your own computer —
there's no account to create and nothing to buy. We do not operate any part of a
running Ogden Agents instance, and the software itself contains no telemetry, analytics, or
"phone home" mechanism of any kind. We don't receive your projects, your chats, your
agents' conversations, your code, or any usage statistics — not because we've promised not to
look, but because there's genuinely no code path in the application that sends any of it
anywhere. It's designed for one user on one computer: its local server only answers requests
addressed to 127.0.0.1, so there's no remote access by us or anyone else. The
only data it ever sends outside your computer is what you explicitly send to an agent you've
signed in to — see the next section.
The agents you connect
Ogden Agents is designed to connect to AI coding agents — that's the whole point of it — but it doesn't include any AI or LLM service itself. In Settings > Agents, you sign in to whichever you choose: Claude Code or Antigravity with your own subscription account or an API key, Codex with your own OpenAI API key, Grok with your own xAI API access token, or a local model running on your own computer (or any OpenAI-compatible address you add).
Once signed in, prompts, code, and conversation content are sent directly from your own computer to that agent's own provider — not through us, not visible to us. That data is then handled entirely under that provider's own privacy policy and data usage terms, including whatever their policy says about retention or use for model training. We strongly recommend reviewing the privacy/data policy of whichever provider you connect, particularly if you're sending proprietary or sensitive code, before you do. Saved keys and tokens are kept in your computer's own keychain and go only to that agent's own process.
The one configuration where nothing leaves your computer at all: use a local model. It needs no account and no key, and talks only to a server on your own computer (or an address you add yourself), so every prompt and every response stays on hardware you control.
Direct correspondence
If you email hello@harrisonsmith.ai, we keep that correspondence to respond to you and for our own records — the same way any business would. We don't sell, rent, or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
Children's privacy
This site and the Ogden software are intended for software development use by adults and are not directed at children. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site or the software after a change means you accept the update.
