Privacy Policy
Last updated 7 August 2026 · Glancet v0.1.0 (early beta)
Glancet is a desktop app that runs entirely on your Mac. It has no account system, no analytics and no telemetry. This policy explains the few places where data does move, so you can check the claim rather than take our word for it.
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE
The data controller is Hlopin Artur, trading as Glancet, contactable atsupport@glancet.io. For anything about your data, that address reaches a person, not a queue.
Payments are a separate matter: Lemon Squeezy, LLC is the merchant of record and is the controller of your payment data. Seepurchases below.
THE APP
What it reads
Glancet builds its display from data already on your machine, written there by the coding agents you run:
- Session events — your agents' hooks post small JSON payloads (project path, git branch, state, elapsed time, the prompt you typed, the agent's closing message) to a server Glancet runs on
127.0.0.1:47615. This is a loopback address: the traffic never leaves your computer and is not routable from your network. The endpoint requires a token generated on your machine. - Local files — the session transcript your agent writes (to read the model name and the last assistant message) and
.git/HEAD(to read the branch name). - Your Claude credential — read from your local Keychain, only to check usage limits, and only if you leave that feature on.
What it does not read
Glancet never reads, indexes, uploads or transmits the contents of your source code. It sees file paths that your agent reports, not file contents.
What leaves your machine
Exactly one request, and it is optional. When usage display is enabled, Glancet asks Anthropic's own usage endpoint (claude.ai/api/oauth/usage) how much of your Claude limit remains, authenticated with the token already stored on your Mac. This applies only to Claude Code; no other agent publishes readable limits. Turning the usage feature off in Settings stops the request and stops Glancet reading the credential at all — it is a privacy switch, not a display toggle.
There is no other outbound connection. No crash reporting, no usage statistics, no update ping, no third-party SDK.
Where settings live
Preferences and your recently-completed session history are stored locally in macOS user defaults under io.glancet.Glancet. Removing Glancet from Settings deletes them.
THIS WEBSITE
glancet.io is a static site. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics and has no login. Two third parties are involved in serving it:
- Google Fonts — the page loads two typefaces from
fonts.googleapis.comandfonts.gstatic.com. Your browser's IP address is visible to Google as part of that request. SeeGoogle's privacy policy. - Feedbakery — the public roadmap is embedded from
feedbakery.ioin an iframe. Anything you do inside that board is handled by Feedbakery under its own privacy policy.
PURCHASES
When Glancet is available for purchase, orders are processed by Lemon Squeezy, LLC, who acts as the merchant of record. That means Lemon Squeezy — not us — is the seller on your card statement, collects and remits any applicable sales tax or VAT, and handles your payment details. We never see or store your card number.
From a completed order we receive your email address and the country used for tax purposes, so we can deliver your licence key and provide support. We use that address to send your licence and to answer you when you write to us. We do not sell it, rent it, or add you to a marketing list without you asking. SeeLemon Squeezy's privacy policyfor how they handle payment data.
YOUR RIGHTS
Because we hold so little, most requests are simple. Write tosupport@glancet.io and we will tell you exactly what we have against your email address, correct it, or delete it. For payment records held by Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record, contact them directly or ask us and we will pass it on.
CHANGES
If this policy changes materially — in particular if Glancet ever starts sending anything new over the network — we will update this page and the date at the top, and note it in thechangelog.
