# what we collect

By default: nothing. forge runs on your machine. No analytics ping, no usage report, no "anonymous" telemetry.

02

# how we use it

If you opt into cloud inference, the prompt and the relevant context are sent to the model provider you configure (you choose: OpenAI, Anthropic, local Ollama, etc). We do not proxy.

03

# sharing

We do not share anything because we do not receive anything. Cloud providers have their own retention policies — check them before you flip the switch.

04

# your rights

Uninstall is one command: `rm $(which forge)`. There is no account to delete. There is no profile to export.
