Privacy Policy

For sAiity, hAiity and the aiity.de website · 21 August 2026

In short: aiity has no server of its own. There is no account and no sign-up. sAiity recognises and translates on your Mac. hAiity keeps habits on your iPhone. We do not collect app usage data or personal content. If you download a speech model, or connect GitHub in hAiity, that request goes from your device to the service you chose. Their privacy policy applies there. Those are the only app-related requests that leave your device, and they are your decision.

1. Controller

Controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

Xianjie Zhan
C/O New Dong Fang Mode GmbH
Anton-Kux-Str. 2
41460 Neuss
Germany
Email: getaiityapp@gmail.com

aiity is a private, non-commercial project run by an individual.

2. The apps collect nothing for us

There is no aiity backend. There is no registration, no login and no user account. Neither sAiity nor hAiity sends us usage statistics, telemetry or crash reports. There is no tracking, and no advertising or analytics SDKs are used.

The following exists only locally on your device and is never seen by us:

in sAiity: speech recognition, translation, dictation and the models you downloaded,
in hAiity: your habits, contribution graphs, reminders and settings,
keys stored on the device that uses them.

3. sAiity on the Mac

sAiity recognises system audio and optional press-to-talk dictation on the machine itself. After you download a speech model from the source you choose, everyday use does not need the network. The model file stays on your Mac.

Audio is processed on the device. We do not receive it.

4. hAiity on the iPhone

hAiity stores habits on the iPhone. There is no aiity server and no account of ours.

You can turn on iCloud so the data lives in your own private iCloud database at Apple and syncs between your devices. We have no access to it. Apple’s privacy terms apply. You can switch the feature off; locally stored data is kept.

If you connect GitHub, that connection is between your device and GitHub. GitHub’s privacy policy applies to that request. We do not sit in the middle.

5. The aiity.de website

This site is static, sets no cookies, and embeds no external resources, fonts or analytics services. When you visit it, the server processes technically necessary connection data (IP address, time, requested file, user agent) in order to deliver and secure the site. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This data is not combined into profiles.

Release files for sAiity (the signed download and the appcast used for updates) are also served from this host. Fetching them is a download you started.

6. Diagnostics

Apple may collect crash reports if you have allowed that in system settings. That is an operating system feature, not something we run.

7. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the rights of access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection (Art. 21), as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77).

In practice: because we store no personal data about you, we can neither give you access to your content nor delete it — we simply do not have it. Your data is on your device, and with Apple or GitHub only if you used those services yourself.

8. Children

These tools are not directed at children.

9. Changes

If how the tools work changes, this policy will be updated. The version published here, with the date given above, is the one that applies.
