Privacy policy

Your boards are nobody's business.

Effective July 5, 2026 · applies to Atelier for macOS

What Atelier stores

Everything you put into Atelier (boards, images, notes, palettes, settings) lives in Atelier's storage folder on your Mac (you can open it anytime from Settings). It is never uploaded, synced, or copied anywhere by us. Deleting that folder deletes everything; there is no server-side copy because there is no server.

What leaves your Mac

Only network requests you initiate directly, and only to do the thing you asked:

On-device search

Atelier's visual search (describing an image to find it) runs a machine learning model locally on your Mac. Your images and search queries are never uploaded. The model ships inside the app.

The browser clipper

The optional browser extension sends clipped images straight to the Atelier app on your Mac using a local link. Nothing passes through any server, and the extension collects no browsing data.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date. Given the app's design, there isn't much room for it to change.
