Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 15, 2026

The Short Version

AskAlf is self-hosted software. Your data stays on your infrastructure. We don't collect, store, or transmit any of your data.

Self-Hosted Deployment

AskAlf runs entirely on your own hardware. All data — agent executions, cognitive memory, configurations, API keys, and conversations — is stored in your PostgreSQL database and Redis instance. Nothing leaves your network unless you explicitly configure external integrations.

What We Don't Collect

• No usage analytics or telemetry
• No user behavior tracking
• No API key storage on our side (they stay in your environment)
• No access to your agent executions or outputs
• No phone-home, no crash reports, no beacons

External Services

When you use AskAlf, the following external services may be contacted based on your configuration:

• AI Providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) — for agent execution and embeddings, using your API keys
• OAuth (Anthropic) — for Claude CLI authentication, if configured
• Integrations (GitHub, Slack, etc.) — only the ones you explicitly connect
• SearXNG — privacy-respecting web search, runs in your Docker stack
• Font APIs (Google Fonts, FontShare) — for dashboard and landing page typography

askalf.org Website

The askalf.org website is a static HTML page served by nginx. It does not use cookies, analytics, tracking scripts, or fingerprinting. The intent parser demo on the landing page sends your typed text to our API for routing — this is rate-limited, not stored, and not logged.

Open Source

AskAlf is open-source software under the MIT license. You can audit the entire codebase at github.com/SprayberryLabs/askalf.
