PrivateClaw does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All communication is direct between your device and your self-hosted VPS. There are no analytics, no third-party SDKs, no crash reporting services, and no data collection of any kind.
Cryptographic keys used for device pairing are stored exclusively in your device's Secure Enclave or Keychain and never leave your device. Your VPS credentials (provider API keys, Tailscale token) are stored in your device's Keychain and transmitted only to your own VPS during provisioning.
Butler (the server component) stores an audit log of approval events on your VPS. This data is owned and controlled entirely by you. PrivateClaw the app never receives or stores this data.
