Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 25, 2026

1. Introduction

Komitly ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information when you use our desktop application and website (collectively, "the Service").

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

When you create an account, we collect the information provided by your authentication provider (GitHub or Google), which typically includes your name, email address, and profile picture. We do not collect or store your passwords—authentication is handled entirely by third-party OAuth providers.

2.2 Billing Information

If you subscribe to a premium plan, payment information is collected and processed directly by our payment processor. We do not store your credit card numbers or bank account details. We only receive transaction confirmations and subscription status.

2.3 License & Device Information

To validate your license, the desktop application generates a device fingerprint (a hash derived from your machine identifier and hostname). This is used solely for license activation and does not identify you personally.

2.4 Contact Information

If you contact us through the support form, we collect the email address associated with your account, along with the subject and message content, to respond to your inquiry.

3. Information We Do NOT Collect

  • Your source code or repository contents. Komitly operates locally on your machine. We never upload, read, or analyze your code.
  • Git history or commit data. All Git operations happen locally. Repository data stays on your device.
  • Usage analytics or telemetry. We do not embed analytics trackers, SDKs, or telemetry in the desktop application.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Provide and maintain the Service
  • Authenticate your identity and manage your account
  • Process payments and manage subscriptions
  • Validate your software license
  • Respond to support requests
  • Send transactional emails (account confirmations, billing receipts)

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. AI Features

Komitly offers optional AI-powered features (such as commit message generation) that send diff data to third-party AI providers (OpenAI or Anthropic) based on your configuration. This data is sent directly from the desktop application and is not stored by us. Your use of AI features is subject to the respective provider's privacy policy and terms of service.

6. Third-Party Services

We rely on trusted third-party service providers to operate the Service, including:

  • Authentication and database hosting
  • Payment processing
  • Transactional email delivery
  • Website hosting and content delivery

Each of these providers has its own privacy policy governing how they handle your data. We select providers that maintain industry-standard security and data protection practices.

7. Data Retention

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as resolving disputes or enforcing our terms).

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. All data in transit is encrypted using TLS. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Object to or restrict processing of your data
  • Request data portability

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@komitly.com.

10. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on our website with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
