This Privacy Policy explains what information Loqaly processes when you use it, how that information is handled, and the choices you have. Loqaly is designed to be a privacy-first, on-device AI assistant: by default, your conversations and content never leave your iPhone.

By installing or using Loqaly you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

1. Summary

• Loqaly runs language models locally on your device using Apple’s MLX Swift runtime. Your prompts, attachments, and chat history are processed and stored on-device.
• We do not operate user accounts, advertising networks, or content servers for the App.
• We do not collect, sell, or share the content of your conversations.
• We collect non-content product analytics (event names, screen views, errors, basic device attributes) through Amplitude to understand usage and improve the App. You can turn this off in Settings.
• A few optional features rely on third parties (model download from Hugging Face, optional web search via Brave, optional speech recognition via Apple). They are described below and are only used when you choose to use them.

2. Data we process

2.1 Data processed only on your device

The following data is created, stored, and processed locally on your iPhone. The Provider has no access to it.

• Chat content. Messages, prompts, replies, conversation titles, and timestamps. Stored in the App’s local SwiftData database inside the App sandbox (entities: Chat, Message).
• Attachments. Photos and files you attach to a message and any text extracted from them for the model. Held in memory during the chat session; not persisted as separate files.
• App preferences. Theme, onboarding state, selected model, and similar settings, stored in iOS UserDefaults (e.g. hasCompletedOnboarding, hasDismissedModelSetup, selectedVisualStyle).
• Downloaded model files. Weights, configuration, and tokenizer files for the on-device language model, stored under Documents/Models/ and excluded from device backups.
• Brave Search API key (optional). If you enable the web_search tool and enter a Brave Search API key, the key is stored in the iOS Keychain (service com.loqaly.api, key brave_search_api_key) on your device only.

This data is never transmitted to the Provider. Items not excluded from backup may be included in your encrypted iOS device backup (iCloud or local) according to your iOS settings, which are governed by Apple’s privacy policy.
