Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Lilac Labs ("Lilac Labs," "we," "us") handles information in connection with Gini, a local-first personal agent that runs on your own computer. By using Gini you agree to the practices described here.

Our local-first model

Gini runs on your machine, not on our servers. Your context, history, files, and the credentials you grant Gini are stored locally on your device. We do not operate a central service that ingests, copies, or retains the contents of your connected accounts. Nothing leaves your machine unless a feature you choose to use requires it, and Gini tells you when that is the case.

Information Gini works with

Depending on how you use Gini, it may handle:

• Connected-app data. When you connect an account (for example, a Google account), Gini accesses data from that account only with the permissions you grant — app by app, scope by scope — to perform the tasks you ask it to do.
• Credentials and tokens. OAuth tokens and secrets you provide are stored encrypted on your device and are used only to authenticate to the services you connected. We never ask you to email or paste long-lived secrets to us.
• Task and memory data. The instructions you give Gini, what it learns, and the results of its work are kept locally so it can recall context and improve over time.

How Gini uses Google user data

If you connect a Google account, Gini can request access to Google Workspace services — Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Forms, and Meet — using scopes you explicitly approve on Google's consent screen. Gini uses this access solely to provide and improve the user-facing features you ask for: for example, reading and drafting email, checking your calendar, or working with a document you point it to. Access is granted per scope, can be limited to read-only, and can be revoked by you at any time.

Limited Use of Google user data

Gini's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

In particular:

• We use Google user data only to provide and improve the features you request within Gini.
• We do not sell Google user data, and we do not transfer or use it for advertising.
• We do not allow humans to read your Google user data, except: with your explicit consent for specific messages; where necessary for security purposes (such as investigating abuse); to comply with applicable law; or as part of operations on data that has been aggregated and anonymized.

When data leaves your machine

Some features require sending data off your device — for instance, generating a response with an AI model provider you have configured. In those cases, only the data needed for that specific feature is sent, to the provider you chose, and Gini makes the dependency clear. We do not silently sync your data to Lilac Labs or to third parties.

Data sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Because Gini runs locally, we generally do not receive your connected-app data in the first place. Any third parties involved in a feature you use (such as an AI model provider) process data under their own terms, and only the data that feature requires.

Retention and deletion

Data Gini stores lives on your device under your control. You can delete it by removing the relevant data through Gini, or by uninstalling Gini. You can revoke Gini's access to a connected account at any time — for Google accounts, through your Google Account connections page — which immediately cuts off further access.

Security

Credentials and secrets are stored encrypted on your device, and Gini asks for your approval before taking actions that touch your accounts. No system is perfectly secure, but keeping your data on your own machine removes an entire class of risk that comes with centralized storage.

Children's privacy

Gini is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Gini evolves. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above, and material changes will be reflected here.
