The short version. Orientim runs entirely on your own computer. It has no accounts, no analytics, and no telemetry. Your API keys, agents, limits and usage logs never leave your machine. The app touches the network on its own exactly twice: once to check your license when you activate it, and once more only if you choose to deactivate a device so you can move the license to another machine.
This policy applies to the Orientim desktop application (Windows) and to this website. It sets out what data exists, where it is stored, and who can read it. For most of it, the answer is: only you.
All application data is written to a small database, config.db, in your own
Windows user profile (%APPDATA%\Orientim). That includes:
Earlier versions kept the same information in a config.json file. Upgrading
copies it into the database and leaves the original file in place as a backup, so
until you remove it your provider keys exist in both. Deleting either is safe; deleting
both removes the data for good.
We never receive, sync, or back up any of this. There is no cloud database.
Your real provider key is stored only in that local file, and it is injected only
onto the outbound request to the official provider you chose (for example OpenAI or
Anthropic). It is masked (sk-v…1234) everywhere it is displayed and is never
transmitted to us or to any third party other than that official API.
Orientim is a local proxy. Requests and responses pass through it to meter cost, but the app records only metadata — model, tokens, cost, status and time. The content of your prompts and the model's replies is not stored and never reaches us. Your use of a provider's models is governed by that provider's own privacy terms.
When you first activate, the app checks your license key once through our license service, stores the result, and then works locally. It does not re-check on its own; the only other call it ever makes is the one you trigger with Deactivate this device. That single check sends only your key and a device name so a purchase can be tied to your install. The only other network traffic Orientim makes is forwarding your own requests to the AI provider you chose. You can confirm this with a network monitor such as Wireshark.
We sell through Creem, which acts as the Merchant of Record. When you buy, Creem collects and processes your payment details and email — we never see or store your card information. We receive only what we need to deliver your download and license and to provide support (your email and order/license details). Their handling of your data is described in the Creem Privacy Policy.
This site is a static page served by our hosting provider. It sets no advertising or tracking cookies and runs no third-party analytics. Our host may keep standard server logs (such as IP address and request time) for security and reliability, as is normal for any website.
Because the app holds your data locally, you are in full control of it. To erase
everything it knows, close Orientim and delete the folder
%APPDATA%\Orientim. That removes config.db along with its -wal and -shm companions, and any config.json left by an upgrade. Delete the folder rather than a single file. Nothing is retained anywhere else, because nothing was ever sent anywhere
else. Uninstalling Orientim does not touch this folder, so an uninstall cannot lose your
history. Removing the folder is the step that erases the data.
For anything held by us in connection with your purchase (such as your order email), you may ask us to access or delete it by writing to the contact address below.
Orientim is a developer tool and is not directed to anyone under 16.
If this policy changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be reflected here before they take effect.
