Apargon collects nothing about you.

Who runs this

Apargon and apargon.com are made by Sagi Hammer, one person publishing as Orcaryn, for free. For privacy law, that makes me the one who decides what happens to the data on this page, which is almost nothing. Write to support@apargon.com with any question about it.

This website

• Cloudflare hosts it. To deliver a page and keep out attacks, Cloudflare processes what every request carries: your IP address, browser, the address you asked for and the time. Its privacy policy says how long it keeps that. I don't get your requests, only the traffic totals Cloudflare's dashboard shows me, and the address of any request its firewall stops.
• No analytics, no cookies, no trackers. The fonts, images and scripts all come from apargon.com itself.
• Light or dark mode is remembered in your browser's local storage. It never leaves your browser; clear the site's data to forget it.
• Downloads come from GitHub. A download link sends you to the file in the latest GitHub release, so GitHub sees that request. To pick the right file, the site reads the CPU type your browser reports and your browser's name, and forgets them once it has answered. See GitHub's privacy statement.

The app

• One network call of its own: the update check, at most once a day. It asks GitHub for a small file named for your system and CPU type, so GitHub sees your IP address and that request. On macOS, if there is a new version, the app downloads it from GitHub too. Permissions → Check for Updates Automatically turns the check off.
• No telemetry, no crash reports, no background service, nothing that starts at login.
• The papp skill is copied from inside the app into ~/.claude/skills/papp and ~/.agents/skills/papp, only if you say yes. Nothing is fetched for it.

What stays on your computer

The app keeps these only on your computer, and never sends them anywhere:

• the pages you approved and what you allowed each one;
• each page's own saved data, like a browser's site data;
• the log of every request a page made or tried to another computer, for you to check under the Permissions menu;
• when it last checked for updates.

They live in ~/Library/Application Support/Apargon and ~/Library/Logs/Apargon on macOS, and ~/.config/Apargon on Linux. Permissions → Approved Pages takes an approval back; deleting the folders removes everything.

The pages you open

A page can only reach the servers its papp-net tags name, and only after you approve them in the popup. What a page sends there is up to whoever wrote it, and what the server does with it is up to whoever runs it. This policy covers neither. The app logs each of those requests, except to this computer, so you can see what was sent where.

Two of the examples on this site reach a server: Sky asks CelesTrak for satellite orbits, and Runs loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap. Both see your IP address. The others reach no server at all.

Email

If you write to support@apargon.com, I get your address and what you wrote. I use them only to answer you, keep them only as long as that needs, and never sell or share them. Ask, and I delete them.

Issues and pull requests on GitHub are public, and GitHub's privacy statement covers them.

Your rights

Wherever you live, you can ask what I hold about you, ask me to correct or delete it, and object to its use. In practice the only thing I hold is what you email me. For what Cloudflare and GitHub keep, ask them; their policies above say how. If you are in the EU or the UK, you can also complain to your data protection authority.

The legal basis, for those laws: delivering the site safely and answering your email are legitimate interests. Cloudflare and GitHub are US companies that process data around the world, under their own safeguards for transfers out of the EU.

No warranty

Apargon is free software under the MIT license. It comes as is, without warranty of any kind, and its authors are not liable for any claim, damages or other liability arising from it or its use. The license is the full terms; this page only says what data goes where.

I don't control Cloudflare, GitHub, the servers a page reaches, or the pages other people write, and I am not responsible for what they do with your data. Their own policies apply.

Children

Apargon is not made for children under 16, and I don't knowingly hold anything about them. If you think I do, write and I'll delete it.

Changes

If this changes, this page changes, with a new date at the top. If the app ever sends anything new, the release notes will say so first.
