This policy explains what PocketStash for ByteStash (“PocketStash”) does with your information and what it does not do. PocketStash is made by IllaoiDr Technologies LLC (“we”, “us”).

1. Overview

PocketStash is a local-first client for ByteStash, a separate, open-source, self-hosted code snippet manager. Your snippets are synchronized with the ByteStash servers you add, which we do not operate and cannot access. The only time your code reaches a server of ours is when you turn on the optional PocketStash Cloud and ask it for a suggestion or explanation (section 6). PocketStash is not affiliated with the ByteStash project.

2. No Account Required

PocketStash does not ask you to create an account with us. The app does not collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts or location.

3. Your ByteStash Servers & API Keys

• Each server you add is kept as a separate workspace with its own credentials, cache, synchronization queue and conflicts.
• API keys are stored in the iOS Keychain, on this device only. Removing a server removes its saved key.
• Server addresses must use https://. The app sends your snippets and API key only to the server they belong to.

Whoever runs a ByteStash server controls what that server stores. Their own policies apply to it.

4. Stored on Your Device

Cached snippets, pending changes, recovery copies and the app’s diagnostic log are stored in the app’s storage on your device, protected by iOS file protection. The diagnostic log leaves out server addresses, server names, API keys and raw error messages. It is not sent to us unless you choose to share it yourself with Share Diagnostics. Snippets you export, and workspace backups you make, are saved wherever you choose.

5. iCloud Preferences

If iCloud is on for PocketStash, your appearance, line-number, line-wrapping and sort-order preferences sync through your own iCloud account. Snippets, server addresses, API keys and synchronization queues are never stored in iCloud. We cannot read your iCloud data.

6. Smart Suggestions & PocketStash Cloud

PocketStash can explain a snippet or suggest a missing title, description and tags. You choose how that is done in Settings → AI Features:

• Apple Intelligence (the default) runs on your device, on supported devices. Your code is not sent to us.
• PocketStash Cloud is optional and off until you agree on its consent screen. Choosing “Not Now” or Cancel keeps Apple Intelligence, and you can switch back at any time in Settings.

After you allow PocketStash Cloud, and only when you tap Suggest or Explain, the app sends the following to PocketStash’s server:

• The code of the file you asked about and its language
• For Suggest, the snippet’s existing tags; for Explain, its title
• A random ID created for this installation of the app, used only to count your monthly allowance. It is not tied to your name, Apple Account or ByteStash servers.

Our server masks text that looks like a password, key or other credential before processing the data. The response is returned to the app; you decide whether to use a suggestion.

Do not ask PocketStash Cloud about code you are not allowed to share with a third-party service.

7. No Analytics, Ads or Tracking

PocketStash does not include analytics, crash-reporting or advertising SDKs, does not use the advertising identifier, and does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites.

8. Children’s Privacy

PocketStash is a developer tool and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Data You Send to Support

If you email us for support or feedback, we receive your email address and the contents of your message. We use that information only to respond. We do not add your address to a marketing list. Please do not send us your API keys.

10. Deleting Your Data

• Switch back to Apple Intelligence in Settings → AI Features to stop sending code to PocketStash Cloud.
• Remove a server in the app to delete its saved key and its local workspace from your device (synchronize or discard pending changes first).
• Delete the app to remove cached snippets, pending changes, recovery copies, the diagnostic log and the PocketStash Cloud installation ID from your device.
• Turn off iCloud for PocketStash in iOS Settings to stop syncing display preferences.

Because there are no PocketStash accounts, there is no server-side account for us to delete. The PocketStash Cloud usage count expires on its own after about 40 days. To delete snippets from a ByteStash server, use that server.

11. Security

Connections to ByteStash servers and to PocketStash Cloud use HTTPS. API keys are kept in the iOS Keychain on this device only, and local workspace data uses iOS file protection.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as PocketStash changes. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date below.
