Privacy Policy

Overview

aiMenu2 (the “App”) is a macOS application provided by Artman21 Inc. (“we” or “us”). We respect your privacy. The App does not connect to our servers, and we do not collect your personal information or the content of your prompts.

However, to provide its AI features, the App sends what you enter or select to AI services through your own OpenRouter account, as described below.

Information We Do Not Collect

Through the App, we do not collect:

• Personally identifiable information (name, email address, etc.)
• Your prompts, AI responses, attached images or PDFs, or voice recordings
• Your OpenRouter API key
• Location, contacts, or calendar data
• Usage statistics such as how often you launch the App

Sending to OpenRouter and AI Services

The App uses OpenRouter for AI requests. Only when you send a request, the following is sent to OpenRouter:

• Your prompt, the system prompt, and the conversation history of the same topic
• Images or PDFs you attach, and generated images sent back for further editing
• The first question and response, to name the topic automatically

OpenRouter forwards the content to the AI provider of the model you selected (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). When you use Fusion, the content is forwarded to several AI providers. This is governed by the privacy policies and terms of OpenRouter and each AI provider. We do not have access to this content.

In your OpenRouter settings, you can restrict requests to providers that do not retain data. See the OpenRouter Privacy Policy for details.

Voice Input and Read Aloud

• Voice input: Only when you start voice input, the App records audio from the microphone and sends it to OpenRouter to be transcribed. Recordings are deleted after they are transcribed. Using the microphone requires your permission in macOS.
• Read aloud: If you choose macOS as the speech engine, no network connection is made. If you choose OpenRouter, the text to be read is sent to OpenRouter and synthesized speech is returned.

Logging in to OpenRouter

When you use “Log in to OpenRouter…”, OpenRouter's login page opens in your browser. You log in on OpenRouter's site, and the App never handles your password. After you authorize it, the App receives an API key from OpenRouter. For this, the App opens a receiver (localhost) that accepts connections only from the same Mac, and only during the login.

Other Network Connections

• Exchange rate: To show costs in yen, the App gets the US dollar to yen exchange rate from Frankfurter. No personal information is sent.
• Display libraries: The libraries used to display responses (Markdown, math, and code) are loaded from CDNs (jsDelivr and cdnjs).
• Purchases: Subscriptions are purchased and verified through Apple's App Store.

Data Stored on Your Mac

• Settings and your OpenRouter API key are stored on your Mac.
• Your conversation history (topics and archives) is stored on your Mac. If you turn on saving to iCloud, it is stored in your iCloud Drive and managed under Apple's privacy policy. We do not access data in iCloud.
• Records of unexpected quits are stored only on your Mac and are not sent anywhere.
