Circuit Sage AI Privacy Policy

Effective July 24, 2026

Circuit Sage AI provides six guided circuit-analysis methods that run locally on the device. There are no user accounts, advertising, or analytics SDKs, and no developer-operated server collects personal information.

Information handled

  • No user accounts, advertising, or analytics SDKs.
  • No developer-operated server collects personal information.
  • The six guided circuit-analysis methods run locally on the device.

Optional AI image analysis

Only when you choose optional AI image analysis are the selected circuit image, your instructions, and your user-provided OpenAI API key sent directly to OpenAI over HTTPS, under OpenAI's terms and privacy policy. The key and image are never uploaded to AUTODRATION.

Your API key

The OpenAI API key stays in app memory only for the current session and clears when the app closes. Protect your key, restrict its permissions and spending limits, and avoid submitting unrelated sensitive images.

Children under 13

The app is not directed to children under 13, and AUTODRATION does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Security

Data created in the app is kept in app-specific storage provided by the operating system, which is protected by the device's own security controls. Keeping the device locked, updated, and under your control is the primary protection for that data.

Retention and deletion

Anything stored locally remains until you delete it, clear the app's storage, or uninstall the app. The API key is not persisted and clears when the app closes.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version is posted here with a new effective date. Continued use of the app after an update means the revised policy applies.
