Privacy Policy

Water Works HQ ("waterworkshq", "we", "us", or "our") operates the waterworkshq.com website and develops open-source developer tools including orcy, mnemo, and bluei.

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle data when you visit our websites or use our products. Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, please do not access our sites or use our products.

Our tools — orcy, mnemo, and bluei — are built with a local-first architecture. This is a core design principle, not an afterthought:

• Your data stays on your machine
• No telemetry is collected or transmitted
• No cloud lock-in — your data is yours
• All tools are open source and fully auditable

Our products do not phone home, do not track usage, and do not transmit data to our servers or any third party. What runs on your machine stays on your machine.

Our products may integrate with third-party services such as GitHub, various AI model providers, and developer tool platforms. These integrations run locally on your machine and communicate directly between your machine and the third-party service.

We do not act as an intermediary for these communications. Any data exchanged with third-party services is governed by their respective privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies before using such integrations.

To be explicit about our approach:

• We do not collect usage analytics or telemetry
• We do not use cookies or tracking technologies on our websites
• We do not collect, store, or process user data through our products
• We do not sell, rent, or trade any data to third parties
• We do not run advertising of any kind

Every tool in the waterworkshq fleet is open source. Our code is publicly available and auditable, which means you don't have to take our word for any of the claims in this policy — you can verify them yourself.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically for any changes.
