Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 17, 2026

The Summary: We collect ZERO data.

OpenBoard is an open-source, local-first application. We do not collect, store, transmit, or monetize any of your personal data, whiteboards, diagrams, prompt histories, or usage analytics.

1. Local Storage

All canvas data, shapes, text, connectors, board titles, and settings are stored locally on your device in an embedded SQLite database located at ~/.openboard/openboard.db.

2. No Analytics or Telemetry

The OpenBoard application contains zero analytics trackers, telemetry libraries, error-reporting beacons, or advertising SDKs.

3. Model Context Protocol (MCP) Communications

All communications between AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) and OpenBoard occur locally via standard input/output (stdio) or localhost HTTP/SSE streams. No data is transmitted to external servers by OpenBoard.

4. Open Source Verification

Because OpenBoard is 100% open-source under the MIT license, you can inspect the full source code on GitHub at github.com/atpaawej/openboard to verify our security and privacy guarantees.
