Privacy Policy

Zolt is designed around a simple rule: your database work should stay on your machine unless you decide otherwise.

Last updated: July 7, 2026

01

Zolt is built for developers who do not want a database client to watch their work. The app is designed so database queries, schemas, connection strings, credentials, AI prompts, and AI responses stay on your device unless you choose to send them somewhere else.

This Privacy Policy explains what limited information we collect through the website, purchases, license validation, and support.

02

Website visits may create standard server logs such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, referrer, and timestamp. We use this to keep the site secure and diagnose outages.

If you buy a paid plan, Polar processes checkout information such as name, email address, billing address, tax information, payment status, order number, and license or renewal status. Zolt receives the information needed to deliver and validate your license.

If you join the beta waitlist, request support, or email us, we collect the email address, message contents, attachments, and troubleshooting details you choose to send.

03

The website uses localStorage for small preferences such as color theme and waitlist acknowledgement. Current website builds do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking cookies.

Polar checkout, email, hosting, or security providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies when you visit their services. Their policies apply to those third-party surfaces.

04

Current desktop builds are designed not to collect your database rows, query text, schema names, connection strings, saved queries, query history, SSH keys, database passwords, AI provider keys, AI prompts, or AI responses.

Credentials are designed to live in the operating system keychain. License validation may check license key status, activation status, app version, and coarse device activation data, but it is not used to transmit database content.

05

We use collected information to provide the website, deliver license keys, validate paid features, process refunds, answer support requests, prevent fraud or abuse, comply with law, and improve reliability.

We do not sell personal information. We do not use your database work or AI prompts for advertising or model training.

06

Where privacy law requires a legal basis, we process purchase and license information to perform a contract, security and fraud-prevention data for legitimate interests, billing and tax records for legal obligations, and optional waitlist or marketing messages with consent where required.

You can withdraw from optional waitlist or marketing emails by contacting unclegrape1975@gmail.com or using any unsubscribe mechanism included in the message.

07

We use service providers for payment processing, license delivery, hosting, email, and support. Polar handles checkout and payment processing for paid licenses, update renewals, and Team seats.

AI integrations are bring-your-own-key. Zolt does not proxy AI requests through Zolt servers. If you connect an AI provider, that provider's privacy terms apply to your use of that provider.

We do not sell personal information. We also do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are commonly used in U.S. state privacy laws.

08

We keep purchase, license, support, and security records only as long as needed for billing, tax, fraud prevention, support, legal compliance, and product operations.

You may request deletion of support or account records by emailing unclegrape1975@gmail.com. Some records may need to be retained where required for tax, accounting, dispute, or legal reasons.

09

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards for the limited data we process. No system can be guaranteed perfectly secure.

You are responsible for protecting your devices, database credentials, AI provider keys, and backups.

010

You can cancel renewals or Team annual billing through Polar. You can ask to access, correct, export, or delete personal information by contacting unclegrape1975@gmail.com.

If you are in a region with specific privacy rights, we will respond to applicable rights requests as required by law. Depending on your location, those rights may include access, deletion, correction, portability, restriction, objection, opt-out, or non-discrimination rights.

011

Privacy questions can be sent to unclegrape1975@gmail.com. Include the email address tied to your license if the request concerns a purchase or renewal.
