Privacy
The short version
Silan keeps your work on your Mac. The app has no ads, no analytics and no crash reporting. The website counts visits and downloads without cookies and without knowing who you are. We see only the data listed on this page.
The website
This website sets no cookies and runs no ads or trackers.
It uses Vercel Web Analytics to count visits. For each visit it records the page, the site that sent you, your country, and your browser and device type. It does not use cookies and does not identify you. We count downloads the same way, as visits to the download page.
It is hosted on Vercel, which keeps standard server logs.
The Silan app
The Silan app keeps your runs, screenshots and run videos on your Mac.
The screens the agent looks at, and your words, go to the AI provider behind that agent, under that provider’s terms.
Apart from update checks, billing and Team, data leaves your Mac only to services you choose: your AI provider, Apple when you set up an iPhone for control, and any AI or password tools you connect. They follow their own privacy rules.
Vault logins stay in your Mac’s Keychain. They are never sent to the AI provider.
Updates and downloads
The app checks for new versions at downloads.getsilan.app, which runs on Cloudflare. Each check sends your IP address and the app’s name and version, nothing else. To turn the checks off, go to Settings › General › Check for updates automatically.
When you download Silan, Cloudflare sees your IP address.
Billing
When you open Settings › Account & Team, the app asks our server which plan you have. If you have a paid licence, the app also refreshes it from time to time. Payments are handled by Stripe. We never see your full card number.
Team
You sign in only to use Team. Sign-in is by WorkOS, which keeps your email, name and sign-in sessions for us.
Our team server keeps each person’s email and name; teams, roles and invites; each Mac’s name, public key, and first and last connection time; sign-in sessions (tokens only as hashes); each Mac’s daily frame and byte counts; a record of changes to the team; and a record of sign-outs and removals. It is backed up to storage in Germany.
It keeps no billing data, no IP addresses, and no phone screens, taps or chat.
When you share a phone with your team, its screen, your taps and typing, and the team chat are encrypted end to end between Macs. The team server passes this sealed data along and cannot open it. It does see which phones are shared (name and model), who is using them, and how much data flows.
If you email juwon@getsilan.app, we use your address only to reply to you. Our email runs on Google Workspace. We keep your email and our replies.
Waitlist
