Privacy Policy

How the LuciQA website and desktop app handle data.

This is a static website delivered through Cloudflare and a Hetzner server. The origin may keep short-lived operational logs. If configured, Cloudflare Web Analytics measures aggregate site use without an advertising tracker. We do not run a LuciQA account or AI request server.

The home page embeds a product video from YouTube in its privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com). When that section loads, your browser connects to Google, which receives your IP address and browser details. If you play the video, Google may store cookies and process usage data under its own privacy policy.

If you open this site through an affiliate link (a link containing ?aff=), your browser loads Lemon Squeezy’s affiliate script. It sends the page address, referrer and a device identifier derived from browser characteristics to Lemon Squeezy and stores an ls_aff_ref cookie so a later purchase can be credited to that affiliate. Visitors who arrive any other way do not load this script.

In the desktop app, OCR runs locally using bundled recognition data for all nine supported app languages. Selected OCR text or cropped images, and any Pro Reference document or Custom system instruction, are sent directly to the AI providers you configure. Their privacy terms apply. AI answers may contain sensitive or incorrect information.

API keys are stored in local application settings and encrypted using the operating system’s secure credential service when available. The app requires secure storage to use keys. A configured provider receives its key with each request. Do not capture or submit information you lack permission to share.

Purchases take place on Lemon Squeezy as Merchant of Record. It handles checkout, receipts and license keys under its own notices. Email [email protected] for access, privacy or deletion questions.
