Privacy

The short version

WaitBite never stores or sends your prompts, code, file paths, tool arguments or transcripts. It works without an account.

On your Mac

When your agent starts or finishes, a small helper receives the event from the agent. That input can include your prompt. The helper reads the session ID in memory and discards the rest. It sends the event type, session ID, time and the bundle ID of the app running the agent to the WaitBite app, over 127.0.0.1 only. The app uses the bundle ID to skip a notification when you're already in that window, and to bring that window forward when you click one.

WaitBite keeps your settings, your flashcards and a history of your waits on your Mac. Each wait records the agent, start time, duration and content type, with no project or prompt. Delete all of it from Settings in one click. That keeps your license and agent connections, which you can remove separately.

What leaves your Mac

Sponsor feed: once a day the app downloads one public file. Your IP address reaches the host, as with any web request. We don't build profiles from it.

Sponsor counts: once a day the app sends views and clicks per campaign, with a random ID that changes daily. It contains no user or device ID. Turn off sponsor cards and both of these stop, and unsent counts are deleted. Pro users send neither.

License: if you buy Pro, your license key and activation ID go to Lemon Squeezy about once a day.

Content updates and accounts are optional and off by default. An account sends your email and password to Firebase Auth.

This website

If you join a waitlist or request a media kit, we store what you typed in Google Firebase and use it only to reply to you. Forms are rate-limited using your IP address, which is kept in memory for about a minute and never written down.

If analytics are on, we use a privacy-friendly tool with no cookies and no personal data, to count page views and four events: download clicks, waitlist signups, sponsor requests and demo plays.

Your choices

Turn off notifications or sponsor cards in Settings. Remove an agent connection there too; only WaitBite's own hooks are removed. To have your waitlist or media kit details deleted, reply to any email we've sent you.
