privacy policy.

Last updated 28 October 2026. This policy covers the Slate iPhone app and the Slate service behind it ("Slate", "we").

What Slate stores

Cloudflare, which runs Slate, processes your IP address to deliver each request. Slate has no ads, no analytics and no tracking, and never sells your data.

What stays on your phone

Your OpenRouter key lives in your phone's keychain and is sent with each request over HTTPS. So that your routines can run while your phone is away, Slate also keeps one encrypted copy of it on its server, used only to run your routines. That copy is deleted when you have no active routines, switch your brain to Instinct, disconnect OpenRouter, OpenRouter stops accepting the key, or you delete your account. Your Slate session and Google sign-in stay on your phone.

Who receives your data

We may also disclose data if the law requires it.

Gmail

If you choose Instinct, Slate asks for permission to send email from your Gmail. It uses it only to send two kinds of email, both to the Instinct address you entered: one with your Instinct's private key, and a short notification (with no message content) when you message your Instinct or one of your routines is due. These emails stay in your Gmail's Sent folder like any email you send. Slate can't read, change or delete your mail, and its access stays on your phone.

Slate can also send these emails from its own Gmail mailbox instead, so you don't have to give it access to yours. Then Google handles them for Slate: the key email and the notifications go from Slate's address to your Instinct's address, Slate deletes each one from its mailbox once it's sent, and it deletes any mail that arrives unread. Slate limits how many emails it sends for each account per day.

Slate's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Your choices and rights

You can disconnect OpenRouter or Instinct in your profile at any time. To delete everything, open your profile and tap Delete account: your page, chat, archive, the agent's notes, activity records and your account are erased from Slate's server immediately, and your Sign in with Apple authorization is revoked. Data already sent to OpenRouter, a model provider or your Instinct is held under their policies.

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU and UK, or the CCPA in California), you can ask for a copy of your data, its correction or its deletion, and object to its processing. Email us and we'll answer within 30 days. We process your data to provide the service you asked for. Slate's servers may be outside your country.

Children

Slate is not for children under 13 (or under 16 where local law sets a higher age) and we don't knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has used Slate, email us and we'll delete their data.

Changes

We'll update the date above when this policy changes, and tell you in the app about important changes.
