Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

Overview

Tusk is a desktop application that runs locally on your computer. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

Data We Collect

Local Data: Your database connections, queries, and credentials are stored locally on your device. We do not have access to this data.

Pro/Team Features: If you use AI-powered features, queries are sent to our servers for processing. We do not store your query data beyond what is necessary to provide the service.

License Validation: We validate license keys to verify your subscription status. This includes your license key and basic device information.

Data Security

Database credentials are encrypted using your operating system's secure storage (Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows, Secret Service on Linux). We use industry-standard encryption for all data transmitted to our servers.

Third-Party Services

Pro and Team features use AI services to process natural language queries. These services have their own privacy policies. We do not share your data with third parties for advertising purposes.
