Privacy Policy
Epitome doesn't collect any data about you. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads and no tracking, and the developer has no server that your pages or summaries could reach.
Where your pages are read
When you ask for a summary or ask a question about a page, Epitome takes the text of that page (or of the passage you selected) and hands it to the Apple language model built into macOS. The model runs on your Mac. The text is used for that one summary or answer and is not kept.
Very long pages (Pro)
With Pro, a page too long for the model on your Mac can be summarized by Apple's Private Cloud Compute instead. In that case the page text goes to Apple's servers, which process it for that request only and don't store it; neither Apple nor the developer can see it. Apple describes how this works at security.apple.com. You can turn this off in Epitome's settings in Safari; long pages are then shortened to fit your Mac instead.
What stays on your Mac
- Your settings (summary length, language and the cloud option), stored by Safari for the extension.
- The latest summary for each open tab, until you close the tab or quit Safari. Page chats are kept only in memory and are gone when you leave the page.
- Whether you have Pro, and how many free Pro tries are left.
- When you send a summary to Notes, it is passed to the Epitome app through a file on your Mac that the app deletes as soon as it has read it.
None of this leaves your Mac, except through your own Safari or iCloud settings.
Purchases
Pro is bought through the App Store. Apple handles the payment; the developer receives no payment details or personal information, only the App Store's confirmation that Pro is unlocked.
Children
Epitome collects no data from anyone, including children.
