PRIVACY
Mouse Captain privacy policy
1. Scope
This policy covers the Mouse Captain macOS app, Everdrift account services and related staging online capabilities. The operator is Everdrift Digital Technology (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., registered in Guangzhou, Guangdong, People's Republic of China. Send privacy and support requests to support@everdrift.cn.
2. Data that stays on your Mac by default
Screenshots, OCR results, notes, clipboard contents, local indexes and local settings are processed and stored on your Mac by default. Inputs and outputs for Apple's local models are also processed on the device.
Unless you actively choose hosted AI, sync, feedback uploads or another explicitly online feature, Everdrift does not automatically obtain this content when you install or open the app.
3. Account, device and service data
When using Sign in with Apple, the service may process Apple's stable account identifier and any name or relay email address you choose to provide. To maintain sign-in and entitlements, it also processes account IDs, sessions, authorized devices, product entitlements, credit balances, credit transactions and policy consent records.
The service generates necessary records without prompt or response bodies, such as request IDs, features, models, status, token counts, estimated costs, timestamps, environments and error categories, for billing, limits, reliability, security investigations and audits.
4. Hosted AI and third-party processing
Only when you actively invoke hosted AI is the text and instruction needed for your request passed through Everdrift's Singapore staging service to the model provider clearly shown in the interface for that request. Providers may include DeepSeek or others added later. A provider change does not alter the principle of informing you first and requiring you to initiate the request. Everdrift's current database does not store prompt or response bodies, but providers may process data under their own policies.
Processing regions and cross-border routes depend on the provider selected for each request. Required notices, consent and cross-border assessments must still be completed for the actual routes before public availability. Do not submit passwords, keys, identity documents, health information or other unnecessary sensitive information.
When using your own API key, the client sends requests directly to your selected provider. Everdrift does not receive complete requests, responses or provider bills.
5. Purposes and choices
- Create and protect accounts, maintain sign-in sessions and authorized devices;
- Verify subscriptions, credits, allowances and product entitlements;
- Complete hosted AI requests that you actively initiate;
- Diagnose failures, prevent abuse, process refunds and meet audit requirements;
- Record policy versions and your choices.
Hosted AI, your own API keys and local capabilities are separate paths. Turning off hosted AI should not prevent core operations that can run locally.
6. Current staging retention periods
| Data category | Current arrangement |
|---|---|
| AI prompt and response bodies in Everdrift's database | Not stored (0 days) |
| Used sign-in challenges | 1 hour |
| Expired or revoked sessions | 30 days |
| AI request metadata excluding bodies | 30 days |
| Risk and circuit-breaker events | 30 days |
| Daily aggregated user cost records | 400 days |
| Encrypted database backups | 14 days |
| Credit transactions, audits and payment evidence | Final retention period to be confirmed |
7. Your rights
You can view your account, sessions, devices, entitlements, credit transactions and policy records in the account center, and sign out sessions, export account data or request account deletion. Legally required records that cannot be deleted immediately should be isolated and their use restricted.
Send related requests to support@everdrift.cn. Everdrift plans to respond within 30 calendar days of receiving a request. For complex or numerous requests, this may be extended where applicable law permits, with an explanation provided within the original period. Any shorter legally required period takes precedence.
8. Security, changes and children
Everdrift uses transport encryption, restricted sessions, environment isolation, least privilege, audit records and encrypted backups. Material changes to providers, purposes, data categories, retention periods or cross-border routes will result in a new version and renewed consent where required.
Mouse Captain is not specifically intended for children under 14. Children under 14 may not create accounts or participate in staging independently. If such services are offered in future, Everdrift will first obtain consent from parents or other guardians and establish dedicated personal-information rules. Other minors should use the service with guardian guidance.
