1. Overview & Commitment
Hyperion ("we," "our," or "us") is an open-source, local-first AI engineering workspace developed under the Hyperion-Workspace GitHub organization. We respect your privacy and are committed to maintaining transparency regarding the security and handling of your data.
2. Local-First Source Code & Data Storage
Hyperion operates as a client-side application (desktop and web). Your source code, local repositories, file contents, terminal execution logs, task history, and workspace settings remain stored exclusively on your local file system. We do not host, store, copy, or index your private source code on external servers.
3. AI Model API Keys & Prompt Dispatch
When using third-party Large Language Model (LLM) providers (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini):
- API Key Storage: Your API keys are encrypted locally using your operating system's native secure store (macOS Keychain, Windows Credential Manager, or Linux Secret Service).
- Direct Dispatch: Prompts and code context payloads are sent directly from your machine to the endpoint of your chosen AI provider. Hyperion does not operate intermediate proxy servers or inspect prompt traffic.
- Provider Policies: Data sent to external AI providers is governed by the respective terms and privacy policies of those providers.
4. Website Analytics & Cookies
Our website (https://www.hyperions.bond) uses minimal, privacy-respecting local storage strictly to remember user-selected preferences, such as theme (Light/Dark mode) and i18n language choice. We do not place third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking scripts.
5. Open-Source Transparency & Inquiries
As an open-source project hosted on GitHub, all code powering Hyperion is public and auditable. For privacy inquiries or security reports, please open an issue or discussion directly on our official repository at https://github.com/Hyperion-Workspace/Hyperion.
