Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 3, 2026

The Short Version

seQRets does not collect, store, transmit, or sell your data. Period.

All encryption, decryption, and secret splitting happens entirely in your browser. Your secrets, passwords, keyfiles, and Qards never leave your device. There are no user accounts, no cloud storage, no servers processing your data, and no telemetry of any kind.

No Tracking or Analytics

seQRets does not use any analytics, tracking pixels, fingerprinting, or telemetry services. There is:

  • No Google Analytics
  • No usage tracking
  • No error reporting services
  • No ad networks
  • No user behavior monitoring
Cookies and Local Storage

seQRets does not set any cookies. The app uses your browser's local storage solely for:

  • Theme preference — remembering your light/dark mode choice
  • Bob AI disclaimer — remembering that you acknowledged the AI disclaimer
  • Bob AI API key — your Gemini API key, if you choose to provide one (stored locally, never transmitted to seQRets)

This data stays on your device and is never sent anywhere.

Data Processing

All cryptographic operations are performed client-side in your browser:

  • Secrets are encrypted and split entirely on your device
  • QR codes are generated locally
  • Secret restoration happens locally
  • Inheritance plans are encrypted and decrypted locally

No data is sent to any seQRets server because there are no seQRets servers. The app is a static site hosted on GitHub Pages.

Bob AI Assistant (Optional)

Bob is an optional AI assistant powered by Google's Gemini API. If you choose to use Bob, your chat messages are sent directly from your browser to Google's servers for processing.

When using Bob:

  • Messages are sent to Google's Gemini API using your own API key
  • seQRets never sees, stores, or relays these messages
  • Google's Gemini API Terms of Service and privacy policies apply to those interactions
  • You are warned about this before your first use of Bob

Do not share secrets, passwords, seed phrases, or private keys with Bob.

External Network Requests

The seQRets web app makes only two optional external network requests:

  • Bitcoin price ticker — fetches the current BTC/USD price from the Coinbase public API. No user data is sent. This is a read-only, unauthenticated request.
  • Bob AI — if you choose to use it, chat messages are sent to Google's Gemini API (see above).

All core functionality (encryption, splitting, QR generation, restoration) works fully offline with no network access required.

Third-Party Services

The following third-party services may be involved when you use seQRets. Each has its own privacy policy and terms:

ServicePurposeData Shared
GitHub PagesHostingStandard server logs (IP, user agent)
Coinbase APIBitcoin price displayNone (unauthenticated read-only request)
Google Gemini APIBob AI Assistant (opt-in)Your queries, sent directly with your API key

Children's Privacy

seQRets is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since we do not collect personal information from anyone, this concern is moot in practice — but we state it here for completeness.

Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, the revised version will be posted here with an updated date. Because seQRets does not collect email addresses or user accounts, we cannot notify you directly of changes. Material changes — particularly any that involve new data collection — will also be noted in our GitHub repository.
