This website
Static pages are served by a hosting provider and a CDN that processes IP addresses and access logs. A visit counter from statinside.com records page visits for each page load.
Pressing the download button records time, IP address, browser user agent and referral source to count downloads before redirecting to the installer.
The MapAperture app
The application runs locally on your PC and sends no telemetry data to any server. Your chats, working folders and API keys are stored on your PC, and prompts go to the model endpoint you choose.
Secrets in tool output are redacted before they reach the model and prompts go only to the endpoint you pick. The installer is not code-signed yet so you must compare its SHA-256 checksum with the published manifest using certutil.
Optional features that use the network
Web search can optionally run over an anonymizing network to protect your identity while fetching documentation. Control of chats from a phone browser uses one outbound connection that you can switch off entirely.
Update checks require a network connection to notify you when a new version is ready.
Your choices
You choose between a cloud AI provider or a model running locally on your PC for every session. With a local model nothing leaves the machine and nothing is sent to a model endpoint outside your PC.
You can switch off optional network features. The app shows an Update button when a new version is ready for installation.
Contact
You can send feedback directly from the app using the Send feedback button inside the interface.
You can verify the checksum of the downloaded file to ensure integrity before running it.
