Privacy and data flow

Effective August 21, 2026. SiliconForge is provided by Denis Miclea in Canada.

What leaves your computer

Only your request and the relative paths and minimized source excerpts disclosed in the send-bound context preview are sent to api.siliconforge.space when you press Send. The service sends that bounded material to OpenAI for the selected SiliconForge assistant route. Stripe processes checkout and billing information. Local validation artifacts and canonical project files are not uploaded automatically.

Retention

• Prompts and source context are processed in memory and are not written to SiliconForge logs.
• Encrypted structured results are retained for up to 24 hours for idempotent delivery.
• Prompt-free usage and security receipts are retained for 13 months.
• Support tickets are retained for 24 months.
• Billing records are retained for up to seven years where required.
• Local encrypted conversation and proposal records remain on your device until you remove them.

Controls

Tokens are installation-bound and stored in Windows Credential Manager or Linux Secret Service. You may revoke an installation or request access/deletion through support, subject to billing and legal retention duties.

Service providers

OpenAI provides managed model inference; Stripe provides payments. Neither customer API keys nor customer provider accounts are accepted.

This notice does not claim that AI output is confidential engineering advice or correct. Do not submit material you are not authorized to disclose.
