# Zhi privacy Zhi processes documents through local tools. Your chosen AI agent controls how prompts and source material reach its model provider. HTML version: ## This site The Zhi website is a static site hosted on Vercel. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and loads no third-party scripts, fonts, or images: the website's images and bundled typefaces are served from this site. There is no tag manager, no pixel, no A/B framework, and no consent banner, because there is nothing to consent to. One value is stored in your browser: `zhi-lang`, written to `localStorage` when you pick a language from the switcher, so the site stops redirecting you away from your choice. It never leaves the browser, and clearing site data removes it. Vercel hosts this website and may process request metadata such as IP addresses and user agents to serve the site and protect its infrastructure, under its own privacy policies. Release downloads are served by GitHub and are subject to GitHub's policies. ## The skill The Zhi skill, its templates, its scripts, and its MCP server all run locally inside whatever agent installed them. They contain no telemetry or crash reporting. The version checker can read the project's public VERSION file at most once a day; the font installer can download verified font bundles. These requests do not include document content. Rendered files stay on your disk; your chosen agent controls access to prompts and source material. Rendering may fetch remote images, stylesheets, or fonts referenced by your HTML using the machine's network access. Render trusted HTML only. The MCP server reads and writes with its process permissions; it provides rendering and checks without a sandbox. Whether your document text reaches a model provider is a property of the agent you use Zhi inside, not of Zhi. If you drive it with a hosted assistant, that assistant's privacy terms apply to the conversation. Zhi adds no additional destination. ## AI access policy Search engines, AI answer engines, and assistants acting for a user are welcome to read this site, quote it, and learn from it. Zhi code, templates, and documentation use the MIT license. Font files retain their separate terms in [THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md](https://github.com/okht/zhi/blob/main/THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md). The site states its content-access policy in [robots.txt](https://zhi.cht.me/robots.txt); those signals do not replace font licenses. Bulk archive crawlers that return no reader to the source are disallowed there by name to manage bandwidth. Questions about this policy can be raised through the [contact page](https://zhi.cht.me/contact.html). ## Elsewhere [Home](https://zhi.cht.me/) · [Developers](https://zhi.cht.me/developers.html) · [About](https://zhi.cht.me/about.html) · [Contact](https://zhi.cht.me/contact.html) · [Source](https://github.com/okht/zhi)
