Open Code Bot is an AI assistant app that lets you chat with AI providers using your own API keys, run an on-device coding agent in your own project folders, browse the web in an in-app browser, and optionally run AI models fully on your device. This policy explains what data the app handles and where it goes.
Data stored on your device
- Conversations, projects and files you create are stored on your device (in the app's storage and, if you allow it, in the public "OpenCodeBot" folder on your phone). They are not uploaded to us.
- API keys you enter for AI providers (such as OpenRouter, Groq, Gemini, NVIDIA NIM, or your own custom endpoints) are stored only on your device, encrypted with Android's security libraries. We never receive them.
- Settings and preferences are stored on your device.
Data sent to third parties you choose
- When you send a chat message or run an agent task, your message, conversation context and any files the agent reads are sent directly from your device to the AI provider you selected, using your own API key. Each provider handles that data under its own privacy policy. There is no Apex Studio server in between.
- The in-app browser loads the websites you or the agent visit; those sites are governed by their own policies.
- If you connect optional third-party services inside the app (for example via Composio), data flows between your device and those services under their policies, using the account key you provide.
Advertising (free version)
The free version shows ads provided by Google AdMob. Google may collect and use device identifiers (including the Android advertising ID), approximate location, and ad interaction data to serve and measure ads, as described in Google's Privacy Policy. If you purchase the Pro upgrade, ads are removed and the ads SDK is not started.
Purchases
The optional Pro upgrade is a one-time purchase processed by Google Play Billing. We do not receive or store your payment details. Google Play tells the app whether your account owns the Pro upgrade so ads can be turned off, including on a new device.
On-device AI models
If you download a local model, inference runs entirely on your device. Nothing about those conversations leaves your phone through the app.
What we do not do
- We do not operate servers that receive your chats, files or API keys.
- We do not sell personal data.
- The app has no user accounts and no sign-up.
Children
Open Code Bot is a developer/productivity tool and is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this same address with a new "last updated" date.
