AI and your data
Where files are handled
Section titled “Where files are handled”The desktop app opens, edits, and saves files on your computer. Chats, recovery copies, and some AI results may be stored in the app data folder or the project folder. Files in synced folders may be sent to the sync service.
What an AI request can include
Section titled “What an AI request can include”Depending on the editor and action, the provider may receive relevant file content, attachments, prompts, and conversation history. Its policies and your account settings govern retention. A local AI connection uses the address you configure. Check whether it is your own computer or a remote server.
Costs and usage limits
Section titled “Costs and usage limits”Onyou Office is free and open source. Subscriptions, API charges, and limits depend on the selected provider and connection. Saving a key or signing in does not necessarily make that connection active.
Scope, redaction, and saved output
Section titled “Scope, redaction, and saved output”Send only what the task needs. Redaction support varies. An agent reading a file directly can see original content that is masked in the editor. Check what the AI can access, review its result, and verify what was saved.
External tools
Section titled “External tools”Search, MCP tools, and other integrations may send data to their own services. Review permissions and the destination before enabling or calling them.
Read the privacy notice, connection guide, or private support instructions.
