DeviceLink accesses files and folders only in response to explicit user requests (e.g., "list files", "open README.md"). If you do not request an action, DeviceLink does not access files.
DeviceLink communicates externally only as needed to generate responses. When a file is requested for reading or analysis, relevant file content may be transmitted to OpenAI to generate the response.
DeviceLink transmits data externally only to fulfill your explicit request. Here are typical examples:
| Your request | What may be shared | Boundaries |
|---|---|---|
| "List files in this folder" | File/folder names and relative paths | Only within shared roots |
| "Open README.md" | The file content (or requested portion) | Only what's needed to respond |
| "Search for TODO in src/" | Match snippets/lines (bounded) | Limits on matches/files to avoid broad scans |
DeviceLink does not upload or index your folders in the background. See Privacy Policy for what DeviceLink does not access (password stores, clipboard, screen, camera, mic, etc.).
Operational logs may include timestamps, request IDs, and high-level error messages. We avoid logging file contents, private keys, and OAuth tokens.
