Privacy & control
You choose what Camus can capture and whether summaries can leave your Mac. Local capture and cloud processing are separate choices.
Where your data goes
On your Mac
Your work journal stays encrypted on your Mac. Detected secrets are filtered locally.
The published policy specifies a 14-day retention period for the encrypted local journal. Other data has its own retention rules in the privacy policy.
With your consent
After separate cloud consent, redacted summaries can go to Camus’s servers. Some processing happens there.
Enabling Mac capture does not grant cloud consent. Detected secrets are removed before a summary is sent.
Capture boundaries
Recognized password managers, banking, health, HR, payroll, and private windows are blocked from capture.
Email, messaging, terminals, and calls are metadata-only contexts, without message bodies or transcripts.
Recognition has limits. Review drafts for confidential details before you publish or share them.
The controls
You can pause capture and summary sending at any time.
You can inspect attempted sends and their outcomes.
You review, publish, and send. Camus prepares the content for your judgment.
The practical questions
Your raw journal stays encrypted on your Mac. Redacted summaries can leave after separate cloud consent, and some processing happens on Camus’s servers.
The 14-day period applies to the encrypted local journal. Other data has separate retention rules. The privacy policy explains those rules.
No. Camus does not read private LinkedIn messages or send messages on your behalf. You review, publish, and send.
The V2 plan keeps personal journals, chats, and voice examples private, including from admins. Shared knowledge, drafts, and prospects have explicit permissions. Internal access does not automatically permit public reuse.
This is the team product direction, beyond the current individual beta. Read the V2 plan.
