Your project data stays with you.

storybloq is an independent project distributed as-is under the terms of its license. It is available as a Mac app (listed on the App Store as .story), a CLI/MCP server (the npm package storybloq), and a Claude Code plugin. For privacy questions, open an issue on GitHub.

The storybloq CLI, MCP server, and Claude Code plugin operate entirely locally. They read and write .story/ files on your machine and communicate only with the local Claude Code process. They do not include analytics, telemetry, or crash reporting. No data is sent anywhere.

The Mac app (.story on the App Store, storybloq elsewhere) stores all project data locally in a .story/ directory inside your project folder. Tickets, issues, handovers, and roadmap files never leave your machine. The app reads these files directly from disk.

The Mac app includes optional anonymous analytics and crash reporting. They are off by default. On first launch you’ll see a one-time prompt asking whether to enable them; you can also change your choice any time in Settings.

When enabled, we use two services.

• Sentry GmbH (Frankfurt, EU) for crash reports and performance traces. Crash stack traces are collected with home directory paths replaced by ~ before upload. Each report includes app version, macOS version, build number, and whether experimental features are enabled. Session health data (app launch/close, session duration, crash-free rate) is tracked anonymously. Performance traces are sampled at 10%. No personal information is sent (sendDefaultPii = false). Sentry privacy policy.
• TelemetryDeck GmbH (EU) for usage analytics. We track which features are used (e.g., notes panel opened, terminal launched), error categories (e.g., file load failure), and bucketed project sizes (ticket and issue counts grouped into ranges like 0, 1-5, 6-20, 21-50, 50+). No exact counts, no project names, no ticket content. TelemetryDeck privacy policy.

• Project names or directory paths
• Ticket titles, descriptions, or content
• Issue details or handover text
• Source code
• Personal information (name, email, IP address)
• Keystrokes or screen content

Storybloq does not collect analytics or crash reports unless you opt in. On first launch you’ll see a consent prompt with Don’t Allow and Allow Analytics & Crash Reports buttons; choose either. To change your choice later, open Settings (gear icon) → Privacy and toggle “Send anonymous usage data and crash reports” on or off. The toggle takes effect immediately. Your preference is stored locally on your device and persists across launches.
