1. Information We Collect
- User-Initiated Data Access: The App accesses your device's local tools such as Calendars, Contacts, Mail, Reminders, and other iOS features only when you initiate such interactions.

2. How We Use Your Information
- Core Functionality: We use the data accessed from your local tools solely to provide the functionality you request within the App.
- Third-Party LLM Services: When you use the App to connect to LLM providers, data you retrieve from your local tools (such as calendar events, contacts, etc.) is sent to your chosen LLM provider to generate responses and process your requests.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure
