Oxbit

Privacy

Updated October 2, 2026

Oxbit is published by Ryan Yannelli. This policy covers the Oxbit editor on iPhone, iPad, desktop, and in the browser, and the oxbit.dev website.

Information kept on your device

Oxbit reads and edits files in workspaces you open. The iPhone and iPad app stores settings, recent workspaces, and workspace interface state in its app storage. It stores connection credentials and GitHub tokens in the device Keychain. Access to folders selected through Files uses security-scoped bookmarks. Files you choose through Files can be stored by your selected provider, including iCloud Drive.

Browser workspaces can store files, settings, layout, and drafts in browser storage. Desktop and connected runtime workspaces use files and state on the computer running them. Oxbit uses this information to reopen workspaces and provide editing features.

Connections you choose

Connecting to a computer or remote runtime sends the requests needed to use that workspace, including file, terminal, Git, task, and language-service operations. SSH workspaces and collaboration connect to the hosts or people you select. Collaboration can share workspace content with participants you authorize.

Git operations contact the remotes you configure. AI agents, extensions, and remote URLs you choose can send prompts, files, or other workspace data to their configured services. Those services handle received data under their own policies.

HTML previews block external resources by default. If you allow external resources for a preview or open an external link, your device contacts those sites and they can receive request information such as your IP address.

Website and support

oxbit.dev is served through Cloudflare, which processes request information such as IP address, browser details, and requested pages to deliver and operate the site. The homepage loads fonts from Google Fonts, which also receives requests from your browser. See Cloudflare's privacy policy and Google Fonts privacy information. This privacy page uses local styles and system fonts.

If you open a support request or issue on GitHub, the information you submit is visible according to GitHub's settings for that public repository.

Your choices and retention

You can stop optional connections, remove recent workspaces in the iPhone and iPad app, and remove credentials through the relevant connection controls. Forgetting a recent workspace removes its shortcut; it does not delete files in that folder. You can delete files where they are stored and clear app or browser storage through your device or browser settings. Data sent to Git remotes, AI services, collaborators, or other sites is subject to those services' controls and retention practices.
