Effective Date: April 2, 2026
Contact: jackson@lalime.ai
1. Who We Are
Lalime is an AI-powered PC repair application for Windows, developed and operated by LLime LLC, a Texas limited liability company ("Llime" "we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect when you use Lalime, how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights regarding that data.
2. Who This Policy Applies To
Lalime is intended for users aged 13 and older. Users between 13 and 17 must have parental or guardian consent to use the application. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If we learn that a user is under 13, we will delete their data promptly. If you believe a child under 13 has used Lalime, contact us at jackson@lalime.ai.
3. Data We Collect
Lalime operates by running an AI-driven repair session on your PC. During a session, our cloud-hosted system also may request third-party tools that execute on your computer. The output of our software and those tools may be transmitted to our servers, and also may be included in the AI model's context.
3.1 Data You Provide Directly
- Communications: When you contact us or we correspond with you.
- Site Visits: When you visit the website and/or utilize or interact with our sites.
- Purchase Information: When you become a customer, register with a site, or make a purchase.
- Voluntary contributions: When you provide information, such as user contributed content, blog or social media comments, survey information or join our mailing list.
- Account information: When you sign in via Google OAuth, we receive your email address, display name, Firebase UID, and profile photo URL.
- Problem descriptions: Free-text descriptions of your PC issue, follow-up messages, and chat history from your repair session.
- Screenshots: If you choose to attach a screenshot, it is read from your disk, optionally compressed, sent to our servers, and stored in Firebase Storage. Screenshots may be included as input to the AI model.
- Tool approvals and denials: Your decisions on high-permission repair steps, including any reasons you provide when denying an action.
- Settings: Your configured preferences, including protected folder lists, auto-approval preferences, and diagnostic opt-in status.
3.2 Data Collected Automatically From Your PC
During a repair session, the following data may be read from your computer and transmitted to our servers as part of the session:
- File system: Contents of specific files, directory listings (file names, sizes, modification times), and file existence checks for paths the AI targets or that you direct it toward. Writes and deletions are also logged.
- Windows Registry: Registry values, key listings, and subkey previews under paths accessed during the repair. Registry data may include installed software configuration, Windows product IDs, and system paths.
- Shell output (PowerShell / CMD): Standard output, error output, and exit codes from commands executed during the repair. Shell output may incidentally include environment details, file paths, service states, network configuration, or other system information printed by the command.
- System information: Windows version and build, computer name, Windows account username, processor model and architecture, CPU core count, memory usage, disk usage per drive, and IPv4 addresses of active network adapters.
- Event logs: Entries from Windows System, Application, Security, or Setup logs, filtered by level and time window.
- Installed applications: Display name, version, publisher, install date, and install location for applications found in the Windows registry.
- Running processes: Process ID, image name, thread count, memory usage, and executable path for running processes.
- Windows services: Service name, display name, status, and process ID for services queried during the repair.
- Downloaded files: URLs, file names, sizes, and hash verification status for files downloaded to your system by the repair session (from approved sources only).
Important: Shell command output and file reads are session- and user-dependent. While we apply path restrictions and block access to credential directories (e.g., SSH, GnuPG), permitted paths may still contain sensitive personal data — such as API keys, passwords stored in config files, or document file names — if you or the AI directs a tool there. We do not intentionally target personal documents, but we cannot guarantee that session data is free of such content. You are fully responsible for the security of such information and assessing whether such information is appropriate with our service.
3.3 Data Stored on Your PC
Data may be stored locally on your machine also, including but not limited to:
- Authentication tokens (
%LocalAppData%\LAPCR\auth.json) - UI state (
%LocalAppData%\LAPCR\imgui.ini) - Debug logs (
%LocalAppData%\LAPCR\logs) - Local session persistence files for resuming repairs
4. How We Use Your Data
We use the data we collect to:
- Operate and deliver the services
- Provide session context to the AI model
- Manage our business and our relationship
- Store and display your repair and account history
- Process payments and manage your account
- Perform analysis of our business and your usage
- Improve the software, models and services, including the reliability and accuracy of Lalime
- Resolve disputes and investigate abuse
- Comply with legal obligations, fight fraud, improve security and pursue legal actions.
- Perform other activities as instructed by your or otherwise described to you at the time of collection.
If you have opted into diagnostics, we also use aggregated, non-personally-identifiable repair metrics (e.g., session duration, tool counts, success/failure flags) to improve the product.
LLime may use your IP address to, among other things, maintain logs of site activity, help diagnose problems with software, servers and to administer the website. Your IP address may also be used to help identify you and your online profile and to gather broad demographic information.
We may also use and disclose statements made about Llime or our sites, such as feedback, testimonials or reviews, by our customers, users and other contacts.
