PounceSQL is local-first. It runs entirely on your Mac. There are no accounts, no analytics, no telemetry, and no PounceApps server that your data passes through.
Last updated: 4 July 2026
Nothing. PounceApps does not operate any server that receives your data. We do not collect personal information, usage analytics, crash telemetry, or a device identifier. There is no sign-in.
Connections you create stay on your Mac. Database credentials and AI API keys are stored in the
macOS Keychain. Azure SQL uses your local az login session — no passwords are stored by
PounceSQL. Your queries and results are processed locally and are never sent to us.
The AI assistant is optional and off until you configure a provider. When you send a message, your prompt and the relevant context (such as your schema and query text) are sent directly to the AI provider you choose — OpenAI, Anthropic, your organization's AI gateway, or a fully local model via Ollama. That data is handled under that provider's privacy policy. With a local Ollama model, nothing leaves your machine. PounceApps does not proxy, log, or store these requests. The assistant and the built-in MCP tools are read-only by default.
PounceSQL's Model Context Protocol server listens on your local machine (localhost) so agents you run locally, like Claude Code, can drive the app. It is not exposed to the internet by PounceSQL.
PounceSQL is a developer tool and is not directed to children under 13.
