# Privacy Policy for VSCode AI Cost Tracker

**Last updated:** 2026-07-16

## Data Collection

VSCode AI Cost Tracker **does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data or usage data**.

## What Data Is Stored

The extension stores the following data **locally on your machine** using VS Code's built-in `globalState` storage:

- AI model names and provider names (e.g., "GPT-4o", "openai")
- Timestamp of each AI call
- Token counts (input and output)
- Calculated cost values

This data never leaves your machine. It is stored in VS Code's local state storage and can be cleared at any time via the "Clear All Data" command.

## Network Access

This extension **makes no network connections of any kind**. It does not:
- Send data to any server
- Load remote resources
- Use telemetry
- Track usage analytics
- Download updates (handled by VS Code Marketplace)

## Third-Party Services

This extension does not integrate with any third-party services. The pricing data is embedded in the extension package and does not require external API calls.

## Data Deletion

All stored data can be deleted at any time by:
1. Running the "VSCode-Tracker: Clear All Data" command from the command palette
2. Uninstalling the extension (VS Code automatically removes extension storage)

## Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this URL.
