How we think about privacy
Hearth does not phone home. There is no account, no telemetry, no remote kill switch, no subscription. Voice recognition runs on-device. Integrations run on-device. The only network connections Hearth makes are to the services you configure on your own network.
Everything the device can do is visible in the firmware, which is open source. You can read it, audit it, and run it yourself.

What we collect from this site
- Email address when you submit the waitlist or contact form. Stored in a self-hosted SQLite database on our server.
- Aggregate, anonymous pageview analytics via self-hosted Umami at

What we do with it
We use your email only to send you an update when Hearth is available to buy, and never for anything else. We do not share, sell, or transfer the list to any third party.
Retention
Waitlist entries are kept until you ask us to remove them or until 18 months after launch, whichever comes first.
