Sharing Usage Data

Tessl is committed to our users’ privacy, and protecting your data is our top priority.

The nature of Tessl’s product requires it to see and participate in AI exchanges, and that may include sensitive and precious data. We take great care to earn the trust of handling such data, and want to be clear and transparent to our users about this.

Opt out of sharing telemetry and usage data

Tessl collects telemetry and usage data from its CLI and cloud service usage, and uses this to improve product quality, guide roadmap priorities and troubleshoot user issues. This may include conversations, code snippets and file contents used to guide Tessl actions.

All data is encrypted at rest and well protected, and you can ask to delete this data at any time.

You can easily opt out of data collection at any time by following the steps here. Doing so will ensure Tessl doesn’t see your data for local actions, and doesn’t persist it for cloud data. Opting out will not disable or hinder your AI usage, but may make it harder to troubleshoot issues with support.

Tessl collaborates with highly trusted cloud LLM providers

Tessl partners with the top AI labs to service our users. We take great care to only use providers with a strong security posture, and while we pass some data to those services as part of our product’s operation, we do not grant those partners any rights to your data.

Since Spec-Driven Development is a newer concept, we provide guidance and occasional data sets to our LLM partners, but those are always custom data sets we compose, never your private data.

The most notable partners we work closely with are OpenAI, Anthropic and Google.

Tessl uses your data to make our products better for you

The sole purpose of data collection is to understand you, our users, and improve our products for you. We do not sell or monetize your data, and have absolutely no intent to do so.

We reserve the right to train on data collected from our free tier usage, but have never done so to date. Instead, we focus our AI tuning on public data and purposely created synthetic data sets.

If you have any questions or feedback, please email us at [email protected]. For more information on how we collect, use, disclose and process your personal data, see our full Privacy & Cookie Policy
