Terms of Service
Terms for using the CoWork OS website, app, open-source project, downloads, documentation, and optional integrations.
Acceptance
These Terms of Service govern use of the CoWork OS website, desktop app, open-source software, downloads, documentation, and related services. By using CoWork OS, you agree to these terms.
If you are using CoWork OS for an organization, you represent that you have authority to accept these terms for that organization.
Open-source software
CoWork OS is distributed as open-source software through the CoWork OS GitHub repository. Your rights to copy, modify, distribute, and contribute to the source code are governed by the applicable license in the repository.
These terms apply to the public website, downloads, documentation, support interactions, hosted surfaces, and app usage that is not otherwise governed by the open-source license.
Your responsibilities
You are responsible for how you configure and use CoWork OS, including the providers, accounts, plugins, channels, files, permissions, prompts, and automations you connect.
- Use appropriate permissions and review sensitive agent actions before approval.
- Comply with laws, third-party service terms, workplace policies, and data-protection obligations that apply to your use.
- Keep your devices, API keys, OAuth grants, repositories, and connected accounts secure.
- Do not use CoWork OS to violate rights, bypass access controls, distribute malware, abuse services, or perform unlawful activity.
Connected services and providers
CoWork OS can connect to third-party services such as model providers, Google APIs, messaging platforms, repositories, storage, calendars, email, and deployment systems. Those services are provided by their respective operators and are subject to their own terms and policies.
You authorize CoWork OS to access and process connected-service data only as needed for the workflows you request or configure. You may need to revoke access directly through the third-party provider.
Google API Data
CoWork OS's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
When you connect a Google account, CoWork OS requests only the permissions needed for the features you enable. Two connection modes are available:
- Gmail Only: read, send, label, and modify email messages.
- Full Workspace: Gmail capabilities plus Google Drive, Calendar, Sheets, Docs, Slides, Tasks, and Chat.
CoWork OS does not sell Google user data, use it for advertising or ad targeting, or use it to train generalized AI or machine learning models.
OAuth tokens and credentials are stored locally on your device using encrypted operating-system credential storage (macOS Keychain, Windows DPAPI, or Linux libsecret) and are never transmitted to CoWork OS servers. You may revoke access at any time from the app's settings or from your Google Account permissions page.
User content and outputs
You retain rights you already have in prompts, files, messages, data, and other content you provide to CoWork OS. You are responsible for ensuring you have the rights needed to process that content through the app and connected providers.
AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, unsafe, or unsuitable for your purpose. You are responsible for reviewing outputs, decisions, code changes, messages, or external actions before relying on them.
Privacy
The CoWork OS Privacy Policy explains how information is handled. By using CoWork OS, you also agree to the data handling choices you make when connecting providers and third-party services.
Data Retention and Deletion
CoWork OS is a local-first application. Workspace content, integration data, logs, and OAuth tokens reside on your device and are not uploaded to CoWork OS servers. You may delete local app data, revoke connected accounts, remove OAuth grants, and delete generated outputs at any time using the application, your operating system, or provider account settings. When you disconnect a Google account in CoWork OS, the associated OAuth tokens are removed from local encrypted storage immediately.
Disclaimers
CoWork OS is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee that the website, downloads, documentation, app, integrations, or AI outputs will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose.
You should independently verify important outputs and maintain backups, access controls, incident plans, and human review for sensitive workflows.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, CoWork OS and its contributors will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data loss, security incidents, business interruption, or third-party service failures arising from your use of CoWork OS.
Changes and availability
We may change, suspend, or discontinue parts of the website, downloads, documentation, or services at any time. We may update these terms as the project evolves. The updated date above shows when the current version took effect.
