Comfy Companion — Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 9, 2026

Data collected by the developer

None. Comfy Companion has no developer-operated account system, analytics service, ad network, tracking SDK, or content backend. The app's privacy manifest declares no collected data types and no tracking domains.

User-directed generation

When you start a generation, the app may send your prompt, sketch, generation settings, and media you explicitly attached—including reference images, video, or audio—to the destination you chose:

• a ComfyUI server URL you configured; or
• a RunPod pod in your own RunPod account, if you opt into managed cloud setup.

Those systems are not operated by the developer. Their storage, logs, retention, security, and billing are governed by the configuration you control and the provider's terms and privacy policy.

RunPod

The optional cloud setup uses the RunPod API to list, create, inspect, and terminate GPU pods and to manage a persistent network volume in your account. Your RunPod API key is stored in the iOS Keychain and is sent only to RunPod when needed for an action you request. GPU compute and persistent storage are billed by RunPod, not by Comfy Companion. Terminating a pod stops pod compute/container billing; retained network-volume storage may continue to incur charges.

Permissions

• Photos: pick creative source/reference media and save exported images or videos.
• Camera: capture a reference when you choose that action.
• Microphone: dictate a prompt or use audio features you invoke.
• Speech recognition: convert dictated speech into prompt text. iOS may use Apple's speech service when on-device recognition is unavailable.
• Local network: reach a ComfyUI server on your network.

Stored on your device

The app stores preferences, host and deployment identifiers, creative history, and media you choose to retain in its sandbox. Secrets such as supported provider keys are stored in the iOS Keychain. Removing the app removes its sandboxed local data; provider-side resources such as a RunPod network volume remain governed by that provider and must be managed through the app or provider account.

Third parties

Depending on the features you choose, data may be processed by your ComfyUI host, RunPod, Tailscale, or Apple system services. Review their policies before use. The app includes no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs.

Children and generated content

The app does not knowingly collect data from children. Generated output depends on the prompts, models, and host selected by the user. Parents and guardians should supervise access to user-controlled generative models as appropriate.
