Privacy Policy
Welcome to Zealot!
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use Zealot. Zealot is available in both open source and paid versions. The data we collect depends on which version you use.
1. Information We Collectâ
Open Source Versionâ
- Anonymous Error Reporting: Zealot uses Sentry for anonymous error reporting, which may include personally identifiable information (PII) depending on the error context. You can disable Sentry reporting in your configuration. For details, please refer to the Sentry documentation.
- Website Analytics: The Zealot documentation and demo sites use Microsoft Clarity for website analytics. Data collected is subject to Microsoft Clarity's privacy policy. No analytics are collected from your self-hosted Zealot instance.
Paid Version (Self-Hosted)â
The paid version of Zealot is a self-hosted service. By default, we do not collect analytics or usage data from your instance. The only data that may be collected is:
- Anonymous Error Reporting: Zealot uses Sentry for anonymous error reporting, which may include personally identifiable information (PII) depending on the error context. You can disable Sentry reporting in your configuration. For details, please refer to the Sentry documentation.
- Personal Information for Billing/Support: If you purchase a paid license, we may collect necessary personal information (such as your name, email address, and billing details) solely for billing and customer support purposes. This information is not linked to your self-hosted Zealot usage or content.
Analytics Integrations (Self-Hosted)â
Zealot provides optional integrations for Umami and Google Analytics. If you enable these analytics services, data will only be sent to the analytics provider you configure (your own Umami instance or your Google Analytics account). Zealot itself does not collect or transmit analytics data to any third party by default. Please refer to the respective analytics provider's privacy policy for details on their data collection and usage.
2. How We Use Your Informationâ

- Website analytics for documentation and demo sites are used to improve content and user experience.
Paid Version (Self-Hosted)â
