1. Terms of Service

What UPtrim Is

UPtrim ("Context Proxy") is a local reverse-proxy application that sits between your chat interface (Open WebUI, SillyTavern, etc.) and your locally-hosted large language model (llama.cpp, Ollama, etc.). It enriches conversations with persistent memory, context compression, NLP-based fact extraction, and intelligent context injection.

UPtrim runs entirely on your hardware. No data is sent to external servers unless you explicitly configure an external LLM endpoint or enable optional features like web search.

Acceptance

By downloading, installing, or using UPtrim you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the software.

License

UPtrim is provided as-is for personal and non-commercial use. You may:

• Run UPtrim on your own hardware for personal use
• Modify your local copy for personal use
• Share UPtrim with others, provided these terms accompany the distribution

You may not:

• Sell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute UPtrim or derivative works
• Remove or alter authorship, credits, or these Terms of Service
• Use UPtrim to provide a hosted service to third parties without written permission

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use UPtrim to:

• Generate, store, or distribute illegal content
• Harass, threaten, or harm others
• Circumvent security measures of third-party systems
• Violate the terms of service of any connected LLM provider
• Process data you do not have the right to process

Third-Party Dependencies

UPtrim incorporates open-source libraries including FastAPI, uvicorn, spaCy, PyTorch, sentence-transformers, FAISS, Textual, and httpx. Each is subject to its own license terms.

Modifications to Terms

These terms may be updated in future releases. Continued use of UPtrim after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Material changes will be noted in release changelogs.

2. Privacy Policy

Local Storage

All user data — memories, conversation context, extracted facts, identity profiles — is stored in a local SQLite database on your machine. UPtrim does not transmit this data externally.

LLM Communication

UPtrim forwards enriched prompts to the LLM endpoint you configure. If that endpoint is local (localhost, LAN), your data stays on your network. If you point UPtrim at a cloud LLM API, standard data-handling policies of that API provider apply.

Optional Web Features

Features like web search make outbound HTTP requests when enabled. These can be disabled in settings. No personally identifiable information is sent — only search queries derived from your conversation.

No Telemetry

UPtrim does not collect analytics, telemetry, crash reports, or usage statistics. There are no phone-home mechanisms.

User Accounts & Identity

UPtrim resolves user identity from headers provided by your chat frontend (e.g., Open WebUI user headers). Identity data is stored locally for per-user memory separation. There is no account creation, email collection, or external authentication.

Passwords or API keys stored in UPtrim’s config are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM.

3. Security Policy

Local Network Only

UPtrim is designed for use on trusted local networks. It binds to 0.0.0.0 by default for LAN access. Do not expose UPtrim directly to the public internet without additional security measures (reverse proxy with TLS, authentication, firewall rules).

API Key Protection

API keys for external LLM providers are encrypted in the configuration file using AES-256-GCM. Treat your config.json as sensitive.

Prompt Injection Awareness

UPtrim injects memory context into LLM prompts. While safeguards exist (sandbox scoring, quarantine), no system is immune to adversarial prompt injection. Use caution when processing untrusted input.

Reporting Vulnerabilities

If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it via the project’s GitHub repository or contact the maintainer directly. Do not disclose vulnerabilities publicly before a fix is available.

4. Refund Policy

Monthly Subscriptions

UPtrim paid tiers (Standard, Pro, Premium) are billed monthly. You may cancel anytime from your dashboard — your tier access continues through the end of the current billing cycle, after which the proxy falls back to free developer-key features. No prorated refunds on a canceled cycle.

First-Month Guarantee

If you are unhappy with your first paid month on any tier, request a refund within 14 days of the initial charge, no questions asked. Contact us via the contact page or email with your order details.

Free Developer Key

The free developer key on GitHub has no payment, no expiration, and no refund needed. It will continue to work even if you cancel a paid subscription.

How to Request

Email or submit a request through the support page with your order ID. Refunds are processed within 5–10 business days to the original payment method.

5. Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES, OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH UPTRIM OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.

This includes but is not limited to: data loss, corrupted memories, incorrect LLM responses, security breaches, or any damages arising from use on public networks.
