Terms and privacy

Last updated 19 September 2026.

Facade is an open source tool for working together, run by Haij. This is the agreement, short and in plain words.

What Facade is

One shared place for a small team: projects with pages written on together, and channels for the conversation.

Accounts and access

You get in by applying or being invited. We store your name, your email and your workspace's name, and use them to sign you in and to write to you about the service. Passwords are stored hashed, and you can add a passkey and two-factor. We sell nothing, and we do not send marketing you did not ask for.

Your data

Everything you write in Facade belongs to you and your workspace. It can be downloaded as a spreadsheet and JSON in one click and deleted again. We do not look at it unless you ask us for help, and we never pass it on.

AI

If a language model is set up and you ask for a suggestion, the page's text or the channel's latest messages are sent to the model. The model is Mistral in the EU or one on the installation's own server, and nothing is sent until you ask.

Invitations

An invitation link is for one address and expires after two days. You send it; we send no mail.

Leaving

You can delete your workspace immediately, without writing to anyone and without waiting. The export is one click away and readable without Facade. We keep no copy afterwards beyond the nightly encrypted backups, which roll off after 30 days — on the server and in the EU storage they are copied to.

Operation and guarantees

Facade is new, and there is no uptime guarantee. We look after your data with encrypted backups every night, but you should download an export now and then. The service is provided as is, without guarantees beyond what mandatory law requires.

Licence

The code is AGPL-3.0. You may use it, change it and run it yourself; if you change it and offer it to others over a network, your changes must be available too. What you write in the tool is not covered by the licence — that is yours.

Contact

Write to martin@vintherconsulting.dk. If you have found a security problem, SECURITY.md in the repository says how to report it; use that rather than an ordinary email.
