R.G. StudiosPrivacy
Your PC, your data
Last updated 12 October 2026
Prestige runs its AI models on your own computer. Your chats, pictures, videos, songs, memory and files stay on your PC. R.G. Studios has no accounts, no servers that receive your data, no analytics and no tracking.
This program will not transfer any information to other networked systems unless specifically requested by the user or the person installing or operating it.
When Prestige goes online
These are the only times Prestige connects to the internet, and what it sends.
| When | Where to | What is sent |
|---|---|---|
| Checking for updates, shortly after start and every 6 hours while open, and when you click Check for updates. Untick Check for updates on its own in About (click the Prestige logo) and it only checks when you click the button | GitHub (github.com/Mr5elfDe5truct/prestige) | A request for the latest version number. Nothing about you or your PC beyond what any web request carries (your IP address). |
| Setup, Packs and the Model catalog, when you install them | Windows Package Manager (winget), GitHub, Hugging Face, Ollama and the projects that publish the engines | Download requests for the tools and models you picked. |
| Web search, page fetching, Deep Research and the Reddit / Hugging Face / GitHub scout, when you or a model you've allowed uses them | The search engine and the sites being read | The search words and page addresses. |
| Canvas pages (games, charts, 3D) that use a code library | The library's public download site (cdn.jsdelivr.net or cdnjs.cloudflare.com) | A download request for the library, such as Chart.js or three.js. |
| Missions you schedule that use web tools | As above | As above, on the schedule you set. |
| Tools you add from Get more tools (Home Assistant, GitHub, Spotify, Gmail, Google Calendar, Notion and others) | That service | What the tool needs to do what you asked, using the key or sign-in you gave it. Each service's own privacy policy applies. |
What stays on your network
Phone access and the Android app are off until you switch them on. They talk to Prestige on your PC over your home network, protected by a pairing code, and don't go through any R.G. Studios server. The AI engines (Ollama, llama.cpp, ComfyUI, the voice server and Open WebUI) only listen on your own PC.
Where your data lives
Settings and keys you enter: %APPDATA%\com.rgstudios.prestige. Models, renders and the AI engines: your Workstation folder (by default %USERPROFILE%\RG Studios\Workstation). Uninstalling Prestige leaves the Workstation folder in place; delete it to remove everything. Tick Delete the application data while uninstalling to remove your settings and keys too.
This website
rgstudios.dev is a static site with no cookies, analytics or trackers. It loads fonts from Google Fonts, and the download button asks GitHub for the latest release, so Google and GitHub see your IP address when you visit. The site is served through Cloudflare.
Prestige IDE
Prestige IDE follows the same rules. It checks GitHub (github.com/Mr5elfDe5truct/prestige-ide) for a new version shortly after it opens and when you ask. Web search and page fetches happen only when the agent uses those tools, and fetching from a new site asks you first. Its models and tools run on your PC through Prestige. Sessions and settings are in %APPDATA%\com.rgstudios.prestige-ide.
