+## Privacy
+
+Core-Monitor is built with a simple position: privacy is a fundamental human right.
+
+This project is open source so the code can be inspected directly. That matters for a system utility that reads hardware state, surfaces sensor data, and can optionally talk to a privileged helper for fan control.
+
+Privacy expectations for the project:
+
+- No telemetry
+- No analytics
+- No ad tech
+- No account requirement
+- No subscription gate for the core utility
+
+Core-Monitor is designed to run locally on your Mac and focus on monitoring, menu bar stats, Touch Bar tools, benchmarking, and fan control without collecting usage data about you.
