Face ID preference On the device Biometric data never leaves the system.

Where data goes

The app sends every request to the gateway URL you configured, and to no other server.

The gateway receives messages, attachments, approvals and job changes.

With the hermes_app plugin, it also receives a device identifier and search text.

The gateway is your own server. How it handles data depends on how you run it and on Hermes Agent, not on the developer.

The app loads no remote content, fonts or SDKs.

Permissions

  • Camera: scans pairing codes and takes photos for attachments. The app stores nothing from the camera.
  • Local network: reaches your gateway on your network.
  • Notifications: created on the device from gateway data. No developer server sends them.
  • Face ID: optional. Biometric data never leaves the system.

Children

Petasos is not directed at children under 13. It collects nothing.
