The desk
None. Your manuscript is stored in SQLite on your computer and is never sent to Verne, so no vendor processes it on Verne’s behalf. The optional assistant in release 0.0.1b can send requests to an AI provider you choose with your own key and consent; that provider acts for you, under your own agreement with it, and Verne receives nothing through it. If a future build would send data to any other third party, the interface will say so first, and this page will be updated.

Each works under its own terms and data protection commitments. The privacy policy explains what is collected and why.
Only if you choose them
| Name | Purpose | Data | Location |

These are not Verne’s subprocessors in the usual sense. You use them under your own agreements with Microsoft and Google, and Verne receives nothing through them. The add-ins send the passages you file only to the Asten local API on your computer.
What Verne does not use
