Privacy Notice

This notice covers the site agent on /ai only. The rest of the site is served as static files: no cookies, no session, no record.

Overview

Every question you put to the agent and every answer it gives is recorded. That is not a side effect but the design: the records are linked to one another by a hash chain, which is what makes a conversation provably unaltered afterwards. The same design makes something else plain: the conversations you have with this agent sit in readable form on my side. I would rather you knew that before you asked anything.

Architecture

What Is Recorded

For every turn, the database receives:

• Your question and the agent's answer, verbatim
• ip_hash — a SHA-256 digest of your IP address
• The conversation's language, the model used, token counts, latency, timestamp
• Three hash values, for verifying the chain

Let Me Be Plain About ip_hash

Your IP address is not stored in the clear, but the digest that is stored is an unsalted SHA-256. The IPv4 address space is 2³², so that digest is reversible by anyone with access to the database. I do not present it as anonymisation.

To me the value is a marker: it lets me see whether a conversation was continued from more than one address. Rather than recording the data that directly identifies the device you came online from at that moment, I keep it in a form masked in good faith.

What Is Not Recorded

• No cookies, and no identifier written to your browser
• No analytics, tracking pixels or third-party advertising scripts
• No account, email address or name is asked for
• No per-visitor usage counter is kept

What Stays In Your Browser

Your conversation history is held in localStorage, on your device only. The new conversation button in the chat header clears it. The record on the server is not affected by that.

The session key is held in memory and is lost when you close the tab; it is never written anywhere.

How Conversations Continue

Continuity is decided by a hash of the conversation itself, not by your IP address and not by a cookie. That is why changing network does not interrupt a conversation.
