Privacy Policy

Last updated 3 September 2026.

This site deals with your work, your industry and your standing in it. People often arrive here while still in the role, weighing something they have not told anyone. That makes it more important, not less, to be exact about what happens to what you type.

2. Our commitment

We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising or build an advertising profile on you. We do not currently use analytics cookies. We do not operate a membership, account, or payment service on this site, and we do not ask you to create an account to use it.

We do not profile you commercially based on anything you disclose. Nothing you tell the chat about your job, your money, your family, your health or your circumstances is used to decide what to offer you, or when.

3. What we process, why, and the lawful basis

Local browser data: Chat threads, your boundary acknowledgement, and any private notes you type are stored in your browser's local storage on your own device, under keys beginning rc_. This data is not stored in an application database operated by us. Lawful basis: legitimate interests in providing a functioning, consistent service, and where applicable performance of the service you request.

Chat messages sent to the AI service: When you send a message, its content and the minimum conversation context needed to generate a reply are sent to OpenAI through its API. This is necessary to provide the chat response you request. Lawful basis: performance of the service you request.

Technical and security data: Cloudflare processes technical information such as IP address, request timestamp, device/browser information, and security events to host, protect, and operate the site. Lawful basis: legitimate interests in security, fraud prevention, and reliable operation.

Analytics: We do not currently use analytics cookies. If this changes, we will update this Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy before enabling them.

4. AI processing detail

When you use the chat, the message you enter and the conversation context needed to generate a reply are sent to OpenAI through its API. We do not operate a database of your chat history on our own servers. OpenAI states that API business data is not used to train its models by default. OpenAI may retain API inputs and outputs for a limited period, typically up to 30 days, for abuse monitoring and service protection, unless a longer retention period is required by law. See OpenAI's Enterprise Privacy information.

Please do not enter identifying or sensitive detail in the chat. That includes your employer's name, colleagues' or family members' names, your address, financial account details, or medical information. The guide does not need them to be useful, and this site cannot promise you they are private once sent to a third-party AI provider. If you are documenting something for yourself, write it down somewhere you control rather than in the chat.

5. Processors

Cloudflare (hosting, security)
OpenAI (AI response generation)

6. International transfers

Our service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where required, transfers are made using an applicable lawful transfer mechanism provided by the relevant service provider, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or another recognised safeguard. You can contact us using the details above for further information about the safeguards that apply.

7. Retention

Cloudflare technical logs: retained according to the account configuration and Cloudflare's service settings, and no longer than necessary for security, troubleshooting, and legal obligations.

OpenAI API data: OpenAI may retain API inputs and outputs for a limited period, typically up to 30 days, for abuse monitoring and service protection, subject to its own policies and legal obligations.

Chat history: stored locally in your browser until you clear it.
Boundary acknowledgement: stored locally until you clear it.
Private notes: stored locally until you clear them.

8. Automated decision-making

The chat uses an AI system to generate responses. It does not make decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects about you. It is not a diagnostic, clinical, employment, recruitment, credit, insurance, benefits, or eligibility decision-making service, and it does not assess, score, or rank you for any purpose.

9. Your rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, port, and object to processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details above.

You may also lodge a complaint with the Spanish supervisory authority: AEPD.

10. Managing and deleting local data

You can remove chat threads, the boundary acknowledgement, and your notes by clearing browser storage for this domain. Because we do not maintain an application database of chat history, we cannot retrieve or delete chat history that exists only in your browser.

A caution about shared devices. Local browser storage is not the same as guaranteed privacy. Anyone with access to this browser profile can read your notes and your conversation list. If you are documenting a difficult situation at home or at work, consider whether the device you are using is genuinely your own, and use your browser's private or incognito mode if it is not.

11. Membership

Membership is coming soon. It will be one fair annual membership, designed to grow with the network. No price, launch date, or feature set has been announced. This site does not currently take payment, hold payment details, or collect member data. If that changes, this policy will be updated before it does.

12. Age restriction

This site is for adults only. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 18.
