Privacy
Short version: no accounts, no advertising, no selling anything to anyone. We use Google Analytics to see which pages and questions are popular, and otherwise keep the minimum needed to run the service.
What we store
- Questions you ask, along with the channel and a timestamp. These are reviewed to improve retrieval and to see what people want that we can't yet answer.
- Your IP address, alongside those questions and any form submissions, for rate limiting and abuse prevention.
- Anything you type into a form — channel requests and contact messages, including an email address if you choose to give one.
- Standard web server logs (IP, page, time, user agent), kept short-term.
- Google Analytics — aggregate usage: which pages are visited, from roughly where, on what kind of device. It sets cookies and shares that usage data with Google. It is not tied to your name, we don't use it for advertising, and the questions you ask are not sent to it.
What we don't do
- No advertising trackers, no ad networks, no profiling for ads.
- No accounts and no sign-in for readers. The only cookie beyond analytics is an admin session cookie, set only if you sign in to the operator panel.
- No selling, renting or sharing of personal data.
Third parties
Questions and the relevant transcript excerpts are sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate answers, under their API terms. Aggregate usage data goes to Google Analytics. The site is served from our own server, behind Cloudflare. Transcripts are fetched from YouTube's public caption tracks. Some of these providers are based in, or store data in, countries outside Australia — primarily the United States.
Your data
Email us via the contact form to have your submissions or contact details deleted. Because questions aren't tied to an account, please include enough detail to identify them.
This is a small independent project, not a company with a legal department. If something here matters to you and isn't clear, ask and we'll answer plainly.
