What MindParallax keeps, and how to delete it

What we store

• Your email address, to sign you in with a one-time code. We do not use passwords.
• Your saved chats: your questions, the lens answers, and the Speaker’s notes. Council questions you ask without signing in are not saved on our server unless you sign in afterwards and keep them.
• Round Table Debate matches: the motion, the guests, the AI-performed lines, the one question you may type, and your votes. A match is saved while you play so it can be resumed. If you are signed in it is linked to your account; if you are not, it is saved with nothing that identifies you. Do not put names or private details in the question.
• Private lenses you create in Distiller: the finished lens and basic details (name, source type, size). We do not keep the source text or files you upload after the lens is made.
• Plan and usage: your plan, subscription status from Stripe, and how many runs you used this month.
• Two cookies: one keeps you signed in, one remembers that you used the free try. The Round Table game also keeps your unfinished match, your last report, and your settings in your browser’s storage; these stay on your device. We use no advertising trackers and no third-party analytics.
• Anonymous play events in Round Table Debate, at times when we have switched this on: for example that a match started, that the question step was reached, or that a report was exported. These events carry no account, no network address, no question text, and no line text, and no identifier is stored in your browser. Browsers that send Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control are not recorded.

Who else processes it

• An AI model provider receives each question and the earlier turns of that chat, to write the answers. In Round Table Debate it receives the lines of that match and the question you typed there. Do not include information you would not want processed this way.
• Stripe handles payments and keeps billing records as the law requires.
• An email service delivers your sign-in codes.

We do not sell your data and do not use your chats to train models.

How long we keep it

Chats and lenses are kept until you delete them or delete your account. Sign-in codes expire within minutes. Deleting your account removes your email, chats, lenses, Round Table matches linked to your account, and usage from our database at once; Stripe keeps its own payment records. Round Table matches played without signing in are not linked to a person, so we cannot find one on request; they are deleted 30 days after they were last played, and anonymous play events are deleted 30 days after they were recorded. From a deleted guest match we keep only one number: its final vote, added to that motion’s public count.

Your choices

• Download your data: Account → Download my data gives you a JSON file with everything above that is linked to your account, including your Round Table matches.
