Privacy Policy
Socrates.exe is in beta. Things may break, philosophers may contradict themselves, but we take your privacy seriously.
We collect only what is necessary to make the product work — and try very hard to collect nothing else.
Chat Messages & Memory
Your conversations are not stored as permanent chat logs.
- Recent messages may be kept locally in your browser(on your device only) so a chat can resume after refresh or return.
- This local chat history is limited, device-specific, and can be cleared at any time via your browser storage.
- System notices (such as free-tier limits) and failed messages are never saved.
In addition, Socrates.exe uses a lightweight concept called User Memory.
This is not chat history. Instead, each philosopher may retain a short, evolving summary about you — such as preferred style, recurring topics, or long-running projects — to avoid repetitive conversations.
- Memory is persona-specific (Socrates does not share with Kant).
- It is minimal (a few sentences at most).
- It evolves gradually instead of being rewritten every message.
- It is linked only to your nickname, not to an account or email.
In short: the chat remembers the conversation.
The philosopher remembers the person.
The system forgets everything else.
Analytics & Consent
We use Google Analytics with Consent Mode.
- Analytics run only after you give explicit consent.
- Before consent, measurements are limited, anonymized, and cookie-free.
- No advertising cookies. No profiling. No behavioral ad tech.
Anonymous Chat Samples
During beta, we may collect anonymous chat samples to improve tone accuracy, safety, and system performance.
- No account data and no real-world identifiers.
- Used only for internal quality improvement.
- Never sold, shared, or used for marketing.
⚠️ Please do not enter personal, sensitive, or confidential information.
This applies to any chatbot — including Socrates.exe, ChatGPT, Gemini, or others.
No philosopher, assistant, or language model is a safe place for passwords, medical data, or bank details.
Data We Collect (Minimally)
- Aggregate page analytics.
- Optional email if you subscribe to updates.
- Basic usage events (e.g. persona selection, message counts).
Data We Avoid Entirely
- No selling your data.
- No third-party advertising networks.
- No cross-site or cross-app tracking.
Retention
Anonymous chat samples may be stored temporarily during beta and deleted periodically.

We read every message carefully — even the critical ones.
After all, uncomfortable questions are kind of our thing.
