Privacy Policy

Welcome to Kyther.AI. Your privacy matters to us, and we want to be straightforward about how we handle your information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have.

Kyther.AI is a platform where you can create and chat with AI companions. To provide this service, we need to collect and process certain information about you and your interactions. We are currently in alpha, and our practices may evolve as the platform grows — but our commitment to respecting your privacy will not change.

By using Kyther.AI, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use the service.

2.1. Information You Provide

When you create an account, we collect your email address and a password. Your password is securely hashed — we never store it in plain text and cannot read it.

When you use the platform, we also collect the content you create, including:

• AI characters you create (names, descriptions, personality settings)
• Chat messages you exchange with AI companions
• Profile information and preferences you choose to set

2.2. Information We Collect Automatically

When you use Kyther.AI, we automatically collect certain technical information, including:

• Device type and operating system
• Browser type and version
• General usage patterns (pages visited, features used, session duration)
• Error and crash reports to help us fix bugs

We do not collect precise geolocation data. We do not use third-party analytics or advertising trackers.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Providing the service: Processing your messages with AI companions, storing your characters, and maintaining your account.
• Improving the platform: Understanding how features are used so we can make them better. We may analyze aggregated, anonymized usage patterns — never individual conversations for marketing purposes.
• Security: Detecting and preventing abuse, fraud, and unauthorized access to the platform.
• Communication: Sending you essential service-related messages such as account verification, security alerts, and important updates about changes to the platform or these policies.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your chat content to train AI models. We do not serve targeted advertising.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers: We work with third-party providers for hosting, AI processing, and infrastructure. These providers only access your data as needed to perform their services and are bound by their own privacy obligations.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, or ensure the safety of our users.
• Business transfers: If Kyther.AI is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We would notify you before your data becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Your chat messages are sent to AI processing services to generate responses. These messages are processed in real time and are not retained by the AI provider beyond what is needed to generate a response.

We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

• Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms — we cannot see or recover your password
• All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS
• Access to user data is restricted to essential services and personnel only
• We regularly review our security practices and update them as needed

That said, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If we become aware of a security breach that affects your data, we will notify you as required by applicable law.

You have the following rights regarding your personal information:

• Access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction: You can update or correct inaccurate information through your account settings or by contacting us.
• Deletion: You can request that we delete your account and associated data. Some data may be retained as required by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as fraud prevention).
• Data export: You can request a copy of your data in a portable format.

To exercise any of these rights, you can use the options available in your account settings or contact us at support@kyther.ai. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.

We use cookies and similar technologies sparingly, and only for essential purposes:

• Authentication cookies: To keep you logged in and maintain your session.
• Preference cookies: To remember your settings, such as your chosen theme and language preferences.

We do not use advertising cookies, social media tracking pixels, or third-party analytics trackers.

We use an error tracking service to detect and fix bugs. This service may collect anonymized session replay data to help us understand and reproduce issues. This data is used solely for debugging purposes and does not contain personally identifiable information in its reports.

Kyther.AI is intended for users who are 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.

If we discover that we have collected personal information from a minor, we will take steps to delete that information and terminate the associated account as quickly as possible. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@kyther.ai so we can take appropriate action.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes:

• We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
• For significant changes that affect how we handle your data, we will notify you by email or through a prominent notice on the platform before the changes take effect.
• Minor wording changes or clarifications may be made without advance notice.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of Kyther.AI after any changes indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at:
