Your Privacy is
Sacred.
SoulWhisp is built from the ground up to protect your privacy. No human ever sees your conversations. This document explains clearly how we protect what you share.
01.Our Commitment to Privacy
At SoulWhisp, privacy isn't just a legal requirement -- it's the foundation of everything we do.
When you're practising saying something you've never said out loud, the last thing you should worry about is who might see your words. That's why SoulWhisp is designed from the ground up to protect your privacy.
The most important thing to know: No human ever sees your conversations. Period.

04.Training Data & AI Improvement
Your conversations are NEVER used to train our AI.
SoulWhisp's AI is built on listening principles learned from years of volunteer crisis work -- not on your personal conversations.
When you talk to SoulWhisp, your words are processed in real-time to generate responses, then immediately deleted when you close the chat. They are: - Never stored anywhere - Never used for training or improvement - Never analysed or reviewed - Never seen by humans
Why we don't use your conversations: People practising saying the hardest things they've ever said need absolute certainty that their words stay private. We will never compromise that trust -- even for "improvement" or "research."
Will this ever change? If we ever want to offer an optional feature where users can choose to help improve SoulWhisp by sharing anonymized data, we will: - Update this policy with clear, detailed information - Make it completely opt-in (never automatic or default) - Give you full control to opt in or out at any time - Ensure true anonymization with no way to identify you - Notify all users prominently before launching But right now, and for the foreseeable future: your words are yours alone.
05.What We DON'T Do
- -Store your conversations
- -Create user profiles
- -Track you across sessions

21.Final Note
Privacy is not just a policy for us -- it's our core principle.
SoulWhisp exists to give people a safe space to practise saying the things they can't say anywhere else. That requires absolute trust that what you say stays private.
We've built SoulWhisp to respect that trust: - No storage - No tracking - No humans seeing your words - No compromises
The practice conversation only works if you feel completely safe. We're committed to making sure you always do.
If you ever have concerns about privacy, please reach out. We're here to help.
