Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026. OpenChatGPT is designed to collect as little as possible: no account, no profile, no chat database.

1. What we collect

Chat messages. When you send a message, it is transmitted to our server and forwarded to a third-party AI model provider through an API so a reply can be generated. The provider processes the message to produce the response. We do not store your messages in a database on our server, and we do not build profiles from them.

No daily message limit. There is no daily limit on messages, so the server keeps no per-visitor message-count records at all. The only practical limit is the cost of the AI service itself.

Technical logs. Like most web hosts, our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested, timestamps) for security and troubleshooting. These logs are not used for advertising profiles.

2. What stays in your browser

Your chat history is stored in your browser's localStorage, on your own device. They are never uploaded to us. You can delete them at any time with the "Clear all chats" button in the sidebar, or by clearing your browser's site data. If you use a different device or browser, your old chats will not be there.

3. What we do not collect

• No account, name, email address, or password is required to chat.
• We do not ask for your location, contacts, or files.
• We do not sell personal data to anyone.

4. Third-party services

AI model provider. Messages you send are processed by a third-party AI provider (via an API gateway). That provider's own privacy policy governs how it handles API requests. Do not send passwords, national ID numbers, bank details, medical records, or other sensitive personal information in the chat.

Advertising. This site may show ads through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at google.com/settings/ads. See Google's advertising privacy information at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Content delivery. The chat page loads a markdown-rendering library (marked.js) from a public CDN (jsDelivr). That CDN may see your IP address and browser information when the file is fetched, as with any website resource.

5. Cookies

This site does not set its own tracking cookies. The advertising provider described above may set cookies for ad delivery and measurement. Your browser settings can block or delete cookies at any time; the chat will still work. We also show a small cookie-consent banner; your choice (Accept or Dismiss) is saved only in your own browser (localStorage) so we do not ask you again, and you can change it any time from the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. See the cookie policy for full detail.

6. Children

OpenChatGPT is intended for users aged 13 and over (or the age of digital consent in your country, if higher). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe a child under 13 has sent personal information through the chat, contact us through the contact page and we will help. Because chats are stored only in the child's own browser, the most reliable step is to delete the chats on that device using the "Clear all chats" button, or by clearing the browser's site data. The site does not ask for a child's name, age, school, or location, and it has no way of knowing a visitor's age — so please supervise younger users and remind them never to type personal information into any chat, including this one.

7. Data retention

We keep as little as possible, for as short as possible. Your messages are not stored in a database on our server at all — they are forwarded to the AI provider to generate a reply and then forgotten. Your chat history is stored only in your own browser, and it stays there until you delete it; we cannot delete it for you, because we have no copy. Standard server logs kept by our hosting provider are held for a limited period for security and troubleshooting, and are then deleted or anonymised. If you email us, we keep that email only as long as needed to answer you; you can ask us to delete it at any time through the contact page.

8. Your rights

Because the site collects almost nothing about you, there is very little to ask for — but your rights still apply. You can delete your chat history at any time with "Clear all chats" in the sidebar, or by clearing your browser's site data; that removes every copy, because the history exists only on your device. You can stop using the site at any time to stop any further processing of your messages. You can ask us to delete any email you sent us. You can opt out of personalised advertising at google.com/settings/ads. And you can re-open the cookie banner at any time from the "Cookie settings" link in the footer to change your consent choice. If you have a question about your data, contact us through the contact page and we will answer it.

9. Your choices

Use "Clear all chats" to delete local history. Stop using the site to stop further processing. If you emailed us (see the contact page), you can ask us to delete that email correspondence.

10. Changes

If this policy changes in a material way, the "Last updated" date at the top will change and the new version will be posted here. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
