Thank you for choosing lesseffort.io. Our commitment to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information is of utmost importance to us. This privacy policy outlines how we handle and protect your data as a user of our website and services, whether you are a free user or a paid user.

Data Handling Section

This section governs the handling of data in relation to the features provided by our web application, including the registration and login feature, saved conversation and message storage, and prompt storage.

OpenAPI & Chat:

All of your data, including API keys, chat history, and chat messages, are stored locally on your browser using Local Storage. This means that your data is not sent to our servers.

When you send a message on lesseffort.io, the website sends a request to OpenAI API endpoints using the API key you provided. These requests are sent directly from your browser to OpenAI's servers using a secured transport protocol (HTTPS). No middle server is involved, and no one else can see the requests, responses, or their content.

Registration and Login Feature:

To access the full functionality of our web application, registration and login are required. This includes providing accurate and up-to-date personal information, as well as creating a unique username and password.

The personal information provided during registration will be securely stored in our database for account management, authentication, and providing personalized services.

We do not sell, share, or disclose your registration information to any third parties, except as required by law or with your explicit consent.

It is your responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials and not share them with others.

Saved Conversation and Message Storage:

Our web application allows you to save conversations and messages for easy access and retrieval.

Conversations and messages that are not specifically saved by you will be stored locally on your device's localStorage and will not be transmitted to our servers.

Saved conversations and messages will be securely stored in our database to ensure availability across devices and to provide a seamless user experience.

We will not access, monitor, or disclose your saved conversations and messages, unless required for technical support or customer service purposes, or as required by law.

Prompt Storage:

If you choose to submit a prompt to our platform, it will be securely stored in our database.

Public Prompts: Submitted public prompts may be used for statistical analysis, such as tracking the usage of public prompts to gather data on how many users find them useful or utilize them. These public prompts will be displayed publicly for other users to view and utilize.

Private Prompts: Private prompts will be kept confidential and will only be visible and accessible to you. They will not be shared or displayed publicly.

Data Retention:

We retain your data related to registration, saved conversations, messages, and prompt submissions for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this document or as required by law.
