Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
Characters4AI is committed to your privacy. This policy explains what data is collected when you use any Characters4AI site.
1. What We Collect
Conversation data: Your conversations with Characters4AI characters are sent to Anthropic's API for processing. We do not store your conversation history on our servers. Conversations are held in your browser's local storage and are deleted when you clear your browser data.
Payment data: Payments are processed entirely by Stripe. Characters4AI does not receive or store your payment card details. Stripe's privacy policy applies to all payment processing: stripe.com/privacy.
Analytics: We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool that uses no cookies and collects no personal data. We see aggregate traffic data only — page views, referrers, and country-level location. No individual users are tracked. Plausible is GDPR compliant by design.
Suggestion form: If you submit a character suggestion, we collect the content of your submission (character concept, culture, and reason) and the time of submission. We do not collect your name or email address unless you choose to include it in your submission. This data is used only to evaluate character suggestions.
2. Cookies
Characters4AI sites use no tracking cookies. We use browser localStorage to store your prompt count and session token. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers except as part of session validation.
3. Third Party Services
Anthropic API: processes conversation content (anthropic.com/privacy).
Stripe: processes payments (stripe.com/privacy).
Plausible Analytics: privacy-friendly analytics (plausible.io/privacy).
Vercel: hosting and infrastructure (vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy).
4. Your Rights
You have the right to know what data we hold about you. Given the minimal data collection described above, the most complete way to remove your data is to clear your browser's local storage for Characters4AI sites. For any privacy enquiries contact hello@characters4ai.com.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update.
