Your questions run on volunteers' computers

Eranos has no data centre. When you ask something, your message and the conversation so far are sent to a computer that a volunteer has lent, and the answer is written there.

That means the owner of that computer could, with effort, see what you sent. Treat Eranos like a public study room: fine for homework, wrong for secrets.

Never paste passwords, API keys, access tokens, or anyone's personal details.

What Eranos keeps

Your email address, so you can sign in.

For each request: when it happened, which model answered, how many tokens it used, how long it took, and which donor computer answered. This is how credits are counted and how the network is kept healthy.

What Eranos does not keep

The text of your chats and the answers. They pass through the server while the answer is being written and are not saved or logged.

Your chat history is stored in your own browser, on this device only. Clearing your browser data deletes it.

Quiet Hours jobs

Files you submit are stored encrypted until the job is done, and each file is sent to a donor computer to be read.

Your files and the results are deleted 14 days after the job is delivered, or straight away if you cancel it.

Nothing in your code is ever run, on donor computers or anywhere else.

If you donate your computer

The donor app reports your computer's type, memory, graphics card and speed, so that requests can be sent to machines that can handle them.

It runs only approved AI models, never code sent by anyone, and it accepts no incoming connections.
