What AI companion apps know about you

You tell an AI companion things you've never told anyone. Here's what many apps keep, and the questions to ask before you open up.

People tell AI companions everything: fantasies, fears, secrets, loneliness. That makes these apps some of the most sensitive services you'll ever use. It's worth knowing what they keep.

What many apps collect

Your identity: email, phone number, or a Google or Apple login that ties the account to your real profile.
Your payments: card details and billing name, or app store records.
Your chats: usually stored in full, sometimes used to train models.
Your device and network: IP address, location, device IDs.
Your behavior: analytics and ad trackers that follow you across the web.

Questions to ask any AI app

1. Does it need my email or phone? Why?

2. Are my chats encrypted where they're stored?

3. Are my chats used to train AI models?

4. Which AI provider sees my messages, and what do they keep?

5. Does the site load third-party trackers?

6. If I delete my account, is everything really gone?

7. Can I pay without a card?

How LateLune answers

No email or phone. Chats encrypted at rest with a key per account, destroyed when you delete it. No trackers. No IP logs. Pay with Monero or Bitcoin. The AI provider gets your words without your account number or payment details. And we say plainly that it isn't end-to-end encrypted, because the AI has to read your messages.

FAQ

Do AI chat apps read my messages?

The AI has to process them to reply. Whether people at the company can read them depends on the app. Check its privacy policy.

Which AI companion app is most private?
