What FLARA keeps, and what it doesn’t.

Who is responsible

FLARA is run by Praveen Kumar Chaurasiya, an individual developer in India, and is the data fiduciary for the information described here under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Questions, requests and complaints go to flara3916@gmail.com, which is also the grievance contact. We aim to reply within 7 days.

Right Now takes no account, no email and no name. Your messages are sent to the AI model to write a reply and are not written to our database at all. Close the tab and there is nothing of the conversation on our side to find, hand over or lose.

What we do record, none of which identifies you:

• A random identifier your browser generates for itself, with the first and last time it was seen and how many times it came back. It is not linked to a name, an email or an account unless you later choose to sign up and bring the conversation with you.
• Whether a prompt inviting you to create an account was shown, and whether it was clicked.

Memory is the point of Always, so this part stores a great deal. Specifically:

• Your email address, and a display name if you give one.
• A one-way bcrypt hash of your password. The password itself is never stored and cannot be recovered by us or by anyone who obtains the database.
• Every message in your conversations, yours and FLARA’s, in full.
• What FLARA remembers about you — facts, preferences, events, the people you mention, how you asked to be addressed, and a short description of how you write (your language mix, message length and tone). You can see every one of these on the Memories page.
• Rolling summaries of older parts of the conversation, written by the model so that long histories stay affordable to carry forward.
• Your relationship settings — mode, tone preference and boundaries.
• Whether you used the upgrade flow. No card, UPI or payment details are collected anywhere in FLARA, because no real payment is taken yet.

Safety records

When FLARA detects that a conversation may involve a crisis, it records that this happened and on which surface — Right Now or Always — with the time. No part of the conversation is recorded, and the record is not linked to your account. It exists so we can tell whether the safety response is working at all, and it cannot be traced back to a person.

Who else sees it

We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising. FLARA cannot work without a small number of service providers, and these are all of them:

• Groq generates every reply. The content of your message, the relevant part of what FLARA remembers about you, and your summary are sent to Groq each time you send a message. This applies to Right Now as well, even though we store nothing.
• Resend sends verification and password-reset emails, and receives your email address to do so.
• Neon hosts the database where everything above is stored.
• Render hosts the application itself.

What deleting a memory actually does

This is the part most services would leave vague, so here it is exactly.

When you delete an item on the Memories page, it immediately stops being part of what FLARA knows about you and stops appearing in your memory list. What happens to the stored text then depends on one question: can anything still bring that fact back?

Two things could. It may sit in a written summary of an earlier conversation, and summaries are prose — a single fact cannot be cut out of them cleanly. It may also sit in the recent messages that are replayed to the model each time you write. So:

• If neither still refers to it, the item is erased from the database straight away. Most deletions are this case, and nothing is kept.
• If one of them does, the text is kept and used to build an explicit instruction telling the model never to mention it. That instruction, including the text, is sent to Groq with each message — which is the price of making the deletion stick against a summary that cannot be edited.
• It is then erased as soon as that stops being true. Every time a new summary is written, anything no longer referred to anywhere is removed for good.

How long it is kept

For as long as your account exists. There is no automatic expiry: the whole purpose of Always is that it does not forget, and a quiet deletion after some number of months would break the one promise the product makes. When you delete your account, it goes immediately and is not archived.

Right Now stores no conversation, so there is nothing to retain. The anonymous visit counts described above are kept so we can see whether people come back.

What you can do

• See everything. Settings → Your data → Download my data gives you a file containing your account details, every memory including deleted ones, your summaries and your full conversation history.
• Correct it. Memories can be deleted individually, and your display name, mode, tone and boundaries can be changed at any time in Settings.
• Erase it. Settings → Your data → Delete my account removes your account, memories, summaries, conversations and settings permanently. It cannot be undone.
• Complain. Write to flara3916@gmail.com. If we do not resolve it to your satisfaction, the DPDP Act allows you to escalate to the Data Protection Board of India.

Children

FLARA is for people aged 18 and over, and we do not knowingly create accounts for anyone younger. If you believe a child has made an account, write to us and we will delete it.

Security, honestly

Passwords are bcrypt-hashed, sessions use signed tokens that expire, traffic is encrypted in transit, and changing your password ends every other session on your account. What we cannot honestly claim is that any system is immune. FLARA is built and maintained by one person. If something goes wrong that affects you, we will tell you rather than quietly hope you do not notice.

If this page changes

The date at the top is the only one that counts. If a change meaningfully affects what is collected or who it reaches, we will say so in the product rather than relying on you to re-read this page.
