When you use MMA. chat without an account

chat returns are processed to generate a response. We also save them and use them to develop and improve MMA. chat, including training our own models, unless you turn that off in settings. See section 4. - A guest identifier: a random identifier stored in essential browser storage.

We do not intentionally store raw IP addresses in our application database. Hosting, security, and network providers may process IP addresses in their own operational and security logs. - Feedback: ratings such as thumbs up or thumbs down, suggestions and ideas you send us, any comment you write, and — when you choose to send it — the conversation your feedback is about.
Where we hold no copy of that conversation, it is sent from your browser at the moment you submit, and only then.
