Privacy Policy

Effective October 15, 2026 · Papuga AI Assistant, operated by Daniel Papuga · support@danpapuga.com

This policy describes how our invitation-only, noncommercial AI SMS service processes information.

Information collected

We process enrolled phone numbers, SMS message content, assistant replies, notification preferences, access permissions, timestamps, and the records needed to demonstrate SMS consent or opt-out. We also collect minimal operational and security events for troubleshooting and abuse prevention.

How information is used

We use messages to provide requested AI conversations, information retrieval, reminders, authorized notifications, user support, security, and reliable message delivery. We do not use the service for marketing or sell personal information.

SMS consent data

We do not sell or share SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes. Consent is recorded when an invited user completes the JOIN and YES process. Text STOP to stop messages; text HELP or email support for assistance.

Messaging and AI service providers

Twilio processes SMS traffic to deliver messages. AI inference runs primarily on systems operated by Daniel Papuga. Certain specifically enabled features may send relevant content to external AI APIs or approved service providers, as needed to complete requests. Those providers have independent data-handling practices. Do not text sensitive credentials or financial secrets.

Retention

Our homelab retains SMS and AI conversation history for 30 days and operational/security logs for 30 days, with minimal stored message content in logs. Consent and opt-out records are retained during enrollment and for three years after enrollment ends. Twilio and any external processing providers may retain data according to their own policies and applicable requirements.

Deletion and access

To request deletion of your stored conversations or related personal data, contact support@danpapuga.com. We may verify your identity and retain limited records needed for consent evidence, security, and legal compliance under our stated retention policy.

Security and access

Only preapproved phone numbers may use the assistant. We use access controls and safeguards to limit abuse. SMS is not an end-to-end encrypted messaging channel; do not send passwords, authentication codes, payment card information, or other highly sensitive information.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when the service changes. Questions can be sent to support@danpapuga.com.
