AI privacy glossary — key terms

Anonymous AI chat An anonymous AI chat lets you talk to an AI without revealing or creating an identity — no account, no email, no profile. Combined with no logs and no tracking, your questions can't be tied back to you.

Browser fingerprinting Browser fingerprinting is a tracking technique that identifies and follows you using your device and browser characteristics — screen size, fonts, timezone, hardware, and more — combined into a near-unique 'fingerprint'. It works without cookies and is hard to clear.

No-log AI A no-log AI is a chat service that does not record your conversations — prompts and replies aren't written to server logs, stored in a database, or linked to your identity. There is no history to retain, hand over, or train on.

Stateless AI Stateless AI is an AI chat that keeps no memory or state between sessions. Each conversation starts from scratch and is discarded when you close it — the model retains nothing about you, your past chats, or your identity.

Uncensored AI Uncensored AI is an assistant that answers without the heavy content filters and reflexive refusals of mainstream models. It gives real answers to difficult or sensitive questions instead of "I cannot help with that" — honesty, not explicit content.

Zero data retention Zero data retention (ZDR) means a service keeps none of your data once a request is handled — your prompt and the response are processed and then discarded, not saved. Nothing is retained for history, analytics or training.
