1. Introduction
Cooked Ham Technologies operates an open-source AI assistant. This Privacy Policy explains our minimal data practices. We believe in privacy by design and collect only what is absolutely necessary to provide the service.

We collect and store only:
- Phone Number: Solely to send AI assistant responses to your SMS messages.
We do not collect email addresses, device information, location data, or any other personal information.
3. How We Use Your Information
Your phone number is used for one purpose only:
- To deliver AI assistant responses to your SMS messages.
Message content is processed in real-time to generate AI responses and is not stored or logged.
4. Data We Do Not Collect
We do not collect, store, or process:
- Analytics or usage statistics
- Message history or conversation logs
- Device identifiers or technical information
- Location data
- Contact lists or personal files
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, share, or disclose your phone number to any third parties for any purpose, including marketing.
Your phone number is only transmitted to our SMS service provider (Twilio) solely for the technical purpose of delivering messages. Twilio acts as a data processor under our instructions and does not use your data for their own purposes.
6. Data Retention
Your phone number is retained only as long as you remain opted-in to the service. When you opt-out (by texting STOP), your phone number is permanently deleted from our system within 10 business days. We do not retain message content or conversation history.
7. Your Privacy Rights
You can:
- Opt-out at any time by texting STOP — your number will be deleted.
- Request deletion of your data by contacting us.
- Access the open-source code to verify our data practices.
8. Open Source Transparency
This project is open source. You can inspect the code to verify our privacy claims at our GitHub repository. Our commitment to minimal data collection is enforced by code, not just policy.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes via SMS. Your continued use of the service after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
