Account and Authentication Data:
Your Google account is used once for authentication. We store your email address and user ID.
Chat Content:
Your messages are stored on our servers (Supabase) to show you your chat history. This data is encrypted and only visible to you.
Voice Messages:
When you record a voice message, the audio file is stored encrypted on our servers (Supabase Storage, EU) so you can listen to it again later. Voice messages are automatically and irrevocably deleted after 3 days. Deletion is automated via a daily cleanup process. Audio files are not shared with third parties and not used for AI training. AI-generated voice responses (text-to-speech) are deleted after 14 days.
Metadata:

Card and bank details are entered exclusively on the encrypted Centrobill payment page, we never store card or bank data. We only receive: transaction ID, status, amount, product identifier and timestamp. This data is used for activating your subscription/coin balance, invoicing, and statutory retention (e.g. § 147 AO, § 257 HGB, typically 10 years for tax and commercial law purposes).

Personal chat content is never shared with third parties for their own purposes (e.g. marketing or sales).

We have concluded data processing agreements with these providers that prohibit the use of your data for their own purposes (e.g. AI training).
Note: The specific AI providers and models used are part of our trade secrets and may change as technology evolves. We will provide a complete, up-to-date list of our data processors upon request to support@ailina.chat as part of your right of access (Art. 15 GDPR).
Data transfer to third countries: Some of our service providers are based in the USA. Data transfer is based on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) pursuant to Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR. Where possible, we use EU servers (Supabase, Amplitude, Sentry).
6. AI-Generated Content & Transparency (EU AI Act)
All characters, profile pictures, chat responses, generated images, videos and voice messages displayed on ailina.chat are fully AI-generated and do not depict real persons.
What data is sent to AI services:
- Chat (AI text generation): The last ~20 messages of your conversation are sent as context to our AI provider to generate a response. Chat content is not used by the providers for training (zero data retention / no storage).
- Content moderation (two-layer): Each user message is checked by a two-layer automated moderation system before being forwarded to the chat system. Only the text content of the message is transmitted, no account data or personal information.
- Compliance moderation (card-network requirement): Required by our payment provider for card-network compliance (Visa/Mastercard). Every chat message (user input + AI response) is asynchronously submitted to a specialized compliance review service. Transmitted data: message text, user ID, email address and the character you're chatting with. Three or more flagged messages within 30 days result in automatic account suspension.
- Image and video generation: Only text prompts (image descriptions) and possibly a character reference image are sent to the AI provider. Your personal messages are NOT used for image generation.
- Speech synthesis and speech recognition: For AI voice replies, only the text of the bot response is sent to the speech synthesis provider. If you record a voice message, the audio file is transmitted to an AI speech-recognition provider for transcription and is not permanently stored there.
- Memory (in-house system): Memory facts extracted from conversations (e.g. preferences, mentioned interests) are stored in our own database (EU) to maintain context across multiple sessions. Extraction is performed via our AI text provider (see Chat). For semantic search, only text fragments without account data are transmitted to an EU embedding provider for vectorization.
The LoRA models used are freely available open-source weights and do not contain biometric data of real persons.
