Only Your Device Can Read Your Data
Privacy in SoZo: Your Data, Your Rules
For SoZo, privacy means your data is yours alone. You own it, you control it. It is never sold, never tracked, and never used to train AI models. Unlike other services that use your conversations to improve their global AI, SoZo keeps your data private by design.
Here is the most important thing to know: Only your device holds the keys to your data. The SoZo server stores your information, but it cannot read it. Only your phone or computer can decrypt and view your content.
Here is how it works in plain terms:
1. Only Your Device Can Read Your Data
Most apps send your data to their servers in a readable format. SoZo is different.
You Hold the Keys: Your conversations and memories are locked with a key that only exists on your device. We don’t have it. Before any data leaves your phone or computer, it is unlocked using a key that only exists on your device.
Scrambled Data: Our server stores only scrambled data (encrypted blobs) of your memories and conversations. Even if someone hacked our servers or demanded your data, they would only see gibberish. SoZo knows that you have data, but we cannot read what is inside it. We do not have the keys to unlock it.
No Central Password: Your access is secured by passkeys (biometrics/PIN) that never leave your device. There is no central password database to leak. If you lose your passkeys/password, even we cannot recover your data because we do not have the keys.
How SoZo AI Sees your data:
Decrypt Locally: When you start a chat, your device decrypts your saved memories.
Secure Transfer: Your device sends these decrypted memories, along with your current question, to SoZo AI over a secure, encrypted connection (the same security standard used by banks).
Isolated Processing: SoZo AI processes your request in an isolated environment. It does not store this data.
Secure Return: SoZo AI sends the answer back to your device over the same secure connection.
Forget: Once the response is delivered, the SoZo AI discards the data. It is not saved.
To put it simply, every time you access SoZo, your AI answers your current questions and engages with you by accessing the memories you have saved. Your past is a part of the present, and SoZo AI creates a full picture of your habits, patterns, whatever you are trying to track and curious about over time. Nothing you discuss with SoZo AI is “lost” when you log off, as your data is encrypted and no one has access to any of it but you. You sign in - ask a question - and SoZo AI provides an answer that is unique to you. You sign off - and all of your data awaits your next log in - available to you and no one else.
2. SoZo AI: Helpful, Not Watchful
Most AI systems require you to surrender privacy for convenience. They send your prompts to cloud servers where they may be logged, reviewed, or used to train future models. SoZo AI is different:
No Shared Training Data: SoZo AI does not use your conversations to train its global models. Your conversations stay yours as encrypted blobs. We do not tap into public, general-purpose AI models that are trained on billions of users’ data.
Isolated, Secure Processing: When you ask SoZo AI a question, it processes the request in an isolated, secure environment. It generates a response and then forgets the conversation. The AI model is stateless and does not store your questions or outputs in a persistent database that can be accessed later.
No Behavioral Profiling: Unlike many AI solutions, SoZo does not track who you are, what you search for, or how you behave to sell your information to advertisers.
3. Your Memories: Assisted by SoZo, Controlled by You
Personalization often conflicts with privacy. We solved this by making memories transparent and controllable.
How It Works: SoZo AI automatically identifies and saves important facts from your conversations to personalize your experience (e.g., saving that you are allergic to peanuts). However, you have full transparency and control. You can view every saved memory in your ‘Memories’ at any time. You can edit, add, or delete any memory. If you delete it, it is gone forever. SoZo AI only uses what is currently in your ‘Memories’.
The "On-Demand" Memory Process by our AI:
SoZo AI does not have a permanent memory of you.
Your device decrypts your saved memories and preferences and sends them to SoZo AI only for the duration of your request.
Once the request is complete, the decrypted data is cleared from AI’s memory. The server never saw the plaintext data; it only processed the request and returned the result.
The Bottom Line
Privacy in SoZo is structural, not optional.
Other Apps: "We encrypt your messages, but we still know who you are, what you search for, and we use that data to improve our AI."
SoZo: "We encrypt everything. Our AI helps you in the moment, but it never sees your identity, never stores your conversation logs within the AI, and never uses your data to train AI models. It only uses your memories and only for the duration of the conversation. When you leave, it forgets."
You own your data. You control your memory. And you keep your privacy.
