# Your Privacy

Your conversations with the AI Helper are private, and your sensor data stays secure.

## It works only within your access

The helper uses your active login session to decide what it can do. If you can view a sensor on your dashboard, the helper can answer questions about it; if you can change an automation, the helper can help you change it. If you can't do something yourself, neither can the helper. There is no special elevated access.

## It asks before anything big

When you ask the helper to set something up, the small, safe steps just happen — but before anything important or permanent, like removing a device or an automation, it shows a clear **Confirm Action** / **Cancel** prompt and waits for you. You're always the one who approves a real change.

## Your home is isolated

The helper is walled off from every other household on the platform. It cannot access data from other homes, and no one else's helper can access yours — even if you belong to more than one home in Chirp.

## What gets saved

Your questions and the helper's answers are stored so you can scroll back through previous conversations. This chat history is private to your individual account. Other members of your household cannot see what you asked or what the helper replied.

## What does not get saved

Raw sensor readings are not copied or stored by the helper. Passwords, payment details, and API keys are never captured in conversation logs.

## How a question gets answered

1. You type a question.
2. The helper interprets what you mean.
3. It queries only the sensor data and resources your account is authorized to access.
4. It composes an answer and streams it back to you in real time.

## A simple guideline

Do not paste passwords or API keys into the chat. The helper does not need them, will not use them, and they do not belong in a conversation log.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.chirpwireless.io/ai-assistant/your-privacy.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
