Introduction
Chatmefy ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our AI-powered chat platform and related services.
Unlike many AI services that rely on third-party providers, Chatmefy operates on its own proprietary infrastructure and AI models. This gives us complete control over how your data is processed and stored.
