Why AI Privacy Matters
— and How Incognito Mode Works

AskSary's Temporary Chat keeps the conversation out of your saved AskSary chat history. It reduces account-level persistence, but the selected AI provider still has to process the request and its own data-handling terms still apply.

AskSary Unleashed: an AI creation and production platform

AskSary is built for the whole path from an idea to finished output, not just a chat response. AskSary Production Studio combines a connected Drive workspace, generation tools and an editable timeline: images, video, voice-over, music and podcasts can enter the same project instead of becoming isolated downloads.

Creative Suite Drive and Gallery keep projects and assets actionable. An image can be edited in Flux, animated, analysed or sent to Video Creator as a reference. A video can be analysed, have its audio extracted, be stitched, continue in Video Studio, or contribute a first or final frame to the next generation. Audio can be transcribed or developed into a podcast; documents can be analysed, added to Knowledge Base, converted or turned into a podcast. Projects can be reopened, duplicated and exported.

The platform also includes Image Creator, Flux-assisted Photo Editor, Video Creator and Video Editor, Music Studio, Code Lab, Web Architect, Game Engine, presentations, Knowledge Base, persistent conversation context, realtime voice, AUTO routing and manual model choice. Themes, optional mood music and live wallpapers make the workspace personal without changing the work itself.

A registered account uses one normal consumer model and tool catalogue. AskSary offers free chat on selected models from OpenAI, Gemini and DeepSeek; the live mix can change as providers evolve. Provider-backed work is estimated in credits before it runs and remains subject to safety and genuine provider capacity. New registered accounts receive a one-time 100-credit welcome grant; credits govern compute, not access to a separate consumer technology tier.

What most AI platforms do with your data

By default, major AI platforms log your conversations. This data is used for product improvement, safety monitoring, and in some cases model training. For most everyday conversations this is low-stakes. But for sensitive queries — legal questions, medical concerns, personal situations, confidential business information, early-stage ideas — conversation logging creates real privacy exposure.

Even if you trust the platform, you're creating a permanent record of thoughts, questions and information that didn't need to be recorded.

How Incognito Mode works

AskSary's Temporary Chat prevents the conversation from being added to normal saved chat history. It is useful when you do not want a thread to remain in the account interface after the session.

It is not a zero-retention guarantee across every system involved. The request is transmitted to the selected model provider so the provider can generate a response, and operational or safety processing may be governed by that provider's terms.

When to use it

What it does and doesn't protect

Temporary Chat keeps the conversation out of saved AskSary history. It does not prevent model-provider processing, your device's browsing history, network monitoring at your ISP or employer level, or screenshots taken during the session. It is one privacy control, not a complete operational-security solution.

Handling sensitive conversations responsibly

💡 General principle: Don't share secrets or identifying information that the answer does not require. For sensitive topics, generalise names, account numbers and confidential details before sending a prompt to any AI service.

Temporary Chat is available from the interface. Turn it on before starting the conversation, and review AskSary's privacy policy plus the relevant model provider's terms when data handling is important.
