Your Privacy Matters
Your privacy and safety are at the heart of how we design every part of Chomsky.
Our therapeutic companion is carefully designed using insights from peer-reviewed research, foundational psychological texts, and therapeutic best practices. We maintain an uncompromising ethical standard: we proactively refer users to human therapists when appropriate, and we guarantee that your conversations remain strictly confidential—never used for AI training or shared with external providers.
Your data and conversations remain private, secure, and under your control. We know therapy is deeply personal, and we treat your conversations with the same respect and confidentiality that a professional therapist would.
