How we keep your private conversations private

1. Conversation privacy

When you talk with a companion, your conversations are yours alone — never sold, and never used to train shared models.

• Local encryption: Messages and voice are encrypted on your device before they ever leave it.

• One-way storage: We store only what’s needed for continuity — never a raw transcript tied to your identity.

2. Encryption standards

All studio communications use AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit.

• Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP): Your companion can remember context and progress without us ever accessing your personal identity.

• Infrastructure: Data is siloed across decentralized nodes to prevent a single point of failure.

3. Compliance & audits

The Garden is fully compliant with GDPR and SOC 2 standards for personal data handling. Our security architecture undergoes independent audits every six months to keep our ‘Zero-Leakage’ guarantee absolute.
