We have only one method to identify you. That is by using a hardware based ID generated by our client application when you run it -- and that too only when you create or join a forum. Such identifiable data would be used ONLY to create your account and nothing more. We do NOT insist on collecting your email address. If you do provide it, we use it only for notifications. We may occasionally send you important messages and or payment reminder. Our users are not really creating any meaningful data on our servers. All the main work of our system is done by the client application that runs on your computer. So all the forum data and the control over the data are with you. The contents of each forum are protected by a strong symmetrical password. That password is generated only at your computer and we have no access to it. None of the content that is generated by the client application ever reaches us. Instead the encrypted version of it gets pinned by the client application directly from your computer to the IPFS (Inter-planetary file system) cloud. We do NOT use cookies in our system anywhere on our own servers. For some subdomains (such as this documentation) we use external services. We also use an external payment gateway. They may have their own privacy standards which we have no control over. We may implement some statistical analysis system such as Google analytics. There could be cookies that those systems may set in your browser. Please note that those are NOT cookies created by our server. --- # 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.peercontent.com/legals/privacy.md?ask=&goal= ``` `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.
