Who we are

Curio is operated by Curiosbot Digital S.L. (Zaragoza, Spain), the data controller. Contact: privacy@curiosbot.com.

What Curio processes

When you press “Start talking”, your microphone audio is streamed, encrypted, directly from your browser to our AI provider (OpenAI) so Curio can understand you and reply. Curiosbot does not record, store or listen to your audio. Text transcripts are shown on your screen as captions and are discarded when the conversation ends. If you type, your messages are processed the same way.

What we keep

Only anonymous, aggregated statistics: number of conversations, minutes used, response times, error counts and safety-filter counts. To enforce fair daily limits we use a one-way, salted fingerprint of your IP address that changes every day; we never store the IP address itself. We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising. Your browser may remember your language and the consent checkbox (local storage on your device only).

AI provider

OpenAI processes audio and text on our behalf to generate Curio's replies and to check messages for safety (moderation). Under OpenAI's API terms, API data is not used to train models by default and is retained for a limited period for abuse monitoring. Data may be processed outside the EU under appropriate safeguards (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses).

Children

Curio is designed to be safe for children: it avoids asking for personal details, discourages sharing them, keeps topics age-appropriate and suggests talking to a trusted grown-up about anything serious. In Spain, children under 14 need a parent or guardian’s consent; please use Curio together with your child.

Legal basis & your rights

We rely on consent (given via the start screen) for microphone processing and on legitimate interest for anonymous service statistics. You may withdraw consent at any time by ending the conversation. Because we do not keep identifiable conversation data, there is normally nothing to access or delete, but you can contact us with any request and you may complain to the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (aepd.es).

Not a substitute for people

Curio is an AI character. It can make mistakes and does not have feelings. It is not a teacher, doctor or emergency service. In an emergency, call 112.
