What stays in your browser
- Searches run in your browser against a downloaded copy of the data.
- ATC export files are read in your browser and are never uploaded.
- Saved objects and your theme choice are stored in your browser’s local storage. Clearing site data removes them.
What is sent to a server
- Explain, Convert and the remediation outline. The text you submit is sent through our server to Anthropic’s Claude API to generate the answer. We don’t store it or log its contents. Anthropic processes it under its commercial terms and privacy policy. For the remediation outline, only aggregated counts are sent, not object names or code.
- Bot protection. Cloudflare Turnstile checks that requests to Claude come from a person. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
- Analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page views without cookies or cross-site tracking.
- Hosting logs. Our host, Cloudflare, processes IP addresses to deliver and protect the site.
Please don’t paste confidential code
