Your data, your call

Last updated: 5 November 2026

This page explains plainly what SLINK collects, why, and where it goes. The principle: collect the minimum needed to run the service, and never sell your data.

We don't sell your data

Not to advertisers, not to anyone.

You know who reads it

We name the providers before your first message.

Delete everything

Your account and its data, from inside the app.

1 · What we collect

  • Device identifier: a random number created on your device at first launch, used to tell your guest session apart. Not tied to your name or number, and not used for ads.
  • Conversation content: the messages, images and files you send to the assistant are sent to the SLINK server and then to the AI model provider to generate replies. A copy of your chats is stored on your device; on the server, only as much as features (like memory and reminders) need.
  • Connected services: when you connect a service (Google, Telegram, Salla…), we store the required access tokens encrypted on the server, and only read from your accounts what you ask (e.g. "summarize my emails").
  • Voice dictation: runs on your device via iOS speech recognition. Your voice is not uploaded to our servers.
  • Camera & photos: used only when you choose to attach an image, and sent when you tap "Send".
  • Location: read once, only when you ask "where am I?" or about something near you, with your permission. Not stored or tracked.
  • Contacts, calendar & reminders: read only when you ask, with iOS permission each time or automatically per your choice under Settings → Data & Privacy → "Device permissions".
  • Reminders: we store the reminder text and time on the server, and it's scheduled on your phone as a local notification — no third-party push service.
  • Experience analytics: screen names and time spent, important buttons, server response time, shown errors and repeated taps — to improve the app. It contains no text from your chats or files, and you can turn it off under Settings → Data & Privacy → "Share experience data".
  • Crash & performance data: iOS crash reports and response timing. No text from your chats.

2 · What we don't do

  • We don't sell your data or share it with advertisers.
  • We don't track you across other apps or sites.
  • We don't require an account or phone number to use the app as a guest.

3 · Who we share data with

With the AI model providers, to generate replies: they receive your message text and attachments, plus the context needed (memory and connected services) to write the reply only. Current providers:

  • DeepSeek — the default engine.
  • Alibaba Cloud (Qwen) — if you select it as the engine, or as a fallback if the default fails.
  • OpenAI (GPT) via a proxy (OpenRouter or MuleRouter) — for some accounts and tasks.
  • Groq and NVIDIA — fallback only if the above fail.
  • A model running on SLINK's own servers — a last-resort fallback that doesn't send your words out.

Image generation & editing: the prompt you write and the image you ask to edit are sent to Alibaba Cloud (Qwen and Wan) to draw them only.

Google data: SLINK's use of information received from Google APIs, and its transfer to any other app, complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not use Google data to train general models or for ads.

The live list is always in the app: Settings → Data & Privacy → "Message processing", shown and consented to before your first message. We also share with the services you connect yourself to perform what you ask. There is no other third party, and we disable model training on your data where the provider allows.

4 · Retention & deletion

Delete all your chats from Settings → Data & Privacy → "Delete all conversations". Disconnect any service from the Connect page to remove its tokens.

WhatsApp Business: if you connect a business number, we store your customers' messages (text, images, files, read receipts) so they appear in the app as WhatsApp chats. Stored encrypted on our servers, visible only to you, and kept until you delete the conversation or your account.

Account deletion: inside the app — Settings → Account → "Delete account". Your account and everything attached to it is removed from our servers immediately and permanently: saved chats, memory, connected services (with Google permissions revoked), reminders, skills, and WhatsApp Business conversations. You can also request it by email.

5 · Security

Server communication is encrypted (HTTPS). Connected-service access tokens are stored encrypted and never shown again after saving. On your device, the login session is kept in the iOS Keychain.

6 · Children

The app is intended for adults and business owners, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

7 · Reporting & contact

For questions, deletion requests or reports of inappropriate content: platform@w9li.com. We respond within 7 business days.

8 · Changes

When we update this policy we update the date above, and notify you in-app for material changes.
