Privacy policy

Last updated 22 October 2026

Ayana AI is made and run by Pradeep Siddappa, an independent developer based in India. You can reach me through the contact page.

Ayana AI (www.astroayana.com) is free Vedic astrology. In short: there are no accounts, we don't keep your birth details on our servers, and the charts you save stay in your own browser. The calculation engine that receives your birth details is open source — its source code shows it computes the chart and keeps nothing.

What stays in your browser

• Your saved charts — names and birth details you enter (date, time, place).
• Your AI results and conversations — readings, reports and Ask Ayana chats, so you don't lose them or pay twice.
• Your AI key, if you add one.

These are kept in your browser's local storage on your device. They are never uploaded to us and don't follow you to other devices on their own. Copy charts (name menu) lets you copy them across yourself: this device shows a QR code, or makes a code or a small file, holding the chosen charts' birth details; you scan it with the other device's camera, or copy, share or save it and open it there. The QR code is a link with the charts after the “#”, a part browsers never send to a server, and the page clears it from the address bar once read. It never passes through our servers — whoever you give the code to can add those charts, so send it only to yourself. Readings, conversations and your AI key don't travel. You can remove a chart (and everything saved with it) from the name menu → Manage charts, turn off AI answers from the name menu, or clear everything by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.

If you install the app (Add to Home Screen), the browser also keeps a small offline page and the app icon, so it can show a friendly message when there's no connection. Nothing personal is stored for that, and no pages or answers are cached. On iPhone, the installed app keeps its own storage, separate from Safari's.

What passes through our servers (and isn't kept)

• Calculating a chart. Your birth details are sent to our calculation engine, which returns the chart. We don't store them.
• Finding your birth place. City search uses a built-in list of places. If a place isn't in it, the name you typed (only that) is looked up with OpenStreetMap's Nominatim service.
• AI answers. When you ask for a reading or ask a question, your question and the calculated chart facts (which include the birth details) are passed through our server to the AI company you chose, using your key. Your key is sent with each request and passed on — never stored or logged by us.
• Ayana inside ChatGPT. If you use the Ayana app in ChatGPT, ChatGPT sends us only what the tool needs for your question — for example a Moon sign, a birth date, time and place, or a city — and we return the calculated facts. We don't store them and there's no account. Your conversation itself stays with ChatGPT and is covered by OpenAI's privacy policy.

Our code doesn't log the content of requests. Our hosting provider, Vercel, keeps standard technical logs (such as IP address, time and page requested) for a short time to run and protect the service.

Messages you send us

The contact form is delivered by Web3Forms to the developer's inbox — your name (if given), email and message, nothing else. It isn't stored on this site; we use your email only to reply.

The AI company you choose

Written answers come from an AI company you pick — for example Google (Gemini), OpenRouter, Anthropic (Claude) or OpenAI — under your own account and that company's terms and privacy policy. Free AI accounts may let the company use what you send (including birth details) to improve its models; paid accounts generally don't. With “Connect in one click”, your browser talks to OpenRouter directly to set up your key; our server never sees that exchange.

Cookies, analytics and ads

Ayana AI sets no cookies of its own. To know how many people visit and which pages they use, it counts page views with Vercel Web Analytics — cookieless, with no personal data and no tracking across sites; your birth details and questions are never part of it. It doesn't show ads today. If ads are added (for example Google AdSense), the ad provider uses cookies to show and measure ads; this page will name the provider and how to control personalised ads, visitors in the EU and UK will be asked for consent first, and your birth details will never be shared with advertisers — they stay in your browser.

Children

Ayana AI isn't aimed at children under 16. Please don't use the contact form if you're under 16.

Your choices

Your charts, readings and AI key are in your browser and under your control — remove them any time from the name menu, or by clearing this site's data. The only thing that reaches us is a message you choose to send; ask and we'll delete it. Questions about this policy? Contact the developer.

For visitors in the EU and UK (GDPR)

• Who is responsible: Pradeep Siddappa, the developer of Ayana AI, is the data controller. Reach me through the contact page.
• What and why: birth details are processed only to calculate the chart and readings you ask for (to provide the service you request), and never stored by us. Contact messages are used only to reply to you (our legitimate interest in answering). Cookieless page-view counts help us see which pages are useful (legitimate interest; no profiles, no cross-site tracking).
• Who processes it for us: Vercel (hosting and page-view counts), Web3Forms (contact form), OpenStreetMap Nominatim (place lookup, only for places not in our list), and — only if you connect one — the AI company you choose, under your own account.
• Where: these services may process data outside the EU/UK, including the United States, under their standard safeguards (such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses).
• How long: we keep nothing on our servers. Vercel's technical logs are short-lived; contact messages stay in the developer's inbox only as long as needed to reply.
• Your rights: you can ask to access, correct or delete anything you've sent us, or object to its use — through the contact page. You can also complain to your local data-protection authority.
• No cookie banner: Ayana AI sets no cookies and uses no ads or tracking that need consent; what your browser stores is only what you asked it to keep. If that ever changes, you'll be asked first.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version is published here with a new date.
