Data Protection

How Schatzi Protects Your Data

Schatzi AI is built on a foundation of user ownership, privacy-first engineering, and fully Swiss-operated infrastructure.
You remain the master of your data at every moment.

User-Controlled Privacy

You Own Your Data — Always

Your prompts, conversations, and files are yours, not ours.
We give you complete control over what is stored, for how long, and what is deleted.

You can:

  • Delete your entire chat history at any moment
  • Remove uploaded files immediately after use
  • Disable or limit history retention
  • Customize privacy settings per workspace
  • Manage API keys, account data, and tokens
  • Keep only what you intentionally decide to keep

We do not:

  • Train on your data
  • Analyze or harvest content
  • Reuse your information for any purpose
  • Retain content longer than technically necessary

This is privacy by design — not by marketing.

Swiss Hosting (Jurisdiction Reinforcement)

Swiss Infrastructure Only

Although you control your data, Schatzi reinforces this through a strict infrastructure policy:

  • All processing occurs on servers physically located in Switzerland
  • No hidden replication, no overseas “backup copies”

Key benefits of Swiss jurisdiction:

  • Protected by the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP)
  • Strong confidentiality protections
  • Stable and predictable legal environment

User ownership + Swiss jurisdiction = maximum privacy guarantees.

Zero Data Retention (Unless You Choose Otherwise)

We Only Keep What You Explicitly Want to Keep

By default, Schatzi uses a minimal retention approach:

  • Prompts: Deleted after processing unless you voluntarily enable history
  • Uploads: Automatically removed after the model finishes processing
  • Responses: Not stored server-side after delivery
  • Model outputs: Not used for training or profiling

If you disable history, no persistent conversation data remains.

Your confidential information stays confidential — with zero training, zero profiling, and zero data selling.

FADP & GDPR Compliance

We align fully with:

  • FADP (Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection)
  • GDPR (EU General Data Protection Regulation)

Our compliance features include:

  • Data minimization
  • Purpose limitation
  • Transparent data processing
  • User rights access (export, deletion, correction)
  • Strict storage limitation
  • Legal basis for every data-handling operation

You can request a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) at any time.
