Hey, Busta is a small interactive AI artwork. This page describes what it stores and why.

## What gets sent to the server

When you type a prompt to Busta, the text is sent to the server so it can be forwarded to Anthropic's Claude API. The selected persona's id and recent reply history (for de-duplication) are sent alongside it. When Busta speaks back, the response text is sent to ElevenLabs to synthesize audio.

We do not collect names, emails, accounts, or tracking cookies. IP-derived data is limited to Cloudflare's standard rate-limit and abuse-prevention metadata.

## What gets stored

Nothing persistent. Hey, Busta has no database — prompts, replies, and audio are processed per-request and discarded. Server logs may briefly retain prompt/reply text for debugging.

## Third parties

- **Anthropic** — your prompts are processed by the Claude API. See [Anthropic's privacy policy](https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy).
- **ElevenLabs** — Busta's reply text is sent to ElevenLabs for voice synthesis. See [ElevenLabs' privacy policy](https://elevenlabs.io/privacy).
- **Cloudflare** — hosting and rate limiting. See [Cloudflare's privacy policy](https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/).

## Local storage

Hey, Busta does not write to localStorage.
