Security

Privacy that doesn't depend on trust.

You're pasting some of the most sensitive messages of your life. Here's what happens to them—in plain English, not legal fog.

The 10-second version

Three things are true on every plan: your message travels encrypted with TLS — the same protocol your bank uses for online transfers; Anthropic (Claude) processes it just long enough to generate your result and never uses it to train; anything you save on a paid plan is locked in your browser with your password before it ever leaves your device — so even we can't read it.

  • Banking-grade transit

    Every byte between your browser and our server moves through TLS — the same protocol your bank uses for online transfers. That defeats airport WiFi snooping, your ISP, and anyone else on the network between you and your screen.

  • Claude doesn't keep it

    Anthropic processes your message just long enough to generate your result, then discards it. Never used to train their models, and never reviewed by humans unless our account gets flagged for abuse. That's their published API policy, not just our promise.

  • Nothing we can read

    On Free, nothing is saved at all. On paid plans, the encryption key is built from your password inside your browser and never sent to us — so even a court order or a database breach would expose only scramble. The catch: forget your password and your saved data is gone for good.

What happens when you paste a message
  1. 1. You paste and hit Analyze

    Your message stays on your screen until you press the button. Nothing leaves your device before that—there's no autosave, no draft sent anywhere.

  2. 2. It's sent to the AI to be read

    Your message travels—scrambled in transit, the same way online banking is—to our server, which hands it to Claude (Anthropic). They process it only to generate your result. Your message is not used to train their AI.

  3. 3. The analysis comes back to you

    You see the tactics, the plain-English translation, and a suggested response on your screen.

What happens next depends on your plan

On Free, that's where it ends.

There's no account, so there's nothing to save. The analysis stays on your screen until you close the tab — and once it's gone, it's gone. Nothing about it sits on our servers afterward.

Best for a one-time read on a specific message.

On paid plans, you have the option to save.

If you save an analysis so you can build a record over time, here's what happens behind the scenes:

  1. You tap Save.
  2. Before anything leaves your device, your browser locks it inside a vault using a key built from your password.
  3. Only the locked vault travels to our storage. We never receive your password or the key — on our side it's unreadable scramble.
  4. When you sign back in with your password, your browser rebuilds the key and opens the vault — just for you, just in that tab.

Why people save

As your saved chats, backgrounds, personas, and documents build up, Darvo learns the shape of your situation — names, dynamics, recurring patterns — and its responses get more specific to you over time. Without saved history, every analysis starts from scratch.

How each plan handles your data

The privacy guarantees above apply on every plan. What changes as you upgrade is what DARVO can do for you — not how exposed your data is.

Why encryption works — and the password trade-off

Because the key is made from your password and never touches our servers, no one can force us to hand over your records in readable form—not a court, not an abuser, not us—because we genuinely cannot read them. If you're documenting abuse or a custody dispute, your records can't be quietly accessed or exposed in a data breach. The privacy is real, not a promise.

  • Your password is the only key. There is no backup key and no master key on our end.
  • If you forget your password—or reset it using "Forgot password"—everything you saved before becomes permanently unreadable. Not by us. Not by anyone.
  • Use a password you won't lose. A password manager is the safest way to keep it.
What we can — and can't — see

We can see

  • Your message in flight — TLS-encrypted in transit — for the few seconds Claude needs to analyze it.
  • Basic technical info every website receives (that a visit happened), used only to keep the site running and secure.
  • On paid plans: your email, plan, and sign-in timestamps. (There's no account on Free.)

We cannot see

  • The contents of anything you save on a paid plan — it's locked with your password. On our side it's unreadable scramble.
  • What Anthropic does with your message beyond generating your result — they don't train on it and discard it per their API policy.
  • Your password — never sent to us, never stored anywhere on our side.
  • We never sell your data — to anyone, ever.
If you're worried someone is watching your devices

We'll be honest with you, because you deserve that. We can control what happens on our side. We can't control a phone or computer that someone else has access to, or that has monitoring software installed on it.

  • Consider using a device the other person can't reach—a library or work computer, or a trusted friend's phone.
  • Use the Quick Exit button in the top corner to leave the site instantly. After you sign in, you can choose a different cover site under My Profile → Personalization & safety.
  • Open DARVO in a private / incognito window so it doesn't show up in browser history.
  • Clear your browser history afterward if you're on a shared device.

If you're ever in danger, you don't have to handle it alone. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 1-800-799-7233, and you can reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline by calling or texting 988.
