Curious Souls Café

1. Local Data & Backups

This app operates offline-first. Data (favorites, history, drafts) is stored in your browser's Local Storage.

*If you use "Backup & Restore" (Saved Items), the resulting JSON file is stored locally on your device. We cannot access or recover these files.

2. Hosting & Infrastructure

This site is hosted via GitHub Pages and Cloudflare Pages. Standard server logs (IP address/browser type) are automatically collected by these providers. Styling assets are loaded via standard CDNs (Google Fonts, Cloudflare, Placehold.co).

3. Feature-Specific Integrations

Specific tools connect to third-party APIs to function:

• AI Generation: Connects to Pollinations.ai to generate text prompts.
• Live Sessions: Connects to Google Sheets (data) and Google Forms (submissions).
• Translation: Search/Translate buttons send text to providers like Google or DeepL.
• Hosted Mode: If chosen, you upload decks to Pastebin or Pastes.io.

4. Data Import Proxies

The "Import from URL" feature routes requests through public proxies (AllOrigins/CORSProxy) to bypass browser security. These services receive your IP and the requested URL.

5. Unencrypted Notes

Personal notes typed into Saved Items are stored unencrypted on your device. Anyone with physical access to your unlocked phone could read them.

6. Cookies & Contact
