What information does Quezzi keep?

2025-12-21 · Hector

Quezzi only collects what’s needed to deliver the service (your phone number, messages, and basic usage data). We don’t run ads, build profiles, or sell your data. Messages are processed automatically and aren’t linked to your identity beyond a phone number.

We often get asked what information we keep from our users.

We get it. Quezzi works through SMS, and for many people, texting still feels like one of the most personal and private parts of their phone.

So it’s fair to ask:

  • Can you see my messages?
  • Do you know who I am?
  • How private is Quezzi, really?

How most tech companies make money from data

Many major tech platforms don’t “sell your personal data” as a file with your name on it. Instead, they build detailed profiles based on your behaviour — what you click, watch, search, buy, and engage with — then sell advertisers access to those profiles so ads can be targeted with extreme precision.

That works because those platforms often collect far more than a single identifier. They may know (or infer) your interests, location, device details, browsing behaviour, and more.

What Quezzi collects (and why)

Quezzi is built differently. We charge for the service, and we don’t run ads or build advertising profiles.

Here’s what we collect — and only because it’s required to make the service work:

  • Your phone number This is how we send and receive texts, and how your account is identified. It is not linked to other identifiers like your name, address, or email.

  • Your messages and Quezzi’s replies This allows the AI to respond and maintain conversational context. We only retain a limited recent message history rather than storing full conversations long-term.

  • Basic usage data Such as timestamps and message counts, used to operate the service and manage plan limits.

  • Payments Payment processing is handled securely by Stripe. We don’t store full card details on our servers.

What Quezzi does not collect

We do not collect things like:

  • your contact list or phone book
  • your name
  • your address
  • your email address
  • your precise GPS location (we only use a general location if you voluntarily provide it, such as “Sydney”)
  • your photos, apps, or browsing history
  • your social media profiles
  • advertising identifiers used to track you across the internet

And we never sell your data or use your messages for advertising.

So, can Quezzi staff read messages?

Technically, messages are processed so the system can generate replies. In practice, messages are handled automatically.

Staff access is limited and only used when necessary for support, debugging, safety, or service improvement, and access is restricted. Even then, messages are associated only with a phone number, not with personal identity details like a name or email.

Who else processes messages?

To operate Quezzi, some data is shared with trusted providers under their own privacy policies, including:

  • OpenAI, to generate AI responses
  • Google, when web search is required for up-to-date information
  • Twilio or Mobile Message, to deliver SMS (depending on country)
  • Stripe, for payments

When AI or search services are used, messages are not shared with personal identity details beyond what is technically required to process the request.

For example, if you text Quezzi:

“What’s a good recipe for chicken soup?”

The request shared with our providers does not include your phone number. The message is shared so you get a great answer, but our providers can only see that the request came from Quezzi — not from you 🙂

One important note about SMS

Here’s the honest truth: standard SMS is not end-to-end encrypted. Your mobile carrier can potentially access SMS content, and SMS has known security limitations.

For this reason, please don’t send highly sensitive information (such as passwords, card numbers, or highly personal medical details) via Quezzi.

The simple summary

Quezzi is designed to be the opposite of “data-hungry” platforms:

  • We collect the minimum needed to run the service
  • We don’t build advertising profiles
  • We don’t sell your information
  • You can delete your account and request deletion of your data (subject to legal retention requirements)

If you’d like full details, you can read our Privacy Policy and FAQ anytime.

We built Quezzi for people who want useful AI without surveillance, accounts, or data harvesting — and we intend to keep it that way.
