Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-04-01 — Written by humans, reviewed by the same AI that thinks your emails are bullshit.
We collect as little data as possible. We do not sell your data. We do not use cookies. We do not require registration. The text you submit is used only to generate your BS score. We store a short excerpt only if you explicitly opt in to the leaderboard. Your IP address is hashed (anonymised) for abuse prevention only.
1. Who We Are
AIGENERATEDBULLSHIT.COM is an independent satirical tool that analyses text for corporate bullshit content. We are not affiliated with any corporation, political party, or organisation whose communications we may or may not find hilarious.
For privacy-related enquiries: privacy@aigeneratedbullshit.com
2. What Data We Collect
We collect only the minimum data necessary to operate the service:
- Submitted text — Sent to Anthropic for scoring. Not stored in full unless you opt in to the leaderboard. Only the first 100 characters are retained for shared result display.
- BS scores and metadata — Analysis results stored to power caching and shared result URLs.
- Hashed IP address — Your IP is hashed and used solely for rate limiting. The raw IP is never stored.
- Nickname (optional) — Only if you opt in to the leaderboard and provide one.
- Email address — Only if you subscribe to the newsletter. Used only to send the weekly report.
- Anonymised analytics — Via Plausible. No cookies. No personal data. Aggregate statistics only.
We do not collect: names, location data, device identifiers, cookies, or any other personal information.
