Privacy and AI disclosure
Privacy
Plain version: we use what you send us to respond to you. Nothing you send is used to train any AI model.
Forms (topics, guests, sponsors, press, hello)
What you submit is emailed to the inbox for that form (for example guests@tawsdaily.com) so Austin can read it and reply. For guest and sponsor forms, what you typed is sent to an AI model (Anthropic's Claude, via its API) once, to suggest follow-up questions. Form data is used only to respond to you. It is never used to train models.
Ask Ron
Your question is sent to an AI model (Anthropic's Claude, via its API) with excerpts from episode transcripts, to generate the answer you see. We don't store your question or the answer, and we don't reuse them. Chat data is used only to respond to you and is never used to train models.
The Loop
Your email address is used to send you The Loop, and nothing else. Unsubscribe any time.
Spam and abuse protection
Forms and Ask Ron use Cloudflare Turnstile to check you're a person. To limit abuse we count requests per IP address over a short window. We store a one-way hash of the IP address with that count, never the address itself, and the count resets after the window.
Analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which does not use cookies and does not track you across sites.
AI disclosure
Ron, the show's co-host and the voice of Ask Ron, is an AI. Episode summaries, chapters and story breakdowns on this site are AI-generated from episode transcripts and labelled as such. Austin chooses the stories and makes the show.
