THALAMUS / Privacy

Privacy

This website presents Thalamus services and links to the engineering blog.

Local preferences

Your light or dark theme preference and your choice to pause animation may be stored in your browser’s local storage. These preferences stay in your browser; this website does not send them to a server. You can remove them by clearing this site’s browser data.

Contact enquiries

When the contact form is available, it asks for your name, email address, and message. Company and service topic are optional. Karén uses this information to respond to your enquiry. Please do not include passwords, access keys, or confidential customer data.

Cloudflare processes the request and checks it for spam using Turnstile. The form loads Turnstile when you interact with it. A short-lived rate limiter uses a hash derived from your IP address to limit repeated attempts. The email service Resend processes the message and sends it to team@thalamus.am, a mailbox hosted by Zoho. Your email address is included so Karén can reply to you.

The website does not keep a separate database of form submissions, and its contact handler does not log message contents. Resend and Zoho process and retain email under their own service policies. Sending a message does not subscribe you to a mailing list.

You can also email team@thalamus.am directly. Contact Karén at that address with questions about your enquiry or to request deletion of the correspondence he holds.

See the privacy information from Cloudflare, Resend, and Zoho.

Project assistant

The guided questions, service notes, and fictional sample work in your browser. Your draft and conversation stay in page memory. Reloading or closing the page clears them, so copy or download anything you want to keep. The assistant does not save drafts in browser storage.

When live AI is available, you choose whether to enable it before the assistant contacts Cloudflare for a spam check or AI help. Sending a question shares that question and a limited part of the conversation with Cloudflare Workers AI. Asking for suggestions shares the current brief fields. Editing a field by itself does not send it. Please omit passwords, access keys, and confidential customer information.

Thalamus does not store conversation transcripts on its server or log message contents in the assistant handler. A short-lived session and usage counters limit repeated requests. They store hashed session identifiers, a secret-derived hash of your IP address, timestamps, and counts. Sessions expire after 30 minutes; the IP-based session-creation window is one hour. Scheduled cleanup removes expired records, and the daily counters reset at midnight UTC. Cloudflare’s own infrastructure and retention policies also apply.

Cloudflare states that Workers AI customer content is not used to train models or improve its services without explicit consent. Messages are still processed by Cloudflare. See Workers AI data use and Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

AI suggestions do not change your brief fields. Choosing to use a brief in the contact form only copies it into the form; sending it remains a separate action. Opening an email draft uses your mail application. The assistant never sends email or subscribes you to a list by itself.

Analytics

If optional analytics is configured, you can accept or reject it in the cookie banner. Google Analytics stays off until you accept. Refusing it does not affect the website, contact form, or project assistant.

If you accept, Google Analytics receives page visits, technical information about your browser and device, and routine connection information needed to process the request. The site sends the page address without its query string or fragment and only the origin of the referring website. It does not send contact form fields, search queries, project briefs, or chat messages as analytics events. We do not enable advertising features or Google signals.

The thalamus_analytics_consent cookie remembers your choice for 180 days across thalamus.am and blog.thalamus.am. If you accept, Google Analytics also uses _ga cookies, with a 180-day expiry, to distinguish visits. Browser settings can shorten how long cookies last. We treat a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal as a choice to keep analytics off.

Use Cookie settings in the footer to change your choice. Rejecting analytics disables further collection on this page and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies for these sites. It does not recall requests already sent or delete data Google has already received. Other open Thalamus tabs recheck your shared choice when you return to them and at short intervals. We do not reload the page, so an unsaved project brief stays open. If your browser cannot save the choice, analytics remains off on this page; you may be asked again on your next visit.

Google processes analytics data under its own policies. See Google’s privacy policy and how Google uses information from sites that use its services. Email team@thalamus.am with questions about analytics.

Fonts, styles, illustrations, and the site’s own scripts are served as part of the site.

Links to the engineering blog and service providers take you to separate websites. Those sites have their own privacy practices.

Hosting

Cloudflare serves the public website and may process routine connection information, such as your IP address and requested page, to deliver and protect it.
