Your browser sends the message to Isleo's protected chat route. The server validates the request, applies usage and safety controls, and builds the recent conversation context needed for a useful reply.
The server then sends that necessary text to its configured model provider. For signed-in users, Isleo stores messages so history can be restored. The model key remains on the server throughout this path.
This is not end-to-end encryption, zero retention, or local-only AI. If those properties are essential to you, Isleo is not the right claim to rely on. Read the Privacy Policy before sharing sensitive information.
