Search stays in your browser

Search terms stay in memory while this page is open. This page does not send them to us or an analytics service, save them to browser storage, or put them in the URL. It sets no analytics cookies and does not remember your player choice after a reload.

Technical information still gets processed

AWS processes connection and request information, such as your IP address and browser details, to deliver this site. We use default aggregate request, transfer and error metrics. CloudFront viewer access logs and website-bucket access logs were off at the hosting review. AWS may process other operational records; this is not a promise of zero retention. Aggregate metrics follow AWS’s metric-retention schedule (opens in a new tab).

You choose whether to load Podbean

The embedded player connects only after you select “Load Podbean player.” Podbean and its delivery services then receive connection information and may use cookies or browser storage. Playback sends additional episode and timing information. Removing the player stops this page’s embed; it does not delete provider data or cookies. Podbean controls its retention. See its privacy policy (opens in a new tab) and cookie policy (opens in a new tab).

Optional Agent 164 podcast helper

The helper checks availability when this page opens and periodically afterward, sending connection information to its AWS-hosted API. Sending a message sends your question and matching podcast titles/descriptions to Kimi on AWS Bedrock in the US. It searches metadata, not transcripts; book answers are unavailable in this pilot. Avoid personal, health or recovery details.

The application does not save conversation text. The conversation stays in this tab until reload. A pseudonymous network-derived identifier supports abuse limits; it is not a promise of anonymity. Request-ID records expire after seven days, rate-limit records after two days, and monthly usage counters after 100 days. Database expiry deletion can take longer. Operational error logs have seven-day retention. Bedrock request/response content logging was disabled in all three US routing regions at the November 6, 2026 review. AWS and model-serving systems still process data; this is not a promise of zero provider retention.
