13. CORTEX Web Chat Assistant
This website operates an AI-based chat assistant ("CORTEX Assistant") that answers visitor questions about the software, plans, and setup. Note: CORTEX Assistant is a support-only chatbot — it is not identical to the trading engine in the product and makes no market decisions.
13.1 Data processed
- Chat content: Your inputs and generated responses are transmitted to our processor Anthropic PBC (USA) for response generation.
- Session ID: A random UUID stored in your browser (sessionStorage) for up to 6 hours to preserve conversation context.
- Hashed IP address: Your IP is salted and SHA-256 hashed into a 32-character hash (no plaintext storage), exclusively for rate limiting and abuse prevention.
- Hashed user agent + language + visited page: for language mapping and simple analytics.
- Cloudflare Turnstile: For protection against automated abuse, a bot-detection token from Cloudflare is processed (comparable to an invisible CAPTCHA, no tracking cookies).
13.2 Purpose
Providing automated first-line support and answering recurring questions about the software, licensing, and installation.
13.3 Legal basis
Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest in efficient support provision and protection against abuse (bot detection, rate limiting).
13.4 Retention
- Conversation content: Held in server memory only short-term (max. 30 minutes), not persisted in a database.
- Metadata (session ID, IP hash, token count, latency, detected intent): up to 90 days for abuse prevention and cost monitoring.
- Cloudflare Turnstile tokens: Processed only for real-time validation, not persistently stored.
13.5 Processors
- Anthropic PBC, San Francisco, USA — AI chat processing. Transfer to the USA is based on EU Standard Contractual Clauses; a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) has been concluded.
- Cloudflare Inc., San Francisco, USA — bot protection via Turnstile (in addition to existing CDN function).
13.6 Objection and opt-out
You can deactivate the chat assistant at any time by appending the parameter ?cortex=off to any page URL. The setting applies to the current browser session. Alternatively, simply leave the widget unused — without input, no data is transmitted to Anthropic.
