Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy

At Lobab, we leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance your reading and learning experience. Our goal is to provide you with the most accurate, relevant, and insightful information curated directly from our extensive library of book summaries and educational content. This policy outlines how we use AI, the measures we take to protect your data, and the limitations of our AI-powered features.

How We Use Artificial Intelligence

Lobab utilizes AI strictly as an advanced search and knowledge-retrieval assistant. When you use our "Ask Lobab" feature, our AI does not generate open-ended responses from the general internet. Instead, it is specifically engineered to search through, retrieve, and synthesize insights directly from Lobab's curated library of books and summaries. Our AI serves as your personal librarian, helping you find specific concepts, answer deep-dive questions based on published authors, and discover new reading materials tailored to your interests.

Data Privacy and Security

Your privacy and the security of your data are our highest priorities. All interactions with Lobab's AI features are protected by enterprise-grade encryption (SSL/TLS) during transmission, ensuring that no unauthorized third party can intercept or read your queries or the responses you receive.

Lobab does not store your AI conversations or session histories. Each interaction with our AI assistant is processed in real-time for the sole purpose of serving your immediate learning session. Once you close or leave the session, the conversation is not retained by Lobab and cannot be retrieved, replayed, or accessed again — by you, by Lobab, or by any third party. Your AI interactions are treated as transient, on-the-fly exchanges dedicated entirely to assisting you in the moment.

We utilize industry-leading AI providers (such as OpenAI) through secure, commercial API agreements. Under these strict contractual terms, your queries are not stored, retained, or used by these third-party providers to train, improve, or develop their general-purpose models. The data flows through their systems only for the purpose of generating a response to your specific request and is discarded immediately thereafter.

In summary: your conversations with Lobab's AI are encrypted in transit, ephemeral by design, and never used for model training by any party.

No Automated Decision-Making

Lobab does not use AI for automated decision-making that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects concerning our users. AI is used exclusively to assist with content discovery and knowledge extraction. Decisions regarding your account, subscription status, billing, or access to services are handled through standard, non-AI computational logic and human oversight where necessary.

Content Accuracy and Limitations

While our AI systems are designed to retrieve information exclusively from our verified book library, AI technology is inherently probabilistic. In some instances, the AI may misinterpret a query, synthesize information imperfectly, or generate a response that does not fully capture the nuance of the original author's intent (sometimes referred to as "hallucination"). Therefore, all AI-assisted responses should be viewed as helpful guides rather than absolute facts. We encourage users to refer back to the original book summaries or full texts within the Lobab library for definitive context and accuracy.

Human-Curated Core Content

It is important to distinguish between our AI search assistant and our core product offerings. The book summaries, learning paths, and structured educational materials available on Lobab are carefully curated, written, and reviewed by human experts. We do not use generative AI to automatically write or replace our premium book summaries. The AI acts only as a navigational and conversational layer on top of our human-verified content.

User Responsibilities

When interacting with our AI features, users are expected to adhere to our general Terms of Service. You may not use the AI features to generate harmful, illegal, or abusive content, nor may you attempt to bypass the security measures or systemic constraints placed on the AI models. Lobab reserves the right to suspend or terminate access to AI features for any user found to be misusing the system.

Updates to This Policy

As AI technology evolves and we introduce new features to enhance your learning experience, we may update this AI Policy. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the effective date. Your continued use of Lobab's AI features after such modifications constitutes your acknowledgment and acceptance of the updated policy.
