# Privacy & Downloads

## What “local” means

For local generation, the model runs on your device. Your prompt is processed by that local model instead of being sent to a hosted AI provider.

Your work leaves the private device boundary only when you deliberately use a feature that requires it, such as:

* opening a normal website or third-party connector;
* asking a P2P provider to perform inference;
* publishing metadata or media;
* minting or sending a blockchain transaction;
* sharing or exporting a file.

## Wallet functions

Wallets provide economic identity, publishing, settlement, rewards, companion permissions, and provider activity across BonzAI.

BonzAI never needs your seed phrase. Your wallet asks you to approve transactions.

Before approving, check:

* the network;
* the contract or recipient;
* the amount;
* whether the action is a payment, approval, stake, mint, or claim.

## Model downloads

Models come from their published repositories and are cached locally. The model license shown in Desktop explains allowed uses. Some models permit commercial use; others impose restrictions.

## Publishing is a choice

Private generations are not automatically public. Minting, registry publication, marketplace discovery, and contribution publishing are explicit actions. NSFW generations are not eligible for public marketplace discovery.

## Dataset responsibility

Only collect and train on material you are allowed to use. BonzAI records source, license, permissions, and provenance to help, but the user remains responsible for lawful collection and publication.
