Privacy

You choose when data leaves your device.

Chart calculation runs in your browser. Birth fields are not sent as part of calculation or a The Cabinet of Twelve lookup; they leave your device only if you choose account sync or type them into the assistant. Aura sends one public wallet address—not your birth or chart data—to a blockchain-data provider for a read-only lookup. Accounts, remembered Aura data, and the weekly email are optional and off by default. We show no ads and use no cross-site tracking.

What happens when you use a calculator

Every chart on this site is computed on your own device. When you enter a birth date, time, and place, that information is used by code running in your browser to calculate the chart. It is not transmitted to our servers, logged, or stored by us as part of that calculation. It leaves the device only if you later choose account sync or put it in an assistant message. This is a deliberate design choice, described in full on our methodology page.

Place search uses a list of cities that ships with the site and runs entirely in your browser. Typing a city name does not call an external service.

AI assistant

When you use the assistant, your chat messages and, when you ask about your chart, a summary of its computed placements are sent to our AI provider, Anthropic, to generate the reply. We do not store conversations, and API traffic is not used for model training. Your saved name, birth date, time, and birthplace are never attached by the assistant; anything you type into chat is part of the message you send. To enforce the daily limit, we keep a salted one-way identifier derived from your IP address with its daily count, never the raw IP; quota checks delete records older than 35 days. We send that same pseudonymous identifier to Anthropic as request metadata.

Charts you save

When you save a chart, it is stored in your browser's local storage — on your device, under your control. It is not sent anywhere unless you choose to create an account (below). Clearing your browser's site data removes saved charts. We cannot see them and cannot recover them for you.

The Cabinet of Twelve and public wallet addresses

The Cabinet of Twelve reads one public wallet address and the dated sky side by side. If you choose to add a chart already saved in this browser, its summary is an optional on-device comparison layer. The pattern and any symbolic reflection are composed on your device. When you compose or refresh an Aura, our holdings endpoint receives the public address and forwards it to the configured blockchain-data provider to check which Zodiacs.org Registry entries are present. The configured provider is currently PublicNode, operated by Allnodes. The request does not include birth fields, chart names, chart placements, or chart geometry. When the feature is enabled, the Registry landing page's optional public Shelf uses the same endpoint and sends the same single public Solana address only after you press View; it does not send chart or birth data. When Aura is off, the illustrative Shelf makes no address or provider request.

You can paste a public address without connecting a wallet. If you choose Connect, compatible third-party wallet software is invoked only after your click. It may return the public accounts you authorize to this browser; Aura selects one compatible address and forwards only that address for the lookup. Aura does not request a recovery phrase, private key, message signature, token approval, transaction, or network switch. Your wallet provider's own privacy terms apply to its software and connection prompt.

A public address is public but not necessarily anonymous. Its on-chain holdings and history may be visible and may become linked with a person or other activity. Vercel, the configured blockchain-data provider, and their infrastructure may process routine request metadata and operational or security logs, such as IP address, time, and browser information. We do not promise that a public-address request is never logged by infrastructure providers whose retention practices we do not control.

Public Registry data sources

When a relevant Registry panel is displayed, your browser may request public market data from Dex Screener or public attention data from Wikimedia. Those automatic requests do not include a wallet address, birth fields, chart data, or Aura results. The independent service still receives ordinary web-request metadata, such as your IP address, browser information, and request time, and its own privacy terms and retention practices apply.

Aura browser storage and sharing

By default, Aura keeps the public address, chain, Registry sign results, lookup time, and optional selected chart identifier in this tab's session storage. It becomes ineligible for restoration after eight hours. The unchecked “Remember this address on this device” option stores the same fields in local storage and makes them ineligible after 24 hours. Ineligible records are deleted the next time Aura reads them; if you do not return, the browser may retain the expired bytes until you clear site data. “Forget address / Clear Aura data” removes both Aura records from this browser; it cannot erase public blockchain history or infrastructure logs.

Aura share images are composed on your device. The image omits the public address, chain, chart name, birth fields, exact placements, chart geometry, and the held-sign count and list. It does not include a saved-chart fact. A browser share sheet or download sends the image to a destination you choose, whose privacy terms then apply. Clearing Aura cannot recall copies that other people or services have saved or reposted.

Optional account (sync across devices)

You can create a free account to keep your saved charts on more than one device. This is entirely optional and the tools work fully without it. If you create one:

  • You sign in with a one-time link sent to your email address — there is no password to store.
  • We store your email address and the charts you choose to sync (which include the birth details for those charts) with our database provider, Supabase, so they can appear on your other devices. Access is restricted to your own account.
  • While you are signed in, a sign-in token is kept in your browser so you stay logged in. Signing out removes it.
  • You can delete your account and its stored charts at any time by emailing admin@zodiacs.org.

Optional weekly email

Account holders can opt in to a weekly email summarizing the coming week's sky for their saved charts. It is unchecked by default. If you opt in, we store that preference and send the email through our email provider, Resend. Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe link, and you can turn it off from your profile at any time. We do not use your email for anything else and we do not sell or share it.

Daily brief, calendar, and notifications

The daily brief reads computed positions from a chart saved on your device. A transit calendar feed receives the same positions-only chart code used by the sharing feature; neither includes your name, birth date, time, place, or coordinates. If you turn on daily notifications, we store your browser's push subscription — a vendor push-service URL and its delivery keys, with no birth data — so we can send the note. You can turn notifications off at any time.

Public People pages

The People directory uses names, public birth dates and places, life dates, disciplines, and licensed portraits from reviewed Wikidata, Wikipedia, and Wikimedia Commons records. The chart is computed from those sourced facts and describes the recorded sky and its uncertainty; it does not make claims about a person's health, conduct, relationships, finances, or private life. Profiles of living people are not submitted to search engines. To request a correction, withholding, or removal, email people@zodiacs.org. We honor a subject's removal request even when the underlying public source remains unchanged.

Hosting, logs, and analytics

The site is hosted on Vercel. Like all web hosts, their servers process the requests your browser makes and may keep short-lived technical logs (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver the site and guard against abuse. We do not run advertising, and we use no cross-site tracking cookies or third-party marketing pixels. We count page views and anonymous feature usage with Plausible, a cookieless analytics service: no cookies, no cross-site tracking, no birth data, public address, chart identifier, connected account identifier, or exact held-sign list. Aura events carry only allowlisted categories such as an outcome and a coarse held-count bucket; other events similarly record “a chart was saved,” never whose.

Cookies

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. The only browser storage we use is first-party storage for features you request: saved charts, bounded Aura session data, an optional remembered Aura address, site preferences, and, if you sign in, a sign-in token. These stay on your device and are not used to track you across other sites.

Children

The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your choices

  • Use every calculator with no account and nothing stored off-device.
  • Use the Aura example without a chart, address, wallet connection, or purchase.
  • Paste a public address instead of connecting third-party wallet software.
  • Leave Aura's “Remember” option unchecked and clear its browser data at any time.
  • Delete saved charts by clearing your browser's data for this site.
  • Delete an account and its synced data by emailing us.
  • Turn the weekly email off with one click, any time.
  • Request correction, withholding, or removal of a People profile.

Changes

If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and its date. Material changes to the account or email features will be reflected here before they take effect.
