Editorial note: This guide is about verifying the controls visible to you today. Product interfaces, plans and policies change, so check the live account and help pages before you rely on a setting or make a payment.

Start by identifying what the app asks you to share before you type anything personal. Dondi.ai: privacy checks before your first conversation is a practical, low-pressure way to work through that decision. It does not assume that an AI companion will handle a feature in a particular way, and it does not ask you to share sensitive information to find out.

Start with one clear question

For this session, write down the single outcome you want: perhaps you want to see where a privacy choice lives, understand a renewal screen, or find the account-deletion instructions. A narrow goal prevents a long session from becoming a substitute for a decision. Keep your note factual: the date, the page you viewed, the label you saw and what happened after you selected it.

Five checks to make before you continue

  • Which fields are optional?
  • Can you limit profile visibility?
  • Where are privacy choices documented?
  • Can you change the setting later?
  • What does the deletion screen actually promise?

Do these checks in the order that feels least intrusive. If the product asks for more information than your test requires, stop and look for a documented reason or a different route. Privacy is not a single toggle. Treat it as a short inventory: account details, profile details, conversation content, uploaded media and device permissions each deserve a separate check.

How to use this guide in a real session

Use this as a pre-registration checklist. Complete the visible settings review before adding personal detail or a payment method. Start in a private browser profile or a device state you understand. Use a password you do not reuse elsewhere and avoid connecting unrelated social accounts unless you have a specific reason. If you decide to upload media, pause first and confirm that you understand where it will appear, whether it can be removed, and what copies may remain under the current policy.

When you encounter a prompt, separate three things: what the product is asking you to do, what it says will happen, and what you can verify yourself. For example, a button label can show that an action exists, while a help article or confirmation screen may explain the next step. If those pieces do not line up, make a note and do not fill the gap with assumptions.

A small evidence record

Use a short record rather than collecting screenshots of every screen. The useful minimum is: date and time; the name of the setting or page; the exact action you took; the confirmation you received; and the support address or help-centre route you found. Do not include intimate chat content in your record unless it is genuinely required for a support request.

This approach is especially useful for subscription and deletion questions. A receipt shows that a transaction happened; it does not automatically prove that renewal was disabled. A confirmation email may show that a request was received; it does not necessarily describe the retention of all account data. Read the wording that is actually provided, and keep the original message.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Assuming a trial, credit pack and recurring plan follow the same rules.
  • Using a promotional banner as the only source of billing information.
  • Equating account cancellation with profile deletion or data removal.
  • Sharing identifying details before testing the controls that protect them.
  • Waiting until a problem occurs before locating the support path.

What a useful outcome looks like

At the end of this check, you should be able to say either “I found the control and understand the next step,” or “I need clearer information before I continue.” Both are useful outcomes. The purpose is not to force a yes; it is to make the next action deliberate. If the details are unclear, use the documented support channel and ask a focused question rather than guessing.
