Privacy policy

Online Mind Map AI ("we", "us", "our") runs onlinemindmapai.com, a free mind map and diagram maker. We built it so you can use it without an account and without handing over your ideas. This policy explains what data is involved when you use the site, why, and what choices you have.

The short version

• There are no accounts, so we never ask for your name, email or password.
• Your maps are saved in your own browser, not on our servers.
• Only the text you send to an AI action leaves your device, and we don't keep it.
• No advertising, no tracking cookies, and we never sell your data.

Your maps

Maps you create are stored locally in your browser (IndexedDB). They are not uploaded to us, and we cannot see, recover or restore them. Clearing your browser data, using a private window or switching device or browser means you won't see those maps. Use the export options (for example JSON) to keep a backup of anything important.

AI features

When you use an AI action (generate a map, suggest sub-ideas or summarise a branch), the text needed for that request, such as your prompt or the labels of the selected branch, is sent to our server and processed by Cloudflare Workers AI, which runs the AI model on Cloudflare's network. The result is sent back to your browser. We do not store the content of AI requests or responses, and they are not used to train models. Please don't put sensitive personal information into AI requests.

Bot protection and fair use

To keep the free AI quota available for real people, we use:

• Cloudflare Turnstile, a privacy-friendly check that runs when you first use an AI action. Cloudflare processes technical signals from your browser to tell people from bots, under its Turnstile privacy addendum.
• A short-lived session cookie (omm_ai) set after a successful check, so you aren't checked on every request. It is strictly necessary, contains no personal profile and expires after 30 minutes.
• Daily usage counts keyed to your IP address (or the network prefix of an IPv6 address), so one visitor can't use up everyone's daily AI allowance. Counts are only kept for the current day (UTC) and are deleted once the day is over.

Cookies and local storage

We don't use advertising or analytics cookies. Besides the AI session cookie above, the site stores your maps and your light or dark theme choice in your browser's local storage. You can remove these at any time by clearing site data in your browser.

Server logs and hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare. Like most web hosts, Cloudflare may process standard request data (such as IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time) to deliver the site, keep it secure and prevent abuse. See Cloudflare's privacy policy for details.

Legal bases (EEA and UK visitors)

Where data protection laws such as the GDPR apply, we process the limited data above on the basis of our legitimate interests in providing a working, secure and fairly shared free service, and, for AI requests, to perform the action you asked for.

Your rights

Because we don't have accounts and don't keep AI content, we usually hold no data that identifies you. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal data. To make a request or ask a question, email us at hello@onlinemindmapai.com.

Children

The site is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and the "last updated" date above.
