Your feelings stay yours.

VibeCheck is an academic NLP project. We didn't build it to collect data on anyone. This page is the short, plain-language version of exactly what we do and don't handle.

What you send us

The only thing VibeCheck collects is the text you type into the classifier and the model choice you make. That's it. No accounts, no names, no email, no tracking pixels, no analytics scripts.

What happens to it

Your text is sent to a HuggingFace Space we run, where one of two models classifies it and returns a label plus a confidence score. Nothing about that request is logged to a database. The Space's container holds nothing once the request finishes. Same for the browser side — your last result is held in memory, not on a server.

What we keep on your device

VibeCheck uses your browser's localStorage for three preferences only: light/dark mode, your model choice (Quick Vibe vs. Deep Dive), and your sensitive-mode toggle. Your input text, classification results, and confidence scores are kept in memory while the tab is open and wiped on a full reload — they never touch localStorage and never reach our server.

Third parties

The classifier itself runs on a HuggingFace Space. HuggingFace receives the text you submit because the model needs it to produce a prediction. The frontend is hosted on Vercel — Vercel sees normal web requests (IP, user-agent, page paths) the way any web host does, but it does not see your classifier input.

Children

VibeCheck wasn't built specifically for children, and it's not designed to handle accounts or personal data of users under 16. If you are under 16, please use the site with a parent or guardian and don't enter information that personally identifies you.

Your rights

Clear your browser's site data for checkmyvibe.me to wipe every trace of your activity. There's nothing on our side to delete because there's nothing on our side to begin with.

Changes

If we change how data flows through the app, we'll update this page and adjust the “last updated” date below. There's no mailing list to notify.
