Complete Privacy When You Need It
Sometimes you need a space where nothing is recorded. A conversation that exists only in the moment, then disappears completely.
Blackout Mode is now accessible directly from your Settings page under Privacy & Personalization.
What Blackout Mode Does
When you enable Blackout Mode:
No cloud storage — Your coaching session is never saved to our servers No memory creation — IX Coach won't build long-term memories from this conversation Session-only context — The coach can follow your current conversation, but forgets everything when you leave Analytics disabled — Session recordings are turned off
When to Use It
Processing something deeply personal you don't want revisited Exploring sensitive topics in complete privacy Testing ideas without them becoming part of your coaching history Any time you simply prefer a conversation that leaves no trace
How to Enable It
Open Settings (click the ⋯ menu → Settings, or go to /settings) Scroll to Privacy & Personalization Toggle Blackout Mode on
The status text updates in real-time to confirm your choice. When you're ready to resume normal coaching with memory and continuity, simply toggle it off.

*We believe privacy is not just a feature—it's a right. Blackout Mode exists because sometimes the most helpful thing a coach can do is forget.*
