Privacy & safety
Plain-language answers about how Milkyway handles your data.
Who Milkyway is for
Milkyway is built for people aged 13 to 25. You must be at least 13 to create an account. If you're under 18, please make sure a parent or guardian knows you're using Milkyway.
Your ideas are private
Every idea, conversation and action step is locked to your account. Nobody else — including other Milkyway users — can see them.
What we store
Your email, an optional nickname, your ideas, your conversations with the Council and your progress (XP and steps). We never ask for your address, school, phone number or photos, and the Council is instructed never to request them.
Archive vs. delete
Archiving hides an idea from your active missions and can be undone. Deleting is permanent: the idea, its full conversation and all its action steps are erased immediately and cannot be recovered.
How the AI works
The Council of Masters is an AI mentor that draws on the publicly documented thinking styles of well-known innovators. It does not represent or speak for any real person. Market insights are researched from public sources and shown with this note: "AI-estimated analysis based on current public benchmarks. Validate with direct customer interviews before building."
Staying safe
For anything involving money, contracts, meeting people you don't know, or legal questions, involve a parent, guardian or trusted adult. The Council will remind you too.
