what nohaha keeps

what you write

while your words wait in line, nobody else sees them.

an ai from our ai provider judges them for nohaha: the face they get, and whether they can be shown. the ai provider gets your words and nothing about you.

when nohaha reads them, everyone watching sees them, and they stay in nohaha's books, which anyone can open: the words, when, the face they got, and what went into the jar and came out. the books never say who wrote them.

words that can't be shown are still read, but only you see them. everyone else sees “someone's words”.

your words are kept with your ticket, so your tickets can show them to you. they never go into nohaha's logs.

your passkey

your device makes your passkey, and your passkey manager keeps it. nohaha keeps only its public half, which can't sign anyone in, and the tickets that go with it.

so nohaha can tell which words came from the same passkey, but not whose passkey it is.

signed in, your browser keeps one cookie, only to say so. “forget me” at the foot of the page removes it.

paying and cashing out

you pay over lightning, with invoices from our payment provider. an invoice doesn't say who paid it.

every ticket has a secret key: whoever has it can collect what the ticket holds. nohaha never shows it to anyone else, and it never goes into nohaha's logs.

to cash out, you give a lightning address. it goes to our payment provider, to send the sats, and is kept with the record of that payout.

where you are

our hosting provider sees your ip address, as any website's does, and may keep it in its logs for a short while. nohaha uses it only to stop anyone sending too much too fast, and doesn't keep it.

our hosting provider also says which country you're probably in. that only puts first the languages people there read: in the invitation, and when you change language. it isn't kept.

on your device

if you pick a language at the foot of the page, your browser remembers it. while the page opens again in that language, your browser holds on to what you'd written, then lets it go. neither leaves your device.

if you turn the sound off, your browser remembers that too. that doesn't leave your device either.

no analytics, no ads, no tracking. nothing on the page loads from anywhere else.

who helps

a hosting provider runs nohaha and stores what nohaha keeps. an ai provider judges what you write. a payment provider makes the invoices and sends the cash-outs. each gets only what it needs for that, and may be in a country other than yours.

how long

nohaha's books, your tickets with their payouts, and your passkey's public half are kept for as long as nohaha runs: together they're the record of every sat in and out of the jar. nohaha keeps nothing else.

taking something down

if your words are shown and you'd rather they weren't, write to gm@orklabs.com with the words. they come down, and the books keep their line as “someone's words”, so every sat still adds up.
