Questions
Shelters and housing: Common Questions
Can people ask without giving their name?
Yes. Turn verification off and anyone can ask anonymously. Conversations are still protected by rate limits.
What if someone is in crisis?
Add your crisis line as a curated fact and mention it in the bot's instructions. The bot then shares it whenever someone describes an urgent situation.
Where is conversation data stored?
In Canada. You choose how long it's kept, and our staff can't read it unless you allow access.
