Privacy Policy — MCP server

Effective 4 July 2026 · operated by Jiva Studio · contact support@jiva.studio

This policy covers the Listen to Sadhu MCP server at mcp.listentosadhu.app/mcp — the connector you add to an AI assistant. It is separate from the Listen to Sadhu app's policy: the MCP server has no accounts and a different, much smaller data flow.

What it is

A public, read-only MCP server over a corpus of Vedic scripture and recorded lectures. There is no sign-in, no user account, no cookies, and no payment — anyone's assistant may connect and read.

What we receive

Only the tool arguments your assistant sends us to answer your request: search queries, verse or lecture references, and similar parameters. We do not receive your identity, your account, or your wider conversation with the assistant.

How a search is processed

To run semantic search, the text of a search query is sent to a third-party, OpenAI-compatible embedding provider to turn it into a numeric vector; that provider processes the query under its own terms. Structured reads — verses, documents, lecture transcripts — are served from our own data and are not sent anywhere else.

Logging

We keep short-lived operational logs to run, secure and improve the service. A log entry for a tool call records the tool name, the query text and filters, the result count, timing, and a non-reversible hashed client identifier (a SHA-256 of the IP, truncated — the raw IP is never stored). Reverse-proxy access logs keep only a masked network prefix of the IP (the last octet removed), not the full address.

What we do not do

Please don't send sensitive data

This is a public scriptural reference tool. Don't include personal or sensitive information in queries — as noted above, query text may be logged for a limited time.

Changes

We may update this policy; the effective date above reflects the current version. Material changes will be posted at this URL.
