Registered users may send messages to Lila through the website’s messaging system.
When you send a message:

These messages are processed by an AI system in order to generate replies from Lila.

The AI is used solely to generate responses and operate the Lila messaging system.
No automated decision-making with legal or financial consequences is performed.
