Privacy
Last updated: 31 July 2026
The short version. gptexport has no accounts, no cookies and no database. The conversation you export is fetched, converted in memory and handed straight back to you — it is never written to storage. Two things do exist and are described below: anonymous visit statistics and ordinary server logs.
What happens to a share link you paste
- Your browser sends the
chatgpt.com/share/…link to/api/exporton this site. - The server fetches that public page from ChatGPT, converts it to the format you picked and returns the file in the same response.
- The conversation exists only in memory, for the length of that one request. It is not written to
a database, and the response carries
Cache-Control: private, no-store, so it is not kept on the CDN either. - The text of the conversation is never written to a log.
What is collected
Anonymous visit statistics. The site loads Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights. They set no cookies and build no cross-site profile; they record aggregate things like which page was opened, the referring site, country, device type and page-loading timings. This data is not sold and not used for advertising.
Server logs. The hosting platform records requests to this site. A log line contains the requested path, and because the share link travels in the query string, the share identifier can appear there. When an export fails, the application additionally logs that identifier together with the reason, which is how a broken parser gets noticed at all. Logs are kept by the hosting platform for a limited retention period and are used only for operating and debugging the service.
Settings in your browser. Two values in localStorage — your chosen
theme and lang. They never leave your device and are not readable by us.
What is not collected
- No accounts, no sign-in, no password.
- No cookies of any kind, and no advertising or cross-site trackers.
- No conversation content in any database, cache or file.
- No email address unless you choose to write to us.
Who else is involved
Vercel Inc. hosts the site and provides the analytics and logging described above. OpenAI receives a request from our server when it fetches the public share page you asked for — the same page anyone with that link can open. We send nothing else to them, and we have no access to your ChatGPT account.
A word about share links
A ChatGPT share link is public by design: anyone holding it can read the conversation, with or without this site. Please keep that in mind before exporting a link that was sent to you in confidence. gptexport cannot open private chats and never asks for your ChatGPT credentials.
Your rights
If you are in the EU/EEA or the UK, the GDPR gives you the right to access, correct, erase or object to the processing of your personal data, and to complain to your local supervisory authority. In practice there is very little here to act on: no profile is built and no conversation is retained. What can be acted on is the log entries described above — write to us and we will have them removed ahead of their normal expiry where the platform allows it.

Changes
If this page changes, the date at the top changes with it. There is no mailing list to notify, by design — there are no accounts to notify.
