Privacy Note

The dataset consists of real-world public-source chatbot conversations from the upstream WildChat release. Before upload, obvious emails, local filesystem paths, API-key-like strings, access-token-like strings, and password assignments were replaced with placeholders such as <EMAIL>, <WINDOWS_PATH>, <API_KEY>, and <PASSWORD>. Users should not attempt to identify conversation participants or link examples to individuals.
