Guidance without data collection

Choose a topic or ask a general question. The assistant works entirely in your browser and routes you to reviewed pages.

This conversation stays on this page in your browser. It is not sent to the Center or stored after you leave or reload.

ARC

I can guide you to reliable information on this site. I do not diagnose, calculate personal risk, interpret a result, or replace urgent local care.

Help center FAQs

Can the assistant calculate my personal risk?

No. Individual assessment requires a qualified local service. A possible recent exposure can require prompt action.

Are my questions stored?

No. The conversation stays in the current browser window and is not sent to the Center or retained after you leave or reload.

Can the assistant interpret an HIV test?

It explains test types and window periods but does not interpret a personal result. A reactive screening test normally requires the applicable confirmation process.

Does this help replace medical care?

No. It guides people to public information and sources; it is not a diagnostic, emergency or treatment service.

When it is urgent

Do not wait for a website.

For a medical emergency, contact local emergency services immediately. After a possible recent HIV exposure, contact a qualified local service promptly.
