Your data stays small.
- No tracking. No analytics, no advertising cookies, no third-party trackers.
- Camera and microphone data stay on your device. Pibot receives events and summaries, never video or audio recordings.
- Keys are stored only as hashes. Your owner key, device keys and session tokens can’t be read back from our database.
- Delete everything yourself, any time, with the button below.
What we store and why
| Data | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Devices you pair: name, model, health readings, apps, skills, events, chat with the machine, wallet address and limits, payment proposals | To run your machines from the website | Until you remove the device; events keep the latest 2,000 |
| Marketplace orders and quotes: company or workshop name, contact, quantities, prices, notes | To connect companies with assemblers | Until you delete your data |
| Assembly-network listings you publish | To show them publicly | Until you delete the listing |
| Google sign-in (optional): name, email, profile picture, saved progress | To keep your progress across browsers | Until you delete your data; sessions end after 90 days unused |
| A hash of your IP address that changes every day | To limit spam and abuse | Rate-limit counters are cleared after an hour |
Who processes it
- Cloudflare hosts the website, API and database.
- Google, only if you choose Google sign-in, confirms who you are.
- When you click a Buy link, the shop (for example The Pi Hut or Pimoroni) handles your purchase under its own privacy policy. Pibot checks stock on its servers, so the shop doesn’t learn about you until you visit it.
What your browser keeps
Your owner key, progress, build list and preferences are stored in your browser’s local storage, never sent anywhere except as needed to use Pibot. Clearing site data removes them.
Your rights
You can see your data on the Devices, Marketplace and account pages, and delete it with the button below. Under Swiss data-protection law (revDSG) and the EU GDPR you can also ask us for a copy, a correction or an explanation. Contact: [privacy contact to be added].
Delete my data
Removes the devices this browser controls with their events, chats and payment proposals, your marketplace orders and quotes, your votes and, if you’re signed in, your Google account record. Listings are deleted from the Assembly network page with their edit key. This can’t be undone.
