Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 15, 2026
PyBot Labs ("we", "us") builds a browser and app-based coding environment that lets students and hobbyists program a Raspberry Pi Pico W ("Beaver Board") using Blockly blocks or Python. This policy explains what information we collect across our website, web app, and iPad app, and how it's used.
Information we collect
- Account information: the email address and password you register with, or the name and email Google provides if you sign in with Google.
- Your projects: the Blockly workspace and/or Python code you save under your account, and your progress through tutorials, so you can pick up where you left off on any device.
- Preferences: settings like whether the optional AI Teacher feature is enabled for your account.
- Contact form submissions: if you email us through the contact form, we store your name, email, and message so we can reply, and briefly log your IP address to prevent spam.
Bluetooth & hardware
The app uses Bluetooth Low Energy only to talk directly to your own Beaver Board — to upload and run code, and to show output on the console. This connection is local, device-to-device: no personal data is transmitted over Bluetooth, and we don't collect anything about the Bluetooth devices near you.
How we use your information
We use the information above to run the service: authenticating you, saving and syncing your projects, tracking tutorial progress, and responding to support requests. We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising or third-party tracking. We don't run analytics or ad trackers on the app.
Third parties we use
- Google — optional "Sign in with Google", on the web app only.
- Resend — sends transactional email (verification, contact replies).
- Cloudflare — bot protection (Turnstile) on the contact form.
- Railway — hosts our database and backend infrastructure.
Each only receives what it needs to perform its function.
Children's privacy
PyBot Labs is built for K–12 classrooms as well as individual learners. We collect only what's needed to provide the coding environment (an email address for the account, and the code/projects a student saves) — no advertising, no behavioral profiling, and no sale of data, regardless of the user's age. Teachers or parents who want a student account reviewed or removed can contact us at the address below.
Data retention & deletion
We keep your account and project data as long as your account is active. To delete your account and associated data, email us and we'll process the request promptly.
