BobCode

Privacy Policy

Last updated 25 August 2026

BobCode is an AI coding assistant that runs on your own computer. This policy describes what leaves your machine, what we keep, and for how long.

The part most people do not expect: when the assistant reads a file to answer you, the contents of that file are sent to the AI model along with your message — and are recorded with it. If a file holds something you would not paste into a chat, do not ask the assistant to read it.

What stays on your computer

BobCode runs locally. Your files, your projects, and your session history are stored on your own machine. We do not have a copy of your filesystem and cannot browse it.

What we receive

DataWhyKept for
Google account: email address, name, and Google's account identifier To sign you in and to show an administrator who you areUntil the account is deleted
Usage: model, token counts, cost, timestamps To meter your credit balanceUntil the account is deleted
Conversations: your messages, the model's replies, and any file contents or command output the assistant read while answering To understand what people ask for and improve the product30 days

Credentials are removed before storage

Before a conversation is stored, recognised secrets — API keys, private keys, access tokens — are replaced with [REDACTED]. This is a safety net, not a guarantee: it catches known patterns and cannot recognise every possible secret.

What we ask Google for

Signing in requests only openid, email and profile. BobCode cannot read your Gmail, Drive, Calendar, or any other Google data, and never asks for permission to.

Who else sees your data

Your messages are sent to DeepSeek, which provides the AI model, so that it can answer. Our own infrastructure runs on Google Cloud. We do not sell your data and we do not share it with anyone else.

Deletion

Conversation records delete themselves 30 days after they are created. To delete your account and everything attached to it, write to the address below and we will remove it.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that affects what we collect or how long we keep it, the date at the top changes and we tell signed-in users.
