Privacy Policy
Draft · last updated June 2026
Text to Chip is run from Milano, Italy. This page explains what data the app handles. The short version: there are no accounts, and your work lives in your own browser.
1. No account, browser-local storage
You don't sign up. Your programs, files and settings are stored in your browser (localStorage) on your device — we don't have them on our servers and can't read them.
2. The AI assistant
When you ask the assistant to generate or edit code, your prompt, the current BASIC program and your chosen language are sent to our server, which forwards them to our LLM provider (OpenAI) to produce a reply. They are used only to answer you, not to train models. Our server applies a per-IP rate limit to prevent abuse.
3. Connecting a real board (Web Serial)
When you connect an ESP32/board over Web Serial, the communication happens locally between your browser and the board. That data does not pass through our servers.
4. Optional cloud save
Saving programs to a server database is optional and off by default. If it is ever enabled for you, the programs you explicitly save would be stored on our server.
5. Cookies
We use one functional cookie (NEXT_LOCALE) to remember your language. No advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
6. Your rights (GDPR)
You can clear your browser storage at any time to remove all local data. For any request about data we process via the AI backend, contact us at [email protected].
7. Changes
We may update this policy as the product evolves; the date above reflects the latest revision.
