Pebble

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 29, 2026

This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") explains how Pacific Interactive LLC ("Pebble," "Pebble Chat," "we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use our website at www.pebblechat.com, the Pebble Chat iOS app, and related services (together, the "Service"). Pacific Interactive LLC is the controller of the personal information described in this Policy.

1. Summary

• No accounts. We never ask for your name, email, phone number, or password.
• We don't save your chats. A conversation exists only in your app or browser while it is open. When you start a new chat, reload the page, or close the app, that conversation is permanently deleted. We do not keep a copy and cannot recover it.
• Your messages go to OpenAI. Each message is sent to our AI provider, OpenAI, so it can write a reply. We don't store your messages in a database or write them to our logs.
• Ads are non-personalized. We show ads from Google, but we ask Google to show only non-personalized ads. We don't request Apple's tracking permission and don't use your device's advertising identifier (IDFA).
• We don't sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

2. Information we process

• Your messages and AI replies. We receive the text of your current conversation, forward it to OpenAI, and stream the reply back to you. The conversation is held only in memory while the request is being handled. Because the whole conversation is sent with each new message, anything you typed earlier in the same chat is sent again.
• Place names and coordinates. If you ask about the weather, the AI may convert a place you mention into approximate coordinates, which are sent to Open-Meteo to look up the forecast. We never access your device's GPS or location services.
• Technical data. Like any website, our servers receive your IP address, browser or device type, the page requested, and the time of the request. We hold your IP address in memory for up to 24 hours to enforce rate limits and prevent abuse. Our hosting provider also keeps standard request logs (see Section 9).
• Data stored on your device. We store a few settings in your browser or app storage: your selected chat model, light/dark theme, a record of which version of these documents you agreed to, a sidebar preference, and any text you have typed but not yet sent (so a draft isn't lost if the page reloads). This data stays on your device and is not sent to us.
• Advertising data. When ads are shown, Google receives information such as your IP address, device and browser type, general location derived from your IP address, and how you interact with the ad. Google uses this for non-personalized ads, which means frequency capping, measurement, fraud prevention, and contextual ads.

We do not collect your name, email address, contacts, photos, precise location, or device advertising identifier. We do not use analytics or tracking tools of our own.

3. How and why we use information

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the legal bases we rely on are shown in brackets.

• To provide the Service, including sending your messages to OpenAI and returning replies [performance of our contract with you].
• To keep the Service secure and available, including rate limiting and preventing abuse, fraud, and violations of our Terms [legitimate interests].
• To show ads that fund the free Service [legitimate interests; and, where required by law, your consent, which you give or refuse through Google's consent message].
• To comply with the law and respond to lawful requests [legal obligation].

We do not use your conversations to train AI models, and we do not use them to build a profile of you.

4. Chats are not saved

Pebble has no chat history. Your conversation lives only in the open app or browser tab. Starting a new chat, reloading, closing the tab, or closing the app permanently deletes it from your device. We do not keep a server-side copy, so we cannot restore, look up, or export past conversations for you or for anyone else. If you want to keep something, copy or share it before you leave the chat.

5. Children

The Service is for a general audience aged 13 and older. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, contact us at the address in Section 14. Because we don't store chats, there is usually nothing on our side to delete, but we will act promptly on any information we do hold. We do not sell or share the personal information of anyone, including users under 16.

6. Who we share information with

We share information only with the service providers below, and only as needed to run the Service:

• OpenAI, L.L.C. processes your messages to generate replies and images. Under OpenAI's API terms, data sent through its API is not used to train its models by default. OpenAI may keep it for up to 30 days to monitor for abuse, unless a longer period is required by law. See https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy.
• Vercel Inc. hosts the website and servers and keeps standard request logs. See https://vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
• Google LLC (AdSense on the web, AdMob in the iOS app) serves non-personalized ads and, in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, shows the consent message. See https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
• Open-Meteo receives approximate coordinates when you ask about the weather. See https://open-meteo.com/en/terms.
• Apple Inc. distributes the iOS app and may collect App Store and device data under its own privacy policy.

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect the rights, property, or safety of Pebble, our users, or others, or as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Any successor would remain bound by this Policy for information collected under it. When you use a share or copy button, the content goes wherever you choose to send it.

7. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live (for example California, other U.S. states with privacy laws, the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland), you may have the right to:

• find out whether we hold personal information about you, and get a copy of it;
• have it corrected or deleted;
• object to or restrict certain processing, and withdraw consent;
• receive your data in a portable format;
• opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, targeted advertising, and profiling; and
• appeal our decision on a request, or complain to your local data protection authority or state attorney general.

We do not sell personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising, and we have not done so in the past 12 months. We honor Global Privacy Control and similar browser opt-out signals. We will not treat you differently for exercising any of these rights.

To make a request, email us at the address in Section 14. We have no accounts, so we may ask for details (such as the approximate date, time, and IP address of your use) to find any information that relates to you. We will respond within the time required by law. You may use an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.

California "Shine the Light" (Civil Code § 1798.83): we do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

8. Cookies, local storage, and ads

We use a small number of functional cookies and local-storage entries (listed in Section 2) that are needed for the Service to work. We do not use them for advertising. Google's ad scripts may set their own cookies or use similar technologies to deliver, limit, and measure non-personalized ads and to prevent fraud. In the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, Google's consent message asks for your choice before non-essential cookies are used. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

iOS app: we do not ask for App Tracking Transparency permission, do not access your IDFA, and do not track you across other companies' apps or websites. If Google's consent message applies to you, you can change your choice at any time using the "Ad privacy choices" link at the bottom of this page.

9. How long we keep information

• Conversations: not kept by us. They are held in memory only while a reply is generated. OpenAI may keep them for up to 30 days, as described in Section 6.
• IP addresses used for rate limiting: held in memory for up to 24 hours.
• Hosting request logs: kept for the period set by our hosting provider, generally no more than 30 days.
• Data stored on your device: stays until you clear your browser or app data, or delete the app.

10. International transfers

Pebble is operated from the United States, and our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. When personal information from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland is transferred, we rely on our providers' legal safeguards, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (including its UK and Swiss extensions).

11. Security

All traffic to and from the Service is encrypted in transit using TLS, and we collect as little as possible so there is little to protect. No system is perfectly secure, though. Please do not send sensitive information such as passwords, financial or health details, or government ID numbers to Pebble or any other AI chatbot.

12. Sensitive information

We do not ask for sensitive personal information, and we do not use anything you choose to type to infer characteristics about you. If you include such information in a message, it is used only to generate a reply, as described above.

13. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy. The "Last updated" date at the top shows when it last changed. If we make a material change, we will ask you to review and agree to the updated Policy in the app before you continue using the Service.
