Privacy Policy
Learn about how the PicoClaw website handles access data, self-hosted deployment data, communication platform integrations, LLM APIs, and the boundaries of user control.
Who We Are
PicoClaw is an open-source, ultra-lightweight personal AI assistant project developed in Go. This website serves as a hub for PicoClaw's features, installation guides, performance benchmarks, documentation, and related open-source resources. PicoClaw is not a cloud-hosted chat service, nor is it an official product of Telegram, Discord, QQ, DingTalk, or any LLM service provider.
Information Collected by the Official Website
When you visit picoclaw.net or our test domains, our servers, security services, or hosting providers may record basic access logs, such as request timestamps, pages visited, browser types, IP addresses, error logs, and security events. This information is used to maintain website availability, troubleshoot issues, prevent abuse, and understand site traffic.
Cookies and Basic Preferences
This website may use essential cookies to save language settings, debugging access, or basic session preferences. Unless explicitly stated on a page, we do not require you to submit LLM API Keys, communication platform bot tokens, chat messages, configuration files, or private code through this website.
Data in Self-Hosted Deployments
If you self-host PicoClaw, your runtime data is controlled entirely by your own devices, servers, containers, file systems, and third-party accounts. This may include message inputs from platforms like Telegram, Discord, QQ, or DingTalk, as well as bot tokens, conversation logs, scheduled tasks, configuration files, local memory, LLM API Keys, and deployment logs.
Boundaries Between the Website and Deployment Environments
This self-hosted runtime data is not automatically sent to the PicoClaw website simply by visiting it. You are responsible for securing your deployment environment, access permissions, keys, backups, log retention policies, and the security of your API Keys.
Third-Party Services
PicoClaw can connect to LLM providers such as OpenRouter, Zhipu AI, Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, and Groq, and may interact with platforms like Telegram, Discord, QQ, DingTalk, GitHub, or various hosting and analytics services. When using these services, you must read and comply with the respective privacy policies and terms of service of those third parties.
User Control and Security Recommendations
Please do not submit API Keys, bot tokens, private configurations, container keys, business data, or sensitive logs to public issues, chat groups, or unprotected logs. We recommend using the principle of least privilege, isolated deployments, regular dependency updates, and restricting access to your PicoClaw instance to trusted users only.
Children's Privacy and Policy Updates
PicoClaw is intended for users capable of deploying and managing software themselves and is not directed at children. We may update this policy as the website, project features, or third-party dependencies evolve; updates will be reflected with a new date on this page.
