Privacy policy
Last updated: October 18, 2026
This policy explains what Habibi bot (“Habibi bot”, “we”, “us”) collects when you use habibibot.co, your dashboard and your bot on Telegram, why, who helps us process it, and the choices you have. “You” means the person who creates an account and whose texting style the bot learns. “Your person” means the one person you invite to talk to your bot.
What we collect
From you
- Account details: your email address, a scrambled (hashed) version of your password, or your Google account ID and email if you sign in with Google, plus the names and timezones you enter during setup.
- Your chat export: the WhatsApp chat you upload: the messages between you and your person, the names in it and when each message was sent. We read the text of the chat; we don’t import photos, videos or voice notes from it.
- What you set up: your bot’s personality, its memories, the texts it sends first, and your settings, including anything you edit later.
- Billing details: payments are handled by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number. We keep your Stripe customer and subscription IDs, your plan, payment status, and a card fingerprint Stripe gives us so each card gets one free trial.
From your person
- Their Telegram account ID, first and last name and username, as Telegram shares them with bots.
- The messages, photos and stickers they send your bot, and your bot’s replies.
Automatically
- How much AI processing your bot uses (counted in tokens), so we can run your plan’s monthly allowance.
- A record of the emails we send you (for example, your welcome email or a payment receipt) so each one goes out once.
- Basic server logs (such as IP address and request time) used for security and to fix problems.
- One cookie that keeps you logged in to your dashboard. The website doesn’t use advertising or tracking cookies.
How we use it
- To build your bot: the AI reads your chat export to write your bot’s personality, its starting memories and a summary of your story so far, which you review before anything is sent.
- To run your bot: to reply to your person, send the texts you schedule, remember new things, and show you every conversation in your dashboard.
- To bill you, apply your plan’s allowance and send account emails (welcome, password reset, trial and usage notices, payment problems).
- To keep the service secure, prevent abuse and fix problems.
- To answer you when you contact us.
We don’t sell your data, we don’t use it for advertising, and we don’t use your chats to train AI models.
Who helps us
We use a small number of providers to run Habibi bot. They only get what they need to do their job:
| Provider | What for | What they process |
|---|---|---|
| Anthropic | The AI (Claude) that writes your bot’s personality, replies and memories | Chat content, photos your person sends, your bot’s instructions and memories |
| Telegram | Delivering messages between your bot and your person | Messages in that chat, your person’s Telegram profile |
| Stripe | Payments and subscriptions | Your email, card and billing details |
| Brevo | Sending account emails | Your email address and the email’s content |
| Railway | Hosting our servers and database | Everything stored by the service |
| Optional “Sign in with Google” | Your Google account ID, name and email |
Under Anthropic’s commercial terms, data sent through its API isn’t used to train its models. We may also share information if the law requires it, to protect someone’s safety, or as part of a sale or merger of the business, in which case this policy keeps applying to your data.
Your person’s privacy
Your chat export contains your person’s messages too, and your bot talks with them. By using Habibi bot you confirm that you have their permission to upload your chat and to invite them, and that they know they are talking to an AI version of you (your bot also tells them so). Your person can stop at any time by blocking the bot in Telegram, and can ask us to delete their messages by emailing hello@habibibot.co.
How long we keep it
We keep your data while your account is open. From your dashboard you can delete conversations, memories and your bot’s whole history at any time (Settings → Reset everything). To close your account and delete all of its data, email us from your account’s address; we delete it within 30 days. We keep billing records for as long as tax and accounting law requires.
Security
Everything travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Passwords are stored hashed, never in plain text. Access to production data is limited to the people who run the service and is used only to operate it, keep it safe, or help you when you ask. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data, and we’ll tell you if a breach affects you.
Where your data is processed
Our providers run servers in the United States, the European Union and other countries, so your data may be processed outside the country you live in. Where the law requires it, we rely on standard contractual protections for these transfers.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example in the EU, UK or California), you have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to complain to your data protection authority. You can do much of this yourself in your dashboard (read and export conversations, edit or delete memories, reset everything). For anything else, email hello@habibibot.co and we’ll reply within 30 days.
Age
Habibi bot is for people aged 18 and over. Don’t create an account, or invite someone, who is under 18.
Changes
If we change this policy, we’ll update the date at the top, and if the change is significant we’ll email you before it takes effect.

Email hello@habibibot.co with any question about your data or this policy.
