Privacy Policy
We don't want your data. Seriously. Here's what that means in practice.
The big thing: Pebble is self-hosted. Your content stays on your server. We never see it, never store it, never touch it.
Pebble Software
Pebble doesn't phone home. Once it's on your server:
- No usage tracking
- No analytics sent to us
- No internet connection required for editing
- No user behavior monitoring
Your data is yours. Period.
Update Checks
Pebble can check for updates from hellopebble.io. This is opt-in and happens when you visit the Control Panel. During an update check, we receive:
- Version: Your current Pebble version
- Tier: Whether you're using Core or Pro
- Domain: Your website's domain (from the request)
- License hash: For Pro users, a one-way hash to verify license status
We use this to show you if updates are available and to understand how Pebble is being used (version adoption, Pro vs Core distribution). We don't collect any personal information, page content, or usage patterns.
You can disable update checks entirely by adding this to your config.php:
define('PEBBLE_DISABLE_UPDATE_CHECK', true);
Our Website
When you visit hellopebble.io, we keep it minimal:
- Analytics: Basic page views, anonymized
- Downloads: We count them, that's it
- Cookies: Just for dark mode preference
No ads. No tracking pixels. No creepy stuff.
Newsletter
If you sign up for updates:
- We store your email to send you news
- We never sell or share it
- Unsubscribe anytime, one click
Third-Party Stuff
We use a few external services:
- GitHub: Hosts our releases
- Google Fonts: For the typography
They have their own privacy policies.
Your Rights
You can always:
- Ask what data we have (probably nothing)
- Ask us to delete it
- Unsubscribe from emails
