Privacy Policy
Last updated: 14 November 2026
YourTechBuddy (“we”, “us”) runs yourtechbuddy101.com, a free site with a code playground and video courses. This policy explains what we collect and why. We keep it to the minimum needed to run the site.
What we collect
- If you sign in with Google: your name, email address and profile picture, as shared by Google. We do not get your Google password or access to anything else in your Google account.
- Course progress: which lessons you have marked complete, so you can continue where you left off on any device.
- Code you write in the Playground is stored only in your own browser. If you run a C, C++, Java, Go or Rust program, the code and input are sent to Wandbox to compile and run it. JavaScript and Python run entirely in your browser.
You can use the Playground and watch courses without signing in. In that case, progress is saved only in your browser and nothing is sent to us.
How we use it
- To sign you in and show your courses and progress.
- To let administrators manage course content.
We do not sell your data, show ads, or share your information with anyone except the service providers below, who host the site for us.
Service providers
- Google — sign-in (Google Identity Services).
- Cloudflare — hosts our API and the database that stores accounts and progress.
- GitHub Pages — hosts the website files.
- YouTube — course videos are embedded from YouTube in privacy-enhanced mode. When you play a video, YouTube's own privacy policy applies.
Cookies and storage
We use your browser's local storage to keep you signed in and to remember your progress and playground code. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
Your choices
- Sign out at any time from the account menu.
- Ask us to delete your account and progress by emailing the address below. We will do it within 30 days.
- You can also remove the site's access from your Google account settings.
Children
The site is meant for learners aged 13 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page.
