Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 2022

Thank you for using our textbee.dev SMS Gateway Platform (“Platform”). This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you about how we collect, use, and disclose information when you use our Platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. By using our Platform, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Personal Information:

We may collect the following types of personal information from you when you use our Platform:

  • Your name
  • Contact information (such as email address and phone number)
  • Device information (such as device ID, model, and operating system)
  • SMS content and metadata

2. Analytics and Cookies

Updated September 2026. This section describes the hosted service at textbee.dev and app.textbee.dev only. textbee is open source, and a self-hosted instance loads none of the services below and sends no analytics data anywhere unless the operator configures it.

2.1 Third party analytics and advertising

On the hosted service we use:

  • Google Analytics, for page views and aggregate traffic reporting. We do not send your email address or account id to Google Analytics.
  • Microsoft Clarity, for session analytics that help us find usability problems. When you are signed in, your email address is used to label the session so we can connect it to a support request.
  • Vercel Analytics, for privacy-preserving traffic counts on the pages we host with Vercel.
  • Meta pixel and Meta Conversions API, to measure which adverts lead to signups and subscriptions. When you create an account or start a subscription, our server sends Meta an event containing a one-way hashed version of your email address and account id. Meta cannot read the original values from the hash.
  • X (Twitter) pixel, for the same advertising measurement.

2.2 Our own attribution cookie

We set a first-party cookie named tb_attr on textbee.dev for up to 90 days. It records how you first reached the site and how you most recently reached it: campaign parameters in the link you followed, the website that referred you, the page you landed on, and any advertising click identifier in the address. It holds no name, email address, or account id. When you create an account we store that value with your account so we can tell which channels bring people to textbee.

2.3 Your choices

You can block or delete these cookies in your browser settings, and browser tracking protection or an ad blocker will stop the third party scripts above from loading. The Platform works normally either way. Deleting your account removes the attribution data we hold with it.
