Privacy Policy

- Cuebot has no analytics, telemetry or automatic crash reporting.
- Cuebot connects to a service (Twitch, YouTube, Kick, a voice or AI provider…) only to do what you set up, and sends it only what that job needs.
- A few lookups happen on their own and can be switched off: update checks, chat emotes and pronouns. They are listed below.
- Our games, including The Miki Komori Project, collect no data at all.
- This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics.

Who we are
Tech Daddy Digital makes Cuebot, a desktop app for streamers on Windows and Linux, and games such as The Miki Komori Project. “We” in this policy means Tech Daddy Digital. Contact us at [email protected].
Cuebot is software you run yourself. When it talks to Twitch, Google or any other service, it does so from your computer, on your behalf. None of that data passes through us.
What Cuebot keeps on your computer
Cuebot stores everything in its data folder: %APPDATA%\Cuebot on Windows, ~/.config/Cuebot on Linux (the Flatpak keeps it inside its own sandbox folder), or a folder you choose.
- Settings and your setup: actions, commands, timers, decks, variables and module settings.
- Sign-ins and keys: access tokens for the accounts you connect, and any API keys or webhook secrets you enter. These are stored in the data folder’s settings files without encryption, readable by anyone who can read your files. Protect your computer account, and treat the data folder and its backups as private.
- Information about your viewers (see Your viewers’ data).
- Logs: one log file per day in
logs/, kept until you delete them. Logs record what Cuebot did and occasionally contain a viewer’s user name. - Backups: a zip of the data folder on every start and before imports. The newest 10 are kept in
backups/. - Caches: chat emote lists and images, and models or tools you choose to download (for example a speech-recognition model or Python).
Chat messages and stream events are kept in memory while Cuebot runs (the last 500 of each) and are not written to disk, unless an action you build saves them.
Connections Cuebot makes on its own
These happen without you connecting an account. Each sends your IP address to the service, as any internet request does.
| What | Where | What is sent | Turn it off |
|---|---|---|---|
| Update check, once a day | GitHub (api.github.com) | Cuebot’s version number. No identifier. | Support › Updates › “Check on start” |
| Chat emotes | 7TV, BetterTTV, FrankerFaceZ, and Twitch’s and Kick’s image servers | Your channel’s ID once you connect a platform, so your channel’s emotes load; emote IDs when images load | Each provider can be switched off in Cuebot’s emote settings |
| Pronouns in chat | Alejo’s pronoun service (pronouns.alejo.io) | The Twitch user name of chatters, to show the pronouns they set there | Chat page › show pronouns |
Accounts you connect
When you sign in to a platform, Cuebot receives tokens from it and stores them on your computer. Release builds sign in through apps registered by Tech Daddy Digital (so you do not need your own developer app); the tokens still go only to your computer. Under Advanced you can use your own developer app instead.
- Twitch: chat, follows, subscriptions, bits, raids, channel-point redemptions and moderation, with the permissions you choose on the Twitch settings page. An optional bot account can send chat and whispers.
- YouTube: see Google and YouTube data.
- Kick: your account, channel, chat, rewards and moderation, through Kick’s API. Live chat is read from Kick’s public real-time service.
- Rumble: your Live Stream API address, and for sending chat a sign-in with your Rumble user name and password. The password goes only to Rumble, as a hash, and Cuebot does not store it; Cuebot keeps Rumble’s session cookie.
- Donation and tip services (StreamElements, Streamlabs, TipeeeStream, TreatStream, Pally.gg, DonorDrive): the token or key you enter, used to receive your tips and events.
Each platform’s own privacy policy covers what it does with your account.
Google and YouTube data
Cuebot uses YouTube API Services. When you connect YouTube, Cuebot asks Google for access to your YouTube account (youtube and youtube.force-ssl). It uses that access only to run the features you use: reading your live chat and broadcast details, sending chat messages, moderating chat, running polls and updating your stream’s title and details. Cuebot does not ask for your email address or contacts.
When you turn on Google Drive backups, Cuebot asks for the drive.file permission, which lets it see only the files it creates. It uploads its backup zips to a “Cuebot Backups” folder in your Drive, keeps the newest 10 there, and shows your Google account’s email address on the backups page so you know which account is connected. Backups contain your whole data folder, including the sign-ins of connected accounts, so they are as private as your Drive.
Data from Google stays on your computer (and in your own Drive for backups). Tech Daddy Digital does not receive it, sell it or use it for advertising. Cuebot’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
By using Cuebot’s YouTube features you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google’s Privacy Policy applies to what Google receives. You can remove Cuebot’s access at any time on your Google Account permissions page; signing out in Cuebot also revokes it.
Other services you choose
These are off until you set them up, and then send data only to the service you picked:
- Cloud voices (ElevenLabs, Microsoft Azure, Google, Amazon Polly, IBM Watson, Acapela, CereProc, TTS Monster, Uberduck): the text to be spoken, which can include chat messages and user names you have Cuebot read aloud. Windows voices and espeak-ng run on your computer.
- The setup assistant (Anthropic, OpenAI, xAI, Google, or an AI app you have installed such as Codex or Claude Code): your messages, and the results of the Cuebot tools the assistant uses to answer, which can include recent chat, user names and your settings. Nothing is sent until you send a message. AI apps you run through Cuebot follow their own vendor’s terms.
- Webhooks and the webhook relay: tips and purchases from Ko-fi, Patreon, Shopify, Fourthwall, Throne and similar services reach Cuebot through a relay you deploy to your own Cloudflare account. The relay holds undelivered events for at most 24 hours.
- Integrations you configure: OBS, Streamlabs Desktop and other stream apps, Elgato devices, Discord or IFTTT webhooks, HTTP requests and scripts in your actions. These send what you tell them to send.
- Downloads you start: Python from GitHub, Python packages from PyPI, speech-recognition models from Hugging Face.
Your viewers’ data
As a streamer you are responsible for your viewers’ data that Cuebot keeps for you. Cuebot stores on your computer, until you delete it:
- a list of chatters with their platform, user ID, names, roles, first and last seen time and message count (no message text);
- per-viewer values your actions keep, such as points and command counts;
- groups, quotes (with who said them) and per-viewer voice settings;
- end-of-stream credits (who followed, subscribed, tipped or raided), reset at the start of each stream.
Viewer information leaves your computer only through features you use: pronoun lookups (Twitch user names), cloud voices (text being read), the assistant (when it looks at chat), Drive backups and problem reports you choose to send.
Problem reports and crashes
If Cuebot crashes it writes a crash file in its data folder; nothing is sent. Support › Report a problem builds a report you can read and edit first. It sends nothing on its own: you can save it, copy it, or open it as an issue on Cuebot’s GitHub repository, where it becomes visible to whoever can see that repository. Reports remove passwords, tokens, keys, email addresses and your account names by default, but not viewer names that appear in log lines, so read the preview before you send it.
Cuebot’s local servers
Cuebot can run servers for stream decks, OBS docks, other apps and AI tools. They listen only on your own computer unless you allow your local network. The AI tools server (for the assistant and AI apps you connect) is on by default, on your computer only, and needs a key.
Our games
Our games, including The Miki Komori Project, do not collect, store or send any personal data. They have no accounts, analytics, advertising or tracking, and once installed they need no internet connection to play. Anything a game saves, such as your progress, stays on your device.
The store you get a game from (Steam, itch.io, Google Play or the App Store) handles your purchase, download and any reviews you post under its own privacy policy. Tech Daddy Digital may see the store’s aggregate statistics, such as download counts and review scores, but no information that identifies you.
This website and email
techdaddydigital.com is a static site hosted by Cloudflare. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics and loads nothing from other sites. Cloudflare processes the technical details of each visit (such as your IP address and browser) to deliver the site and protect it from attacks; see Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
If you email us, our email provider, Zoho Mail, handles the message. We use your email only to answer you and keep it only as long as needed for that.
Your choices and deleting data
- Stop a connection: sign out on the service’s page in Cuebot, or revoke Cuebot on the service itself: Twitch connections, Google Account permissions, or your Kick and other account settings.
- Delete your data: everything Cuebot keeps is in its data folder and backups. Delete those (and the “Cuebot Backups” folder in your Google Drive if you used Drive backups) to remove it all. To remove a single viewer, delete their entries from
users.jsonanduser-variables.jsonin the data folder while Cuebot is closed. - Data we hold about you: only emails you send us and GitHub issues you open. Ask us at [email protected] to see or delete them.
Children, changes and contact
Cuebot and this website are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. Our games collect no data from anyone, including children.
We will update this policy when Cuebot’s handling of data changes; the effective date above shows the current version, and material changes are noted in Cuebot’s release notes.
