Privacy policy
Last updated: November 10, 2026
Draft. This policy is being reviewed by a lawyer before Speetaki opens to everyone.
Speetaki is a family board for a tablet on the wall and for grown-ups' phones. It's made by BigRun LLC ("we", "us"). This page says, in plain words, what we keep about your family, why, who helps us run Speetaki, and how you can see or delete it. Questions: [email protected].
The short version
- We keep what your family puts into Speetaki so the board can show it. That's all we use it for.
- No ads. We never sell your family's information, and we never use it to train AI.
- Kids don't have accounts. A grown-up adds them by first name.
- You can ask us to send you a copy, or to delete your family's board, at any time.
What we keep
- Grown-ups' sign-in: the email address each grown-up signs in with. We email a one-time code instead of using passwords.
- Your family's board: what you add to it, such as family members' first names, colors and any pictures you choose, chores and Pip Points, rewards, lists, groceries, meals and recipes, calendar events, countdowns, shout-outs on the Fridge, photos, and the family's Pip conversations.
- Where home is (if you tell us): an address or town, or the location your phone shares when you tap "Use where I am". We use it for the weather, drive times to events and your time zone.
- Google Calendar (if you connect it): the events on the calendars you choose, so the board can show them, and the events you add from Speetaki.
- Emails (if you set it up): the emails you forward to your family's Speetaki address, or that arrive in a school inbox you connect. Pip reads them to suggest events. A forwarded email is kept for 90 days so you can see the original; after that only the suggested events stay.
- Voice (when someone talks to Pip): the sound is turned into words and then thrown away; we don't keep recordings. The words and Pip's answers are kept in your family's Pip history, which grown-ups can see in Settings.
- Screens: the tablets and boards paired to your family, with a name you give them and when each was last used.
- Problem reports: when something breaks, an error report that says what went wrong and where. It never includes what your family typed.
- Membership (if you pay for Speetaki): you pay on Stripe's own page, and your card number and billing address go to Stripe, never to us. We keep only what we need to know your family is a member: Stripe's reference numbers for your family and your membership, whether it's paid up, when it renews, and whether it's set to end. We give Stripe the paying grown-up's sign-in email, so it can send the receipts.
- The waitlist: if you sign up on this website, your email address, to tell you when Speetaki opens.
Children
Speetaki is set up and run by parents and other grown-ups. Children use the board on the wall, but they don't have accounts, email addresses or passwords, and we don't ask them for information. A grown-up decides what to add about them (a first name is enough) and can change or remove it at any time. If you think a child has given us information without a parent, write to us and we'll delete it.
How we use it
- To run your family's board: show it, keep it in sync on your screens, and do what you ask (add an event, check off a chore, answer a question).
- To keep Speetaki working and safe: find and fix problems, and stop misuse.
- To write to you about your account or the service. We don't send marketing to families on the board without asking.
We don't sell or rent your information, we don't show ads, and we don't use your family's information to train AI models.
Who helps us run Speetaki
These companies handle information only to provide their part of Speetaki, under agreements that limit what they can do with it.
| Company | What for |
|---|---|
| Supabase | Sign-in, the database, and stored pictures |
| Render | Running Speetaki's servers |
| Anthropic (Claude) | Pip: answering questions, reading emails you send to Speetaki, screenshots and links to suggest events, and recipe ideas. Anthropic doesn't use information sent through its API to train its models. |
| Deepgram | Turning speech into words and Pip's words into speech. We ask Deepgram not to keep or learn from the audio. |
| Google Calendar and the school Gmail inbox, only if you connect them; Google Maps for addresses and drive times | |
| OpenWeather | The weather where home is |
| The Movie Database (TMDB) | Looking up movies for the family's movie list |
| Cloudflare | Receiving the emails you forward to your family's Speetaki address and passing them straight to Speetaki |
| Stripe | Taking payment for memberships, receipts, and the page where you change your card or cancel. Stripe's own privacy policy also covers what you type on its pages, which Stripe uses to process payments and prevent fraud. |
| Sentry | Error reports (without your family's information) |
| GitHub | Messages you send us with "Tell us something" in Settings, so we can track and fix them |
We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of a person. If BigRun LLC is ever sold or merged, this policy would still apply to your family's information.
Google user data
Speetaki's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use your Google Calendar and Gmail information only to show and add your family's events and to suggest events from school emails, never for ads, and people at BigRun read it only with your permission (for example, to help with a problem you report), for security, or when the law requires it.
How long we keep it
We keep your family's board as long as you use Speetaki. When you ask us to delete it, we delete it within 30 days, and our backups, which we keep for 30 days, roll off after that. Records of payments are the exception: Stripe and we keep them as long as tax and accounting laws require, even after a board is deleted. Signing out of Google in Settings stops Speetaki from reading your calendar or inbox right away.
Your choices
- See or change: almost everything is on the board or in Settings, and grown-ups can change or delete it there.
- Get a copy, or delete your family: email [email protected] from a grown-up's sign-in address.
- Your membership: change your card, get receipts or cancel in Settings → Membership → Manage billing.
- Stop a connection: sign out of Google, or stop forwarding emails to Speetaki, in Settings.
Depending on where you live, you may have other rights over your information. Write to us and we'll help.
Keeping it safe
Information travels encrypted. Each family's information is kept apart from every other family's, and only Speetaki's own server can reach the database. Grown-ups can set a passcode so children can't change settings or delete things. No system is perfect, so if something goes wrong that affects your family, we'll tell you.
Changes
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we'll tell grown-ups by email or on the board before it takes effect.
