ByteBell Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 15, 2026

Our Core Privacy Principle

We cannot see your code. Period.

ByteBell is an MCP server that connects your AI coding tools to a pre-indexed knowledge graph of your codebase. Your source code is indexed into graph representations — we do not store, access, or have visibility into your raw source code. Because we architecturally cannot see your code, we cannot use it for anything — including training or improving AI models.

We Do NOT Use Your Data to Train or Distill AI Models

ByteBell does not use customer data to retrain, fine-tune, or distill AI models — because we physically cannot. We never see your code, your queries, or the AI responses generated by your coding tools. The MCP protocol means your AI tool (Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, etc.) communicates with ByteBell's knowledge graph directly. We serve pre-indexed context; we do not intercept, log, or store the conversations between you and your AI assistant.

What We Store on Our Servers

The only information stored on ByteBell's servers is:

  • MCP tokens — authentication tokens that allow your AI tools to connect to your ByteBell knowledge graph
  • Usage metrics — how many MCP queries your team makes, for billing and rate limiting purposes
  • Server logs — standard application logs used exclusively to monitor for bugs, errors, and service health

That's it. No code. No queries. No AI conversations. No personal browsing data.

Knowledge Graph Data

When you connect your repositories, ByteBell builds a knowledge graph that captures structural relationships — dependency maps, API contract connections, service relationships, and file-level metadata. This graph is:

  • Stored in your isolated environment (cloud-hosted, your VPC, or on-premises depending on your plan)
  • Accessible only via your authenticated MCP tokens
  • Deletable at any time — disconnect your repos and the graph is destroyed

Account Information

When you create a ByteBell account, we collect:

  • Email address
  • Name
  • Company/organization name

This information is used solely for account management, billing, and support communication.

Data Sharing

We do NOT:

  • Sell your data to third parties
  • Use your data to train, retrain, or distill any AI models
  • Share your code, queries, or usage patterns with anyone
  • Use your data for advertising or marketing purposes
  • Provide any third party access to your knowledge graph

Security

  • All data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
  • MCP token authentication for all API access
  • Permission inheritance — ByteBell respects your existing GitHub/GitLab repo-level permissions
  • Isolated tenant environments — your data is never co-mingled with other customers
  • On-premises and VPC deployment options for maximum control

Your Rights

You can:

  • Disconnect repositories and delete your knowledge graph at any time
  • Delete your account and all associated data
  • Export your usage data
  • Request a full data audit by emailing: saurav@bytebell.ai
