Privacy policy

Last updated: Nov 9, 2026

Who we are

TgZoo (tgzoo.com) is a catalog of Telegram bots and mini apps. This policy explains what we collect, why, and what you can do about it.

What we collect

  • Telegram sign-in. When you log in with Telegram we receive your Telegram user id, first/last name, username and profile photo URL. We use them to create your account and show who submitted a bot.
  • Telegram messages (optional). If you turn on status messages in your account, our Telegram bot messages you about your submissions only: check results, broken links, unpublishing notices. Send /stop to the bot or press “Turn off” to stop them. We do not collect email addresses.
  • Bots you submit. The username, texts you write and the public information Telegram shows about the bot.
  • Visit statistics. Our own analytics counts page views, the referring site, campaign tags (utm_*), device type and clicks on “Open in Telegram”. A visitor is identified by a hash of the IP address and browser that changes every day; we never store the IP address itself and set no tracking cookies. We do not use Google Analytics or advertising trackers.
  • Support chat. Questions you send to our assistant (on the site or in Telegram) are stored to improve answers.

Cookies and browser storage

We use only what the site needs to work: a session cookie, a security (XSRF) cookie, a “remember me” cookie after you sign in, and a few local/session storage keys for your settings (cookie notice, 18+ confirmation, support chat history). The cookie button in the corner of every page lists each of them. None are used for advertising.

Service providers

  • Hosting (our VPS provider) — runs the site and database.
  • Hetzner and DigitalOcean object storage — encrypted database backups.
  • AI providers (Anthropic, Google, xAI and others) — receive only bot information to write and check descriptions, never your personal data.
  • Telegram — sign-in and bot information.

Affiliate links

“Open in Telegram” buttons may use a bot’s Telegram affiliate (partner) link. If you start using a bot through it, we may earn a commission from the bot owner. It costs you nothing.

How long we keep data

Account data is kept while your account exists. Raw visit statistics are deleted after about 13 months. Backups are rotated automatically.

Your rights

You can edit or delete your submissions at any time in your account. To delete your account, export your data or ask a question, contact us via the contact page.
