UchiSamBot (Study Helper) · Last updated: 15 October 2026

UchiSamBot (Study Helper) is a Telegram bot that helps school students understand their homework: it breaks tasks down step by step, explains topics in simple language, checks solutions, and makes revision notes. This policy explains what data the bot handles and how. It covers the bot (t.me/UchiSamBot) and its website (kerio-byte.github.io/uchisambot). In this policy, "we" means the team operating UchiSamBot.

1. What we collect

• Your Telegram user ID (the numeric identifier Telegram provides to bots) and your interface language (Russian or English).
• The content you send to the bot: task texts, questions, and photos of tasks.
• Technical records about processing: task status, timestamps, and processing details (which model handled the task, how many tokens it used).
• Purchase records: which breakdown pack you bought, its price in Telegram Stars, and Telegram's payment charge ID. We never receive your card or bank details — payments are processed by Telegram.
• Referral data: which user invited which (user IDs only), so referral bonuses can be credited.

We do not ask for or store your name, phone number, email address, postal address, contacts, or location. The bot does not read your other chats. The only exception is our website contact form: if you use it, we receive the email address and the message you provide — we use them only to reply to you, and we delete them on request.

2. Why we process it

• To run the service: generate breakdowns, explanations, solution checks, and revision notes; keep track of free and paid breakdown balances; credit referral bonuses.
• To support you: answer payment questions and process refunds.
• To prevent abuse and keep the service reliable.
• To improve quality using aggregated, de-identified statistics (for example, how many tasks were solved in total).

3. Where your data is processed

The bot runs on our own server in the European Union (Finland). Currently, all AI processing that generates the explanations runs on our own infrastructure. Your content is not sent to third-party AI services and is not used to train third-party models.

4. Sharing

We do not sell your data and do not share it for advertising. Data is disclosed only to: (a) Telegram — the platform the bot runs on and the payment processor; (b) competent authorities, where required by law.

5. Storage and deletion

Your data is stored on our server and kept for as long as needed to operate the service: accounting of free and paid breakdowns, support, and quality improvement. You can ask us to delete your data at any time — write to us, and we will delete it and confirm. Parents and guardians can make this request on behalf of their children.

Depending on your country, you may also have the right to access or correct your personal data — use the Help button in the bot or the contact form on our website and we will help.

6. Children

The bot is designed for school students. We recommend that younger students use it with a parent's knowledge, and parents can reach us via the Help button in the bot or the contact form on our website at any time.

7. Website

Our website is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub may keep standard technical logs (such as IP addresses) under its own privacy statement. If you send us a message through the contact form, the form is processed by Web3Forms (web3forms.com), which forwards your email address and message to us. We use them only to reply to you; you can ask us to delete them at any time (see section 5).

8. Changes

We may update this policy as the service evolves. The current version is always available on this page.

9. Contact

Use the Help button inside the bot or the contact form on our website — we respond there and by email.
