Session Data: When you create or join a coding session, we collect session IDs, timestamps, and participant counts to enable real-time collaboration.

Code Content: The code you write during sessions is temporarily stored in memory to enable real-time synchronization between participants. Session data is automatically deleted after 24 hours of inactivity.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Session code is only accessible to participants within the same session. We may share anonymized, aggregated analytics data with service providers to improve platform performance.
