Raspberry Pi Privacy Policy

Last updated 9 June 2026

Raspberry Pi Ltd (“Raspberry Pi”, “RPL”, “we” or “us”) develops, manufactures and sells high-quality, low-cost computers, silicon products, and accessories worldwide. We also operate a retail store in Cambridge, the online Raspberry Pi Press store, the online Product Information Portal, and the Raspberry Pi Connect remote access service Raspberry Pi Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc. 

This privacy policy will explain how our organisation uses the personal data we collect from you when you use our website, interact with our digital tools (including our online customer support and technical documentation chatbots and Raspberry Pi Connect), visit our stores or offices, or engage with us as a supplier or contractor.

Raspberry Pi may also receive your data indirectly from the following sources:

How will we use your data?

Raspberry Pi collects your data so that we can:

The lawful basis for processing your data as set out above may include:

Who do we share your data with?

Raspberry Pi will not share your data with any companies so that they may offer you their products and services. When Raspberry Pi processes your order, it may send your data to, and also use the resulting information from, credit reference agencies to prevent fraudulent purchases. As the information we collect about you will be stored on our IT infrastructure, it may also be shared with the data processors who provide us with email, relationship management, anonymous analytics, document management, customer support and documentation chatbot software, cloud infrastructure relay routing, and storage services. When you use our online enquiry or technical documentation chatbot, your queries are processed via secure third-party AI platform service providers (e.g. Inkeep) to generate responses. These services employ automated privacy filters designed to detect and redact Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from your inputs before processing. Furthermore, these providers are contractually prohibited from utilising your inputs or conversational history to train their public machine learning models. Where these third parties are not in the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA), we make sure that appropriate legal safeguards are in place (such as Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or recognised adequacy frameworks) to ensure your data remains securely protected.

How do we store your data and how long do we keep it for?

Raspberry Pi securely stores your data with the utmost care and takes all necessary measures to protect it. We also understand that delete means delete. Raspberry Pi will keep your data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Chatbot conversation logs and technical queries are retained securely within our partner platforms for the duration of our service relationship with those providers, solely to allow us to analyse common technical support trends and improve our documentation and service quality. Raspberry Pi Connect session metadata may be stored for operational continuity and security auditing.

At the end of the appropriate retention period, your data will be deleted completely. By law we have to keep basic information about our customers and suppliers for six years after they cease being customers or partners for tax and legal compliance purposes. In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data; please see below for further information. 

CCTV footage recorded at our retail store or corporate offices is automatically overwritten on a rolling basis, typically within 30 days, unless required for the investigation of a specific security incident.

Marketing

Raspberry Pi would like to send you information about products and services of ours that we think you might like. If you have agreed to receive marketing, you may always opt out later. You can opt out of any marketing sent to you by us (or on our behalf) via email at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link provided at the bottom of that specific email. Alternatively, if you wish to be globally excluded from all marketing contact across all Raspberry Pi Ltd services and channels, please notify us at [email protected].
