# What the Serve Gen 3 knows about you

Made by Serve Robotics. 6 findings on record, 6 verified against primary sources. Every line is checked; a maker's claim is labeled as a claim, and we say so when nothing is on record.

## Bystander recording

Serve Gen3 robots continuously record video from robot-mounted cameras and audio for environmental monitoring during sidewalk operations, capturing pedestrians and their conversations; the company states it does not collect unnecessary personal details, only what is needed to navigate safely.

## Data deletion control

Under CCPA rights, users may request deletion of certain personal information Serve Robotics holds about them, but this applies only to data-controller-collected information, not service-provider or public-space data; no mechanism exists for bystanders to request deletion of their captured imagery or audio.
