This sounds like a good tool that would help ease the usage of adopting marimo for some of the tasks that people usually use colab for. It can be used for teaching and tutorials to share.

I just want to ask about Privacy Policy of the cloud version because I couldn't find it.

Thanks! Notebooks on molab are public (but undiscoverable, like public GitHub gists), and can be shared with links. This is described here: https://marimo.io/blog/announcing-molab.
Is there anything you are doing to prevent these notebooks from being indexed by Google/etc? Gists will show up in google search results if they've been linked from anywhere that google happens to find. The robots.txt just has 'Allow: /'.

I have no experience with Marimo so I guess I don't know the security model here.

I just turned off /notebooks in robots.txt

Our thoughts are the same as gists- Molab is built to share your work and give you a place to tinker. Please don't put your api keys in there

> I just turned off /notebooks in robots.txt

That doesn't actually stop pages being indexed.

If your notebooks need keys, use mo.ui.text(kind=“password”), similar to the example from Hugging Face: https://molab.marimo.io/notebooks/nb_jpcTRt2jckij9iujuZ6NuZ
