Privacy Policy
Our Privacy Commitment (BYOK Model)
ChromePilot operates on a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model. Your AI interactions — screenshots, webpage content, commands, and your Gemini API key — are processed directly between your browser and Google Gemini, and are never sent to or stored on our servers. When you sign in to unlock advanced features, we do store limited account information to manage your license, as described below.
Basic features are free to use without signing in. Advanced features require a one-time $29 lifetime license and your own Gemini API key. Either way, your AI communication goes directly to the Gemini model without any intermediary data collection.
How Your Information Is Handled
Account Information & License
When you sign in with Google to unlock advanced features, we receive and store your email address, name, and profile picture, along with your license status and basic usage statistics (such as how many times you have opened the extension). This information is used solely to authenticate you and manage your lifetime license — we never sell it or share it for advertising. A signed authentication token is stored in your browser to keep you signed in. Payments are handled by our payment provider; we do not receive or store your card details.
Gemini API Key
You must provide your own Gemini API key from Google. This key is stored exclusively in your browser's local storage and is never sent to our servers. It is used only to authenticate your requests directly with Google Gemini.
Connectors
You can add connectors to various services (such as Gmail, GitHub, Google Sheets, Google Drive, and Google Docs) via OAuth authentication. These connections are established directly between your browser and the respective services. No data is sent to our servers - your communication with these services remains private and direct, with no third-party intermediary that could breach your data.
Webpage Content and Screenshots
To understand your commands, the extension captures a screenshot of the active webpage. This image is sent directly to Google Gemini's API to determine the appropriate action. This data is not seen or stored by us.
Text and Voice Commands
Your typed or spoken commands are sent to Google Gemini to be interpreted. Voice data is processed for transcription and is not stored by the extension.
Data Security and Sharing
We do not sell your data or share it with third parties for advertising. The limited account information we store is used only to operate the service and manage your license. Your AI content (screenshots, commands) is processed by Google Gemini and is subject to their privacy policy and security practices, which you are responsible for reviewing.
Your Rights
You have full control over your data. You can clear your API key or sign out from the extension's settings at any time, and uninstall the extension to remove all locally stored data. To request deletion of the account information associated with your sign-in, contact us at the email below.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our extension. We will notify you by updating the "Last updated" date on this page.
