Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 31, 2025
1. Introduction
At ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber, protecting your privacy is our priority. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you install and use the ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber browser extension.
2. Scope of This Policy
This policy applies solely to information obtained through your use of the ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber extensions for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. It does not cover any other applications or services.
3. Business Model
ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber is a free to use extension with the ability to pay for more serious users. We do not sell, rent, or monetize your data.
4. Information We Collect
4.1 User-Provided Feedback
- Bug Reports & Feedback: When you submit feedback through the extension's form, we collect the content of your message and your email address (if provided). This information is used only to troubleshoot and improve ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber.
4.2 Local Storage Data
We use your browser's extension storage API to store:
- Authentication State (isAuthenticated boolean)
- Overlay State (open/closed flag per origin: chat.openai.com or chat.com)
- Announcement IDs (to suppress already-seen notifications)
No other data is stored locally or transmitted elsewhere.
5. How We Use Your Information
- Improve the Extension: We process your feedback to fix bugs and enhance features.
- Maintain User Experience: Local storage flags enable seamless overlay behavior and announcement management across sessions.
6. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not share your feedback or local-storage data with third parties, except to comply with legal obligations or to protect the rights, property, or safety of ChatGPT Reader & Transcriber, its users, or others.
7. Data Security
- Feedback Storage: Submitted feedback is stored securely on a password-protected admin interface that is not publicly indexed or discoverable.
- Local Storage Security: All browser-storage data remains on your device and is never sent to external servers (aside from feedback submissions).
- Built-in Extension Analytics: We rely on your browser's native extension analytics (which are given to all extension developers) and do not include any additional analytics, crash-reporting, or telemetry libraries.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access & Portability: Request a copy of the feedback you've submitted.
- Rectification: Ask us to correct any inaccurate feedback records.
- Erasure: Request that we delete your submitted feedback.
- Restrict or Object: Limit or object to our processing of your feedback.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us (see Section 10).
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll post the new policy here with a revised Effective Date. Please review this page periodically.
