Last updated: May 2026

1. Introduction

TextGlint ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Chrome Extension.

2. Data Collection and Usage

To provide our services, we process the following information:

• Account Information: If you sign in, we collect your basic profile information (email address and name) via Google Authentication to manage your subscription and sync your preferences.
• Highlighted Text: We only process the text you explicitly select and trigger an action on (e.g., summarize, explain). This text is sent securely to our AI models (e.g., via Google Cloud/Gemini/OpenAI APIs) to generate the requested output. We do not read or store your browsing history.
• Extension Usage Data: We store a history of your AI generations to allow you to view your past summaries. This history is synced securely via Firebase to your authenticated account.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data. We only share data with trusted third-party services necessary for the extension to function:

• AI Providers: The specific text you highlight is sent to our AI providers solely for generating the requested response.
• Payment Processors: We use Razorpay to process subscriptions. We do not store your full credit card details.
• Authentication and Database: We use Google Firebase for secure user authentication and data storage.

4. Chrome Web Store Compliance

The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

5. Data Security

We implement standard security practices to protect your data. All communication between the extension and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS.

6. Your Rights

You can request to view, export, or delete your account data by contacting us or using the sign-out and account management features within the extension.

7. Contact Us
