Privacy Policy

AI Text Actions - Chrome Extension Last updated: November 26, 2025

Overview

AI Text Actions is a Chrome extension that allows you to process selected text using OpenAI's API. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how your data is handled.

Key Point

This extension does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to our servers. All data remains on your device or is sent directly to OpenAI when you use an action.

Data Collection

The extension stores the following data locally on your device:

  • OpenAI API Key: Your API key is stored locally in your browser's secure storage and is never shared with anyone except OpenAI for authentication.
  • Custom Actions: The actions you create (name, instruction, model) are stored locally in your browser.
  • Usage Logs: Optional activity logs (action name, timestamp, token usage, cost) are stored locally in IndexedDB for your reference. These logs never leave your device.

Data Transmission

When you use an AI action on selected text:

  • The selected text is sent directly to OpenAI's API servers for processing.
  • Your API key is used for authentication with OpenAI.
  • The processed text is returned and displayed in your browser.

Important

We do not have access to your API key, the text you process, or OpenAI's responses. All communication happens directly between your browser and OpenAI.
