Privacy Policy for SEO-Agent

Effective Date: January 27, 2025

1. Introduction

SEO-Agent ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome Extension handles your data. We prioritize a "Zero-Server" architecture, meaning we do not store your personal data on our servers.

2. Data Collection and Usage

A. Local Storage (On Your Device)

We use chrome.storage.local to store your preferences locally on your browser. This data never leaves your device unless you choose to sync it via Chrome.

• User Preferences: Language settings (English/Korean) and Theme settings (Light/Dark).

• API Keys: If you choose to use the AI features, your Google Gemini API key is stored locally and securely.

B. Data We Do NOT Collect

• We do NOT collect personal identification information (PII).

• We do NOT track your browsing history.

• We do NOT use third-party analytics cookies or tracking pixels.

• We do NOT have a backend server to store user data.

3. AI Features and Data Transmission

SEO-Agent includes optional AI-powered features (e.g., keyword suggestions) that utilize the Google Gemini API.

• Voluntary Usage: These features are only active when you explicitly click the "AI Analysis" button.

• Direct Communication: When activated, your browser communicates directly with Google's API (generativelanguage.googleapis.com) using the API key you provided.

• Data Sent: Only the text content of the web page you are analyzing is sent to Google for processing.

• No Intermediary: This data goes directly from your browser to Google. We do not intercept, store, or view this data.

Please refer to Google's Privacy Policy for how they handle data sent to their APIs.

4. Permissions Usage

We request the minimum permissions necessary for the extension to function:

• activeTab: To read the metadata (title, meta tags) of the current page for SEO analysis.

• scripting: To inject the analysis script into the page you are viewing.

• storage: To save your settings and API key locally.

• sidePanel: To display the analysis results in the browser's side panel.

5. Third-Party Services

This extension may interact with the following third-party service only if enabled by the user:

• Google Gemini API: For generating SEO keyword suggestions.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
