BrowserBot is a browser extension that provides AI-powered browsing assistance, webpage analysis, tab management, bookmark organization, and developer tools.
This Privacy Policy explains what information BrowserBot accesses and processes, how that information is stored and used, and when it may be shared with third-party services.
BrowserBot does not operate its own backend server to collect or store users' personal information. However, certain features process information locally and may transmit information to AI providers selected by the user.
Depending on which features you use, BrowserBot may access or process the following information:
A. Webpage and browsing information
Text and content extracted from the current webpage.
Content from other browser tabs when explicitly attached by the user.
Text selected by the user on a webpage.
Page titles and URLs.
Browsing history from the previous 24 hours, only when the user enables the optional History permission and invokes the /history feature.
B. User-provided information
Questions, prompts, instructions, and messages entered into BrowserBot.
Chat conversations and AI-generated responses.
Information voluntarily included in prompts or attached page content.
C. Developer tools information
When the user uses the AI Debugger, BrowserBot can access debugging information such as:
Network request and response metadata (HAR data).
Console messages and errors.
DOM elements and page information.
Web performance metrics.
Selected element inspection information.
Sensitive values in captured network data are subject to automatic redaction where supported.
D. Extension settings and preferences
Selected AI provider and model.
User-configured API keys and endpoint settings.
Custom prompts and preferences.
Theme and interface settings.
Chat conversations and session information.
Optional long-term memory entries, when enabled.
Information accessed by BrowserBot is used exclusively to provide the extension's functionality, including:
Answering questions about webpages.
Summarizing and analyzing webpage content.
Processing user prompts and generating AI responses.
Organizing browser tabs and bookmarks.
Providing browsing-history summaries when requested.
Analyzing browser debugging and performance information.
Saving user preferences and maintaining chat sessions.
Providing optional personalized responses through the opt-in Memory feature.
BrowserBot does not use this information for advertising, behavioral profiling, selling personal information, or building advertising profiles.
BrowserBot does not operate an independent cloud database or backend server for storing user information.
Information needed for extension functionality is stored using browser-managed storage mechanisms, including Chrome Storage Local and Session Storage.
Locally stored information may include:
Extension settings and preferences.
Chat conversations and session data.
Configured API keys and provider settings.
Custom prompts.
Optional long-term memory entries.
The extension does not independently transmit this locally stored information to its developer.
Users can manage or delete stored conversations and memory entries through the extension's settings. Users can also remove all extension data by uninstalling the extension and clearing any remaining browser-managed extension storage.
Information submitted to third-party AI providers may be subject to those providers' own storage and retention policies.
BrowserBot does not sell, rent, or share user information with advertisers, data brokers, or the extension developer.
However, certain features require information to be sent to an AI service selected and configured by the user.
Depending on the selected provider, information such as user prompts, conversation context, extracted webpage content, attached tab content, or debugging information may be transmitted to:
OpenAI (OpenAI-compatible API services).
Ollama (a locally hosted or user-configured Ollama endpoint).
Only the provider selected for a particular operation is used. These services are not all contacted simultaneously.
For locally hosted AI services, such as Ollama or Chrome's built-in AI, processing can take place on the user's own device or configured local environment.
Each third-party provider operates under its own privacy policy, data handling practices, and retention terms. Users should review the applicable provider's privacy policy before using its services.
BrowserBot does not independently control how third-party providers process information after receiving it.
Some BrowserBot features require additional browser permissions.
Context Menus: Used to provide right-click actions, including asking BrowserBot about selected webpage text.
History: An optional permission used only when the user enables it and requests browsing-history context through the /history feature.
BrowserBot does not use the optional History permission for background browsing-history collection or advertising.
Users can manage optional permissions through their browser's extension settings.
BrowserBot does not use third-party analytics services, advertising networks, tracking pixels, or behavioral advertising tools.
The extension does not sell user information or collect browsing activity for advertising purposes.
BrowserBot is not specifically designed for children under the age of 13.
The extension does not knowingly collect personal information from children through its own servers.
BrowserBot uses browser-managed storage and browser permission mechanisms to handle extension information.
Sensitive values in supported DevTools network captures are automatically redacted where implemented.
Users should protect their browser profiles and API credentials and review the privacy and security practices of any third-party AI provider they configure.
This Privacy Policy may be updated when extension functionality or data-handling practices change.
Any updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
