Overview

AI Term Highlighter is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our browser extension.

Information We Collect

Text Content

When you use the "Scan Page" feature, we temporarily send the text content from the webpage you're viewing to our AI service to identify difficult terms. This text is processed in real-time and is not stored permanently.

User Preferences

We store your preferences locally in your browser, including:

Manual Text Selection

When you select text on a webpage for instant definitions, only the selected text is sent to our AI service for processing.

How We Use Your Information

Data Storage and Security

Local Storage

Your preferences are stored locally in your browser and are not transmitted to our servers.

Temporary Processing

Text content sent for analysis is processed temporarily and is not stored permanently on our servers.

Security Measures

All data transmission uses secure HTTPS connections to protect your information during processing.

Third-Party Services

We use Azure OpenAI services to process text and generate definitions. Their privacy policy governs how they handle data during processing.

Your Rights

Data Retention

We do not permanently store any personal data or webpage content. All processing is done in real-time, and no browsing history or personal information is retained.

Children's Privacy

Our extension is suitable for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and our service processes only the text content you choose to analyze.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
