Privacy Policy
ContextPilot is a Chrome side-panel extension that summarizes the current webpage. This policy explains what data is processed, why it’s processed, and what we do (and do not) store.
Quick Summary
What we don’t do: we don’t create personal profiles, we don’t sell data, and we don’t store your browsing history.
- Processed data: page title, description, URL, and extracted page text you choose to summarize.
- Where it’s processed: in the extension and (when enabled) on our API server to reach Gemini/OpenAI.
- Storage: only your local preferences (e.g., provider mode, “article only”, font size).
- Sharing: only to the selected AI provider(s) for summarization, as required to fulfill the feature.
Why ContextPilot Exists (Benefits)
- Instant clarity: turn long pages into concise bullet points.
- Side-panel workflow: keep your page visible while reading the summary.
- Smart extraction: reduce noise like nav/ads and focus on main content.
- Provider control: Auto / Gemini / OpenAI.
- Graceful fallback: if a provider fails, you still get a usable summary.
- Click-to-highlight: click any bullet to highlight matching text on the page.
Note: Summaries are generated from the page text available at the time you click “Summarize”.
Data Handling Details
| Data | Why it’s needed | Stored? | Shared? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Page title & description | Improve summary context and readability | No (not stored by default) | Yes (sent with the summarization request) |
| Page URL | Context for the summary, and to handle page-level behavior | No (not stored by default) | Yes (sent with the summarization request) |
| Extracted page text | Generate the bullet summary | No (not stored by default) | Yes (may be sent to AI providers via our API) |
| Extension preferences (provider mode, article-only, font size) | Remember your settings for a better experience | Yes (locally in your browser) | No |
What We Store
- Local preferences only (saved in your browser): provider mode (Auto/Gemini/OpenAI), “article only” toggle, and font size.
- We do not store your summaries or page content as a user profile.
What We Share
When you request a summary, ContextPilot may send the extracted page text (and basic page meta) to AI providers such as Google Gemini and/or OpenAI through our API, solely to generate the requested summary. The chosen provider depends on your selection (Auto/Gemini/OpenAI) and availability.
Security & Minimization
- Only the minimum page data required to generate a summary is processed.
- Internal Chrome pages (e.g., chrome://) are not accessible for summarization.
- We recommend not summarizing pages containing sensitive personal information.
Children’s Privacy
ContextPilot is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as the product evolves. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the latest version.
