Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how the YouTube SEO AI Optimizer Chrome Extension (“the Extension”, “we”, “us”) handles your data.
1. Data Collection and Usage
The extension does not collect or store any personal information from users. All AI requests are made directly to either OpenAI or Google Gemini using the API keys that you provide.
The only data stored locally in your browser’s Chrome storage includes:
- Your API key (encrypted in local storage).
- SEO results and history you generate within the extension.
- Basic usage statistics (e.g., monthly generation count).
This data is never transmitted to our servers or shared with any third party.
2. Third-Party APIs
The extension connects only with the APIs you authorize, such as:
- OpenAI API (https://api.openai.com)
- Google Gemini API (https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com)
3. Permissions
The extension requests the following permissions:
- storage – to save user settings, API keys, and SEO history locally.
- host_permissions – to access YouTube Studio for generating SEO suggestions.
4. Data Security
We use Chrome’s built-in storage mechanisms, which are sandboxed and protected. Your API keys and generated data remain private to your local device.
5. Data Sharing
The extension does not sell, trade, or otherwise share user data with any third parties. All interactions occur only between your browser, YouTube Studio, and the API provider you choose.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page, along with the updated “Effective Date.”
