Privacy Policy

Introduction
Welcome to YT Notes! We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you about how we handle your personal information when you use our Chrome extension.

Information We Collect
Our extension does not collect, store, or use any personal information from its users, except for collecting your email when taking feedback to enhance our product by adding new features and updates based on your suggestions.

Permissions
To function properly, our extension requests the following permissions:

  • tabs: This permission allows the extension to access your browser tabs. It is used to manage and interact with the tabs to provide you with enhanced functionality, such as modifying content on specific websites or integrating with other services.

  • storage: This permission allows the extension to store settings and preferences locally on your device. It ensures that your configuration and data persist between sessions.

  • host_permissions: This permission restricts the extension's access to specific websites. In this case, the extension can only interact with pages on https://www.youtube.com/*. This is necessary for the extension to provide its functionality specifically on YouTube, such as adding features or improving usability on that site.

We do not collect any personal data without your consent, and the extension operates within the boundaries of these permissions to ensure a secure and efficient user experience. If you have any further questions or concerns about the extension's permissions or data usage, please feel free to contact our support team at support@ytnotes.app.

How We Use Your Information

  • Email: We collect your email address to gather feedback and enhance our product by adding new features and updates based on your suggestions.
  • Notes Generation: The video transcripts are used to generate video notes. This data is passed on to the third-party OpenAI API for generating video notes.

Data Security
We prioritize your data security and ensure that no personal data is collected, stored, or transmitted by our extension. Rest assured, we do not sell your personal data to third parties.

Third-Party API
Our extension uses the third-party OpenAI API to generate youtube video notes. Please note that:

  • As of March 1st, 2023, OpenAI retains customer API data for 30 days but no longer uses customer data sent via the API to improve its models. This means that the data sent through the API is not used for training purposes. For more details, you can refer to their data usage policy here: https://platform.openai.com/docs/data-usage-policy.
  • For business offerings such as the API, OpenAI does not use content to improve model performance. You can find more information on how business data is handled on their Enterprise Privacy page here: https://openai.com/enterprise-privacy.

Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the updated policy will be effective immediately upon posting.
