1. Information We Collect We prioritize your privacy and strive to collect as little information as possible. Here’s what we do (and don’t) collect: Personal Data: We collect your email address when you provide it to us. This may be done through account creation, feedback forms, or other interactions where you voluntarily provide your email. Usage Data: We track the number of characters used within the Extension to provide insights into usage patterns. This data is used solely for internal purposes to improve the user experience and manage service limits. Audio Data: The text you submit for text-to-speech processing is sent to our server for processing. However, the audio data is not saved on our servers and is deleted immediately after processing. 2. How We Use Your Information We use the information we collect in the following ways: Email Address: We may use your email address to send important updates, respond to inquiries, and provide support. Usage Data: Usage data, such as character usage, is used to analyze and improve the service and manage limits on the use of the Extension. Audio Data: Text-to-speech processing occurs on our server, but the audio data is not stored. It is only used for real-time processing and is deleted immediately afterward. 3. Data Sharing and Third Parties We do not sell, rent, or share any user data. The only personal data we collect is your email address, which is never shared with third parties except as required to fulfill your requests or as required by law. Usage data (character counts) is used internally and not shared with third parties. Audio data is processed in real-time and never stored or shared with any external parties. 4. Security of Your Information We take security seriously. While the Extension requires sending text data to our server for audio processing, we employ industry-standard encryption to protect this data during transmission. No audio data is stored on our servers after processing. Additionally, we store your email address securely and use industry-standard practices to protect it. We continuously monitor and update our security measures to protect against potential vulnerabilities. 5. Children’s Privacy Our Extension is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided their email address or other personal data, please contact us so we can remove it. 7. Changes to This Privacy Policy We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If there are significant changes, we will notify you through the Extension or other appropriate means. The "Effective Date" at the top of this policy will be updated accordingly.
