We use your data to provide and improve the Extension. By installing and using the Extension, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information Collection and Use
We collect several different types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our Extension to you.
Types of Data Collected
Personal Data
The LongTail Chrome Extension is designed to protect your privacy. We do not collect personally identifiable information through the Extension itself.

We do not store or permanently retain webpage content.
Usage Data
We may collect information on how the Extension is used ("Usage Data"). This Usage Data may include general interaction patterns with the Extension, error reports for debugging purposes, and basic performance metrics.

Third-Party AI Services
To provide AI-powered assistance, our Extension sends webpage content to third-party AI service providers when you actively use the Extension's features. These services process your data to generate responses but do not store your data permanently. Each AI service provider has their own privacy policies that govern how they handle data.
You can control when data is sent to AI services by choosing when to interact with the Extension's features. Data is only sent when you actively request AI assistance.

We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
We will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer time periods.
Transfer of Data
Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
