Introduction
Welcome to Silly AI, a lightweight Chrome extension that revolutionizes your writing experience. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you use our extension and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
What is Silly AI
Silly AI is a Chrome extension built on the powerful ChatGPT. It is designed to be as simple, unintrusive, and effective as possible. We understand the importance of a clean workspace, which is why Silly AI doesn’t bloat your pages with unnecessary widgets or sidebars. It’s all about your convenience and seamless productivity.
Who We Are
Silly AI is a product of Extensions Folk, a dedicated team committed to enhancing your digital experience with innovative and user-friendly extensions. Extensions Folk is the author and publisher of Silly AI, and we operate under the website extfolk.com.
The Data We Collect About You
We only collect and process your Email ID and remaining tokens to track your token usage. We do not collect any other personal data about you. We do not collect any special categories of personal data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.
How We Use Your Personal Data
We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:
- Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
- Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
- Where we need to comply with a legal obligation.
Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
Data Retention
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
Your Legal Rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. You have the right to:
- Request access to your personal data.
- Request correction of your personal data.
- Request erasure of your personal data.
- Object to processing of your personal data.
- Request restriction of processing your personal data.
- Request transfer of your personal data.
- Right to withdraw consent.
Third-Party Links
This extension may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, and applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave our extension, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.
Payments
We use the secure Stripe API for payments and never store your payment information. Your payment is handled by Stripe, and we do not have access to your card information.
No Sale of Personal Data
In accordance with our values and commitments to our users, we do not and will not sell your personal data to any third party, including third party advertisers. There are no circumstances under which we would sell your data.
No Collection of Browsing History
We do not fetch or store your browsing history on our servers. Your browsing history remains private and is not accessedby us.
No Collection of User Prompts
We do not fetch or store your prompts or writing history on our servers. Your prompts and writing history are saved locally and deleted as soon as you refresh the page.
Permissions Justification
Our extension requires certain permissions to function optimally. These permissions include:
- Identity Permission: This is crucial for user authentication and allocation of API tokens to users. We use the chrome.identity.getAuthToken function to obtain a token and pass it to GoogleAuthProvider.credential(token) for authentication.
- Storage Permission: This is implemented for local storage and sync storage. Local storage is used to temporarily cache details like API usage, remaining tokens, and more. Sync storage is used to store the extension’s data, such as which sites have the extension enabled or disabled.
- Tabs Permission: This is essential to ensure a seamless user experience, especially during extension updates. With this permission, we can access all currently open tabs to silently reinject the content script as per our toggle state.
- Scripting Permission: This is implemented for efficient functionality and dynamic interaction within the user’s browser. We use chrome.scripting.executeScript for dynamic script injection and event dispatch.
- Active Tab Permission: This is crucial to the extension’s functionality, specifically in relation to our site-specific enable/disable toggle feature.
- Host Permission: This is necessary for the extension to function in real time, sending user prompts extracted from text fields to the backend server, receiving a response, and then inserting that response into the appropriate text field.
