Privacy Policy

Introduction

At S&S - AI Privacy Policy Summarizer, safeguarding your privacy is not just a commitment—it's the foundation of why we exist. Our mission is to empower users by providing clarity about the information companies collect while maintaining your trust through transparency and respect for your data.

This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect, why we collect it, and how we ensure it is protected. Rest assured, any data we collect is strictly necessary for delivering the functionality and improving your experience with our app.

What Information We Collect and Why

User Registration Data: We collect your name, email address, and Google profile information (if you sign in with Google). This is necessary to authenticate your account, personalize your experience, and allow you to track your usage or access premium features.

Extension Usage Data: Limited usage statistics, such as the number of summarizations performed and the frequency of use, are collected. This helps us enforce usage limits based on your plan (free or premium) and optimize our services.

IP Address and Location Data: We collect your IP address and generalized location data (city, region, country). This data helps us prevent abuse, maintain security, and ensure fair usage by identifying unique users.

Error and Performance Logs: Technical details like errors, app performance metrics, and browser information are logged to diagnose issues, improve functionality, and maintain a seamless experience.

Summarization Data: URLs submitted for summarization and generated PDF files are temporarily stored to facilitate the service and are not used for any other purpose.

Payment Information

We do not collect or store any payment information directly. For handling payments, we use the open-source service ExtensionPay.

How ExtensionPay Protects Your Privacy: Your data remains anonymous until payment is made. All payment information is securely processed by Stripe, a trusted payment provider. ExtensionPay does not sell, share, or store your credit card details.

For further details, please refer to the ExtensionPay FAQ.

Email Communications

We use AWS Simple Email Service (SES) to send essential emails such as account verifications and password resets. AWS SES is a secure email service adhering to strict privacy and security standards, ensuring your email address and communication details are protected.

How We Protect Your Data

  • Strict Access Controls: Only authorized personnel with a clear purpose can access stored data.
  • Encryption: All data in transit is encrypted using industry-standard protocols like HTTPS.
  • Temporary Storage: Summarization data (e.g., URLs and PDFs) is deleted automatically after processing.
  • Third-Party Compliance: We work with trusted services (e.g., ExtensionPay, AWS SES, Google Cloud) that adhere to stringent security standards.

You have the following rights regarding your data:

  • Access and Download: Request a copy of your stored data.
  • Update or Correct: Notify us to update inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Delete Your Account: Contact us to delete your data entirely.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Account data is retained until you request deletion, and temporary data (e.g., summarization files) is deleted automatically after processing.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If significant changes are made, we will notify you via email and provide a clear explanation of the updates.
