Privacy Policy

Your prompts are yours. Here's how we handle them.

Last updated: August 20, 2025

How It Works

Local Storage (Default)

All prompts stored in your browser. Works completely offline. No account needed.

Cloud Sync (Optional)

Sign in to sync across devices. Your prompts (including full content) sync to secure servers.

Account Options

  • • No account needed - Local storage only
  • • Google Sign-in - Auto sync
  • • Email magic links - Passwordless sync

Chrome Permissions

We request minimal permissions:

🔑 "Read and change data on all websites"

Why we need it: To detect Ctrl+Shift+Space and show your prompt library instantly on any site (ChatGPT, Claude, Notion, Docs, etc.)

What it does: Listens for your hotkey. That's it.

What it doesn't do: Read page content, track browsing, or access your data on websites.

📋 "Modify clipboard"

→ Writes prompts to clipboard when you click them

→ Never reads what you've copied from other sources

🔔 "Display notifications"

→ Optional sync status updates only

💾 Storage & Side Panel

→ Save prompts locally and show the UI

What We Store

Local Storage (Always):

  • • Your prompts and their full content
  • • Projects, collections, and tags
  • • UI preferences (theme, hotkey, pinned prompts)

Cloud Storage (When Logged In):

  • • Usage counts and timestamps
  • • Your email address (for authentication)
  • • Name and avatar (if using Google OAuth)

Analytics & Tracking

Extension Analytics:

  • • We use Chrome's built-in analytics to understand feature usage
  • • This tracks interactions within the extension only
  • • Helps us prioritize which features to build next
  • • Cannot be disabled

Usage Data (When Logged In):

  • • How often you copy each prompt (useCount)
  • • When you last used each prompt (lastUsedAt)
  • • How often you open the extension (quickAccessCount)
  • • Sync events and frequency
  • • Tied to your account email

Data Access

When you enable cloud sync, your prompts are stored on our servers. As the service provider, we have technical access to this data for:

  • • Backup and recovery
  • • System maintenance
  • • Legal compliance if required

What We Don't Do:

  • • Read your prompts for any other purpose
  • • Use prompt content for training or analytics
  • • Share prompt content with third parties
  • • Track which websites you visit
  • • Monitor your clipboard activity
  • • Sell your data

Your Control

You can always:

  • • Delete specific prompts or everything
  • • Work offline (no cloud sync)
  • • Sign out for local-only mode
  • • Request data export: privacy@prompttheory.dev
  • • Delete your account and all cloud data

Security

  • • End-to-end encryption for synced data (AES-GCM 256-bit)
  • • Secure authentication (no password storage)
  • • Regular security updates
  • • Database encryption at rest
