Privacy Policy

How we protect your privacy

Our Commitment to Privacy

At SideClick, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, and protection of information when you use the SideClick browser extension.

No Personal Data Collection

SideClick does not collect or store any personal data. While our extension may send some data to our servers for AI processing, this data is processed in real-time and is not permanently stored or collected for any purpose beyond the immediate processing request.

How SideClick Works

The SideClick extension:

  • Primarily operates within your browser
  • Processes most data locally on your device
  • May send specific webpage elements to our servers only for AI processing to enable automation functionality
  • Does not permanently store your browsing data, automation workflows, or extracted information
  • Does not use tracking technologies to monitor your behavior

Data Processing for AI Functionality

To provide intelligent automation capabilities, SideClick may send specific webpage elements or content to our servers for AI processing. This data:

  • Is only sent when necessary for the functioning of the requested automation feature
  • Is processed in real-time and not stored beyond the duration needed for processing
  • Is transmitted using secure, encrypted connections
  • Is not used for analytics, advertising, or any purpose other than providing the requested automation functionality
  • Is not linked to your personal identity

Storage Usage

SideClick uses your browser's local storage to save:

  • Automation workflows you create
  • Extension preferences and settings
  • Temporarily cached data during automation tasks

All this information is stored locally on your device. We do not maintain a database of user data or workflows on our servers.

Permissions Used

SideClick requires several browser permissions to function properly. These permissions are used exclusively to enable the automation features and are not used to collect or permanently store personal data:

  • activeTab: To interact with the current browser tab
  • downloads: To save extracted data to your device
  • host: To perform automation across websites
  • scripting: To execute automation scripts
  • storage: To save workflows and preferences locally
  • tabs: To navigate between tabs during multi-page workflows
  • webNavigation: To detect page loading states
  • webRequest: To monitor network requests for optimal automation timing

Updates and Remote Code

SideClick may download updates to improve functionality and website compatibility. These updates:

  • Contain only code related to the extension's functionality
  • Do not include tracking or data collection mechanisms
  • Are digitally signed and verified for security

Third-Party Services

SideClick does not integrate with third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. Any data sent for AI processing is handled solely by SideClick's own systems.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the extension accordingly.
