# Privacy Policy

Effective Date: February 22, 2026

## What ClickSay Does

ClickSay is a Chrome extension that lets you click any element on a web page, describe your feedback via voice or text, and copy a structured prompt to your clipboard for use with AI assistants.

## Data Collection

ClickSay does **not** collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers.

### Data stored locally on your device

ClickSay uses Chrome's `storage.local` API to store the following data **entirely on your device**:

- **Feedback history**: Element metadata (tag name, selector, text content, computed styles), your spoken/typed feedback text, page URL, and timestamp.
- **Screenshots**: Captured screenshots of the visible browser tab at the time of feedback, stored as images alongside your history.
- **Settings**: Your output format preferences, URL-to-file mapping rules, project root path, and relay preferences.

This data never leaves your browser unless you explicitly copy it to your clipboard or enable the optional relay feature.

### Data not collected

- No analytics or telemetry
- No user accounts or authentication
- No cookies or tracking
- No data sent to any remote server by default

### Website analytics

The clicksay.net website uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand visitor traffic, page views, and geographic distribution. This applies only to the website - the Chrome extension does not include any analytics or tracking code. You can opt out of GA4 tracking by using a browser extension such as [Google Analytics Opt-out](https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

## Optional Relay Feature

ClickSay includes an optional local relay server (`clicksay-relay`) that runs on `127.0.0.1:19876` on your machine. When enabled:

- Feedback prompts are sent from the extension to the relay server running **locally on your computer**.
- The relay forwards prompts to a local tmux session (e.g., Claude Code).
- No data is sent to any external server. All communication is localhost-only.

The relay is disabled by default and must be explicitly started by you.

## Permissions

ClickSay requests the following Chrome permissions:

| Permission | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| activeTab | Access the current tab to capture element data when you click |
| sidePanel | Display the ClickSay side panel UI |
| storage | Store your feedback history and settings locally |
| contextMenus | Add "ClickSay this element" to the right-click menu |
| scripting | Inject the content script to enable element selection |
| clipboardWrite | Copy formatted prompts to your clipboard |
| offscreen | Clipboard fallback for contexts where direct copy isn't available |
| alarms | Schedule periodic cleanup of old screenshots |

## Data Retention

- Feedback history and screenshots are stored until you clear them manually or they are automatically purged based on your configured retention period (default: 30 days for screenshots).
- You can clear all history and purge all screenshots at any time from the side panel.

## Third-Party Services

ClickSay does not integrate with or send data to any third-party services. The extension operates entirely within your browser and local machine.

## Children's Privacy

ClickSay does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13.

## Changes to This Policy

Updates to this policy will be posted in the extension's repository. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
