Privacy Policy for X Reply Auto Generator

Last Updated:

Overview

X Reply Auto Generator ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy policy explains how we handle information when you use our Chrome extension.

Data Collection

We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. The extension operates entirely locally on your device.

Data Storage

All settings and preferences are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API:

• API Keys: Stored locally using Chrome's chrome.storage.sync API
• Preferences: AI provider selection, model choices, reply tone settings
• Location: All data is stored on your device and never transmitted to us

This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or any third parties (except the AI provider you choose to use).

External API Usage

When you use the extension to generate replies:

• Tweet Text: The text of the tweet you're replying to is sent to the AI provider you configure (Groq, Hugging Face, OpenAI, or custom API)
• Direct Communication: This data is sent directly from your browser to the API provider you choose
• No Interception: We do not intercept, store, or log this data
• API Keys: Your API keys are stored locally and used only to authenticate with the AI provider you select

Third-Party Services

The extension may use the following third-party services (only if you configure them):

• Groq API: Used for AI-powered reply generation. View Groq Privacy Policy
• Hugging Face API: Used for AI-powered reply generation. View Hugging Face Privacy Policy
• OpenAI API: Used if you configure an OpenAI-compatible endpoint. View OpenAI Privacy Policy

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party services. Please review their privacy policies before using their services.

The extension requests the following permissions:

• Storage: To save your settings locally
• Active Tab: To interact with Twitter/X pages

Analytics and Tracking

This extension does not use any analytics, tracking, or telemetry services. We do not collect usage statistics, error reports, or any other data about how you use the extension.

Data Sharing

We do not share, sell, or rent your data to anyone. The only data transmission occurs when you choose to use an AI provider, and in that case, the data (tweet text) is sent directly from your browser to the AI provider you configured.

Children's Privacy

Our extension is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
