SlideDrift Chrome Extension Privacy

This page covers the browser extension specifically. It is designed to act only after you choose a capture action.

01

What the extension can access

After you click the extension, it can read the active tab title and URL. Right-click actions receive only the page, link, or selected text you explicitly act on. The extension has no all-sites host permission.

02

When data leaves the browser

Opening the popup does not send page information to SlideDrift. Choosing Create carousel opens SlideDrift with the brief temporarily carried in the URL fragment, which is not included in the initial web request and is removed after import. Copy brief writes only to your clipboard.

03

Local capture history

The last 10 capture entries are stored with Chrome local storage. Each entry contains the source title, URL, source type, and timestamp. Selected text, pasted transcripts, and video notes are never stored in capture history. Audience, Story, and slide-count preferences are stored locally.

04

SlideDrift processing

If you continue to SlideDrift, the imported brief is prefilled for review. AI processing begins only when generation starts. Source details, pasted transcript text, and notes are then handled under the main SlideDrift Privacy Policy and may be processed by the service providers described there.

05

Chrome Web Store Limited Use

The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

06

How to clear extension data

Choose Clear beside Capture history in the popup to remove recent sources. Uninstalling the extension removes its Chrome local storage. You can also remove extension data through Chrome's extension settings.
