AI Trace Extension Privacy Policy

The AI Trace browser extension reads only the current tab URL to identify the website you are visiting. This URL is compared against a locally bundled mapping of company domains. No URLs, browsing history, or personal data are transmitted to AI Trace servers.

When you visit a recognized company website, the extension makes a single API request to aitrace.org to retrieve publicly available company data. This request contains only the company identifier (slug), not the full URL you visited.

The extension:
- Does NOT access or read page content
- Does NOT inject scripts into web pages
- Does NOT track browsing history or navigation patterns
- Does NOT collect, transmit, or store personal data
- Does NOT use analytics, telemetry, or tracking services
- Does NOT require a user account

API responses are cached locally in your browser's extension storage for 24 hours. This data is public information already available at aitrace.org.

The extension requests only two permissions:
- activeTab: to read the URL of the currently active tab
- storage: to cache API responses locally
