Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how ChatGPT Pro Tools (browser extension) handles your data. We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about our data practices.

2. Data Collection & Usage

Outside of Pro license verification (section 3), the extension does not send your data to us or third parties — everything else stays in your browser.

• Access token – read ephemerally from outgoing ChatGPT requests; never stored or transmitted elsewhere. Needs to get users locale.
• Locale – read to adapt UI; not persisted beyond session state.

No analytics, no tracking scripts, no sale or sharing of data. The site contact form (if used) is separate and optional.

3. Pro License Verification

If you purchase a Pro subscription, the extension contacts our license server (gptprotools.com/api/license) to verify and manage your license. This is the only case where the extension sends data to us:

• License key – sent to confirm your subscription is active (we check its status with our payment provider, Paddle).
• ChatGPT account email – sent so a Pro license can be tied to a single ChatGPT account (this stops one key being shared across many accounts). We store only a one-way salted hash of the email against your subscription — never the plain-text address — and use it solely to match your account on later license checks. Deactivating Pro releases this link.

Payments are handled by Paddle.com Market Limited (our Merchant of Record); we never receive or store your payment details. Free features never contact our server.

4. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, especially as we add new features. We recommend reviewing this page periodically. Your continued use of the Extension constitutes your acceptance of any modifications.
