LootedIdeas Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 2026
LootedIdeas ("we") is a browser extension operated by Abhishek Pawar. This policy explains what the extension and its optional backend service handle.
What stays on your device
- Your saved items (titles, post text, notes, tags, view/like counts, links, thumbnail links) are stored only in your browser (
chrome.storage.local). We never receive them. - Your settings and AI API keys (if you add your own) are stored only in your browser.
What is sent to third parties, and when
- When you click Generate with your own API key, the source text you're repurposing (title, transcript or notes) is sent directly from your browser to the AI provider you chose (e.g. Anthropic, OpenAI, or a server you configured). Their privacy policy applies to that request.
- When you use LootedIdeas hosted AI (Pro), that same source text is sent to our server, which forwards it to Anthropic to generate the result. We don't store the text or the generated output; it passes through only to fulfil the request.
- When you upgrade, our payment provider (Dodo Payments) collects your payment details and email on their own checkout page. We never see your card details.
What our server stores (Pro / billing only)
- A random account ID and a one-way hash of your license key
- The email address you used at checkout, received from the payment provider, kept only so we can find your purchase, help you if you lose your license key, and answer support questions
- Your subscription status, renewal date and the payment provider's customer and subscription IDs
- Daily usage counters (number of AI requests per day) used for fair-use limits
- A one-way hash of your IP address, kept for up to 7 days, to prevent abuse of account creation
Usage counters are deleted after 7 days.
We don't sell or share data, use it for advertising, or use it to train AI models.
