Privacy Policy

Last Updated: June 2026

Effective Date: January 2026

🔒 Our Core Principle

Your data is YOUR data. We store your prompts in YOUR Google Drive, and we cannot access your other files.

1. Introduction

CloudPrompt ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how CloudPrompt handles your data when you use our browser extension (available for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Comet by Perplexity).

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Data You Provide

  • Prompt Content: The AI prompts you create and save
  • Titles & Tags: Organizational metadata you add to prompts
  • Categories: Folder names and categories you create
  • Usage Statistics: Local count of how many times you use each prompt

2.2 Data We Do NOT Collect

  • We do NOT collect any personal information
  • We do NOT track your browsing history
  • We do NOT send your data to our servers (we don't have servers)
  • We do NOT share your data with third parties
  • We do NOT use your data for advertising

3. How We Use Your Information

3.1 Google Drive Storage

  • Your prompts are stored in a file called CloudPrompt/prompts.json in YOUR Google Drive
  • We ONLY access files that CloudPrompt creates
  • We CANNOT see or access your other Google Drive files
  • You own 100% of your data

3.1a Automatic Backups

To protect against accidental data loss, CloudPrompt automatically saves timestamped backup copies of your prompts (for example, cloudprompt-autobackup-2026-06-17.json) in the same CloudPrompt folder in YOUR Google Drive.

  • These backups are created only when your prompt data changes in a way that could risk loss
  • Only the most recent few backups are kept — older ones are removed automatically
  • Like all your prompt data, these backups live in YOUR Google Drive — we never receive, see, or store them
  • You can delete these backup files at any time from your Google Drive

3.2 Local Storage

  • We cache your prompts locally in your browser's storage for faster loading
  • This data stays on your device
  • No data is transmitted to external servers

3.3 Google OAuth Authentication

  • We use Google's OAuth 2.0 to connect to your Google Drive
  • We request minimal permissions: drive.file
  • This scope ONLY allows access to files created by CloudPrompt
  • You can revoke access at any time in Google Account settings

3.4 Authentication on Non-Chrome Browsers

For users on Microsoft Edge and Comet (Chromium-based browsers), CloudPrompt uses a secure OAuth flow that briefly opens a sign-in tab. After you authorize access, the browser redirects to cloudprompt.app/oauth-callback.html — a static page with no JavaScript, no tracking, and no data collection.

  • The authentication token is in the URL fragment (after #), which is never sent to any server by design
  • The sign-in tab closes automatically after authentication completes
  • No tokens, credentials, or user data are transmitted to or stored on our servers during this process

4. Data Storage & Security

4.1 Where Your Data is Stored

  1. 1. Google Drive: Your prompts and their automatic backups are saved in your personal Google Drive
  2. 2. Local Browser Storage: Cached copy for offline access and performance
  3. 3. No External Servers: We do not operate any servers or databases

4.2 Security Measures

  • All data transmission uses HTTPS encryption
  • Google Drive provides enterprise-grade encryption at rest
  • OAuth tokens are stored securely in your browser's encrypted storage
  • We never store your Google password

5. Data Retention & Deletion

5.1 How Long We Keep Your Data

  • Your prompts remain in your Google Drive until YOU delete them
  • Automatic backup files remain in your Google Drive until they are removed automatically (only the most recent few are kept) or you delete them
  • Local cache is cleared when you uninstall the extension
  • No data is retained by us (we have no servers)

5.2 How to Delete Your Data

You can delete your data at any time:

  1. 1. Delete individual prompts: Use the delete button in the extension
  2. 2. Delete all data: Uninstall the extension and delete the CloudPrompt folder (including prompts.json and any cloudprompt-autobackup-*.json files) from your Google Drive
  3. 3. Disconnect Google Drive: Go to Settings → Disconnect Google Drive

6. Third-Party Services

6.1 Google Drive API

  • We use Google Drive API to store your prompts
  • Google's Privacy Policy applies to their services: policies.google.com/privacy
  • We do NOT share your data with Google beyond what's necessary for storage

6.2 Website Analytics

Our website (cloudprompt.app) uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use our site. This includes:

  • Page views and traffic sources
  • General geographic location (country/city level)
  • Browser and device information

This data is anonymous and helps us improve the website. The browser extension itself does not collect analytics.

6.3 No Other Third Parties

  • We do NOT use advertising networks
  • We do NOT integrate with any other third-party services in the extension

7. Children's Privacy

CloudPrompt does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not use this extension. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with information, we will delete it immediately.

8. International Data Transfers

Your data is stored in your Google Drive, which may be located in various countries depending on your Google account settings. Google complies with international data transfer regulations including GDPR.

9. Your Privacy Rights

9.1 Rights Under GDPR (EU Users)

If you are in the European Economic Area, you have the right to:

  • Access: View all data we store (it's in your Google Drive)
  • Rectification: Edit or correct your prompts at any time
  • Erasure: Delete your prompts or uninstall the extension
  • Data Portability: Export your prompts as JSON or CSV
  • Object: Disconnect Google Drive or uninstall the extension

9.2 Rights Under CCPA (California Users)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

  • Know what data we collect (listed in Section 2)
  • Delete your data (see Section 5.2)
  • Opt-out of data sales (we don't sell data)

10. Permissions Explained

CloudPrompt requests the following browser permissions:

storage

  • Why: Save your preferences and cache prompts locally
  • What we access: Extension settings, cached prompts
  • What we DON'T access: Browsing history, passwords, other extensions' data

unlimitedStorage

  • Why: Prevent data loss if your prompt library grows beyond the default 5MB browser storage limit
  • What we access: Only CloudPrompt's own local cache
  • What we DON'T access: Other extensions' storage, browser data, or system storage

identity

  • Why: Authenticate with Google Drive via OAuth
  • What we access: OAuth token to access Google Drive
  • What we DON'T access: Your Google password, other Google services

tabs

  • Why: Handle secure Google sign-in on non-Chrome browsers (Edge, Comet). CloudPrompt opens a temporary sign-in tab, extracts the authentication token, and closes the tab automatically.
  • What we access: Only the URL of the temporary sign-in tab to complete authentication
  • What we DON'T access: Your browsing activity, open tabs, tab history, or any other tab content

contextMenus

  • Why: Power CloudPrompt's right-click menu options. When you highlight text and right-click, you can choose "Save to CloudPrompt" to save the highlighted text as a new prompt. When you right-click a text field, you can choose "Insert CloudPrompt" to place a saved prompt directly into it — no copy-paste required.
  • What we access: Only the text you have selected (when you choose "Save to CloudPrompt"), or the text field you chose to insert into (when you choose "Insert CloudPrompt") — and only at the moment you make that choice
  • What we DON'T access: Page content, other form fields, browsing history, or anything you didn't explicitly select or choose

https://www.googleapis.com/*

  • Why: Communicate with Google Drive API
  • What we access: Files CloudPrompt creates in your Drive
  • What we DON'T access: Your other Google Drive files

Host Permissions (All Websites)

  • Why: To let the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+Y) open CloudPrompt on any webpage; to let "Save to CloudPrompt" save text you have highlighted; to let "Insert CloudPrompt" place a prompt into a text field; and to show prompts relevant to the AI platform you're currently using (Context-Aware Prompts).
  • What we access (only when you act): The text you have selected (when you save it), the text field you insert into (when you insert), and the website address (URL) of your active tab (to surface relevant prompts). We inject CloudPrompt's own overlay when you press the shortcut.
  • What we DON'T access: We do not read, collect, or transmit page content, form data, or browsing history. Selected text is stored only in YOUR Google Drive, and the active-tab URL is used locally on your device and is never transmitted to us.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. Continued use of CloudPrompt after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

12. Legal Compliance

CloudPrompt complies with:

  • General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
  • California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
  • Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies
  • Google API Services User Data Policy

13. Data Processing Summary

Data Type Storage Location Who Can Access Retention
