01 · WHAT THE EXTENSION DOES
Relay is a browser extension that gives your AI tools a memory. It reads conversations from AI tools you are already using, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and more, and saves them locally on your machine so you can reload them in any future session.
The extension works by making network calls to read conversation content from supported AI tool pages. It requires an active internet connection to function.
Nothing it saves ever leaves your device unless you explicitly ask it to. See section 07 for the future Pro plan.
02 · WHAT IT COLLECTS
In the current free tier, the extension collects nothing personal that leaves your device.
The only data Relay handles is the conversation content you choose to save, and that stays entirely on your machine, in your local storage. We never see it. We never touch it.
The only thing that does leave your device is anonymous crash and error data. See section 05.
03 · WHAT IT DOESN'T COLLECT
- ·Your name, email, or any personal information
- ·Your IP address
- ·Your location
- ·Which websites you visit
- ·How often you use the extension
- ·Clicks, keystrokes, or any user activity
- ·The content of your saved conversations, ever
- ·Any data tied to your identity
04 · WHERE YOUR DATA LIVES
On your machine. Only your machine.
When you save a conversation, it goes into your browser's local storage or, if you are running the Relay desktop service, into a local database on your own device. Either way, it never leaves your machine in the free tier.
We do not have servers that receive your conversation data. We physically cannot read what you have saved.
05 · ERROR REPORTING
When the extension crashes or runs into an error, we collect a small amount of anonymous technical information to help us fix it. This is the only data that leaves your device in the free tier.
What error reports contain:
- ·The error message and where in the code it happened
- ·Your browser version and operating system
- ·The version of the extension you are running
- ·The action that triggered the error
What error reports never contain:
- ·The content of your conversations
- ·Any personally identifiable information
- ·Your browsing history or tab activity
- ·Anything that could identify you as an individual
This data is processed by a third-party crash reporting service. It is used solely to identify and fix bugs, nothing else. It is never sold, shared, or used for any other purpose.
We collect this because we genuinely need it to build a better product. Without it, we are flying blind when something breaks. With it, we can fix problems before most users even notice them.
06 · PERMISSIONS AND WHY WE NEED THEM
The extension requests several browser permissions. Here is exactly why each one exists:
Storage
To save your conversations locally on your device. Without this, nothing can be saved between sessions.
Tabs
To detect which AI tool you are currently on, Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc., so Relay knows which adapter to activate. We do not log your tab history or track what you browse.
Host permissions (AI tool pages)
To read the conversation content on the page when you hit save, and to inject saved context back into the input field when you load. Relay only activates on supported AI tool pages, not on general browsing.
Alarms
To periodically check whether the Relay desktop service is running and keep the connection alive. This runs locally, no external calls.
Side panel
To show the Relay popup alongside the AI tool you are using, so you can save and load without leaving the page.
07 · IF YOU USE A FUTURE PRO PLAN
We are working on a Pro tier that will add cloud sync, letting you access your saved conversations across multiple devices and share context with teammates.
If and when that launches:
- ·Cloud sync will be opt-in only. The free tier stays local-first, always.
- ·Your conversation data would be stored on third-party cloud infrastructure. The specific provider will be named here before Pro launches.
- ·You will get a clear explanation of what changes before anything leaves your device.
- ·You will be able to export or delete all your cloud data at any time.
- ·This policy will be updated in full before Pro launches, not after.
Until then, nothing changes. Everything stays on your machine.
08 · HOW TO DELETE YOUR DATA
Free tier, conversation data: Your conversations live on your device. Clear them anytime by uninstalling the extension or clearing your browser's local storage. We have nothing on our end to delete because we never received it.
Free tier, error reports: Anonymous and not tied to your identity, so there is nothing to delete. If you would prefer error reporting to be disabled, email us and we will tell you how.
Future Pro tier: Email support@codeclowns.com and we will delete everything from our servers within 48 hours and confirm when it is done.
09 · CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
If anything material changes, especially around the Pro plan and cloud storage, we will update the date at the top of this page and, where possible, notify users through the extension itself.
We will not quietly change what data we collect. If the free tier ever changes from local-only conversation storage, we will ask for your explicit consent first.
