Tools AI

Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 1, 2026

1. Introduction

Tools AI ("we", "our", "us") operates the Tools AI website and Chrome extension (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed version of your password. We never store passwords in plain text.

2.2 Conversation Data

Our Chrome extension captures conversations you have with AI platforms (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) that you visit while the extension is active. This includes:

  • Message content (both your messages and AI responses)
  • Conversation titles and timestamps
  • Code blocks extracted from conversations
  • File downloads initiated during AI conversations

Important: Data is captured only on AI platform websites you actively visit. We do not monitor or capture any other browsing activity.

2.3 Usage Data

We may collect basic usage analytics such as feature usage counts and error reports to improve the Service. We do not track your browsing history outside of supported AI platforms.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
  • Store and organize your AI conversations for your personal use
  • Enable search across your saved conversations
  • Authenticate your account and protect your data
  • Send you important service updates (not marketing)

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored in secure databases hosted by Supabase (built on PostgreSQL) with encryption at rest. All data transmission between your browser and our servers uses HTTPS/TLS encryption.

Each user's data is isolated — you can only access your own conversations. We use JWT-based authentication to verify your identity on every request.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties.

We may share data only in these limited circumstances:

  • With your explicit consent
  • To comply with legal obligations or valid legal processes
  • To protect the safety of our users or the public
  • With service providers who help operate the Service (e.g., hosting), under strict confidentiality agreements

6. AI Training

We never use your conversations to train AI models. Your data is yours alone, stored for your personal use and retrieval.

7. Your API Keys

If you provide API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) for the chat feature, these keys are stored locally in your browser's localStorage and are sent directly to the respective AI provider. We do not store your API keys on our servers.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your data at any time through the dashboard
  • Export all your conversations in standard formats
  • Delete any or all of your conversations
  • Close your account and have all data permanently removed

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@thetoolswebsite.com or use the in-app deletion features.

9. Chrome Extension Permissions

The Tools AI Chrome extension requests the following permissions:

  • activeTab: To read AI conversation content on the current tab
  • storage: To save captured conversations locally
  • downloads: To detect and catalog file downloads from AI platforms

The extension only activates on AI platform domains (chat.openai.com, claude.ai, gemini.google.com). It does not access any other websites.

10. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, all associated data is permanently removed within 30 days. Waitlist email addresses are retained until the user unsubscribes or requests removal.

11. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or through the Service. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
