Introduction

TL;DR extension provides quick summaries of web pages to enhance your reading experience. This Privacy Policy outlines the privacy practices concerning all information, data, graphics, content, software applications, and other TL;DR extension products or services provided or made accessible through the Software or the Website. Hereinafter, the Software, the Website, and any other TL;DR extension services are referred to as the “Service.”
In this Privacy Policy, “we,” “us,” “our,” and other similar references mean TL;DR Extension, while “you,” “your,” and other similar references refer to any specific user of the Service.


Information Collection and Use

Webpage Content: We process the HTML content of web pages visited to generate summaries using the OpenAI API. We do not store, share, or retain any of this information once the summary is provided. However, OpenAI may retain the data to train its models. We are currently working to ensure that OpenAI implements a zero data retention policy for this project. You can find OpenAI’s privacy policy here. Until a zero data retention policy is in place, users should refrain from using the extension on web pages containing sensitive information. The developer of this extension is not liable for any sensitive data shared with OpenAI. All policy statements following pertain to the extension’s use of data, except for those involving OpenAI API requests.

No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect or use personal information from our users. The TL;DR extension operates without the need to store user data.

Data Processing
Temporary Access: While our extension needs access to the webpage content to function, it does not keep any data after the summary is generated.

Use of Summaries

Accuracy and Reliability: The summaries generated by our extension are based on large language models (LLM) and intended to provide a quick overview of web content. They may not capture all relevant information, and inaccuracies can occur. As such, users are requested to not make any substantial decision based on the summary generated.

Decision Making: Summaries are unsuitable for serious decisions as they might omit critical details. They are best used for casual reading purposes.

User Consent

By using the TL;DR extension, you consent to the processing of webpage content to generate summaries as described in this policy.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

Updates and Changes: We may update this privacy policy from time to time. You are advised to review this policy periodically for any changes.
Notification of Changes: Changes to this policy will be effective when this privacy page is updated.
