This Privacy Policy explains how Obserra (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects your data when you use the Obserra extension (“Extension”). By installing or using the Extension, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Introduction
The Obserra Firefox extension is designed to help you manage your YouTube viewing habits by tracking certain usage data. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that only data essential for the functionality of the Extension is collected and processed.

2. Information We Collect
Usage Data:
YouTube Viewing Information: Video Name, Channel, and Watch Duration: The Extension collects data on the videos you watch on YouTube.

This data is used to:
- Provide personalized insights on your viewing habits.
- Display activity on your user dashboard.
- Ensure you do not exceed your preset usage limits.

Processing Data
Genre Determination: The Extension uses a private language model (LLM) to analyze video titles and determine the video genre. No query data is stored or logged as part of this process.

Technical Data: Data necessary for the Extension’s operation may be stored locally on your device to support settings synchronization across devices. This information is only used to ensure a consistent and functional user experience.

3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information solely for purposes essential to the functionality of the Extension, including:
- Personalized Insights: To generate reports and insights on your YouTube usage.
- Activity Tracking: To monitor your activity and enforce your set viewing limits.
- Performance Improvement: To analyze how the Extension is used and improve its features.

We do not share your personal data with third parties beyond what is necessary for payment processing or legal compliance.

4. Data Storage and Security
Local Storage: The Extension stores essential data locally on your device. This includes your settings and usage information needed for the Extension’s functionality.

Data Protection: We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access or disclosure. While no method of data storage or transmission is completely foolproof, we work continuously to maintain the security and integrity of your information.

5. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as it is necessary to provide the functionality of the Extension and in compliance with our legal obligations. If you disable or uninstall the Extension, the data stored locally may be deleted based on your device’s settings or upon your request.

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure
Third-Party Services: The Extension does not transmit your YouTube usage data to external analytics or tracking services. Any data shared with third parties (for example, payment processors) is limited to what is essential for that specific function.

7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access: Request a copy of the data the Extension has collected.
- Correction: Ask for corrections to any inaccurate data.
- Deletion: Request deletion of your data, subject to technical limitations and legal obligations.
