Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Skill Recorder is designed to operate locally. The extension processes the following on your device:

• Recorded Actions: Clicks, keystrokes, navigations, and DOM snapshots from flows you explicitly start recording. Stored locally in your browser's IndexedDB.
• Distilled Skills: The SKILL.md files you generate. Stored locally until you export or delete them.
• Anonymous Telemetry: Basic event counts (e.g., "recording started", "skill exported") to help us improve the product. No page content, no auth tokens, no PII.

Skill Recorder does not collect passwords, payment information, or any page content from sessions you have not explicitly recorded.

2. How We Use Your Information

Information processed by Skill Recorder is used solely to:

• Reconstruct a faithful replay of the flow you recorded.
• Run the distillation pipeline that turns a raw recording into a clean SKILL.md.
• Enable export of the SKILL.md file to your filesystem when you click Download.
• Improve product usability through anonymized event counts.

We do not use your data for advertising, behavioural profiling, or cross-site tracking.

3. Data Storage and Retention

• Local Storage: Recordings, distilled skills, and preferences live in your browser's IndexedDB and chrome.storage. They remain on your device until you delete them.
• No Cloud Sync: Skill Recorder does not upload your recordings to any server. There is no account, no cloud history, no shared workspace.

You may clear all locally stored data at any time through the extension's settings or by uninstalling the extension.

4. Third-Party Services

Skill Recorder does not send recording data to third parties. The only network calls the extension makes are to:

These calls do not include any page content or recorded actions.

• Update Check: Chrome Web Store, to receive extension updates.
• Telemetry: An anonymized analytics endpoint, used only to count opt-in events. Disabled if you opt out.

5. Extension Permissions

Skill Recorder requests the following permissions to operate:

• activeTab: Access the tab you explicitly choose to record.
• scripting: Inject the content script that captures clicks, keystrokes, and navigations during a recording.
• storage: Persist recordings and distilled skills locally on your device.
• sidePanel: Open the recording sidepanel that lists your captured flows.

6. Data Security

Because all data stays on your device, the surface area is limited to your browser's local storage. We implement reasonable measures to prevent injection from untrusted page content into the recording pipeline.

7. Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
