Chat Copier (“the Extension”, “we”) is a Chrome side-panel tool that lets you copy conversations from ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, optionally summarise them with Google Gemini, and paste them back into any active tab. We respect your privacy: the Extension runs entirely in your browser and never transmits personal or sensitive data to us or to third parties.
Data | Source / Storage | Purpose | Retention |
---|---|---|---|
Conversation text you copy | Extracted from the visible page; stored only in side-panel preview and (optionally) your clipboard | Allows copy → preview → paste workflow | Cleared when you press Clear, close the panel, or quit Chrome |
Gemini API key & default model (optional) | Entered by you; saved in chrome.storage.sync | Needed for Google Gemini calls when you press Summarise + Paste | Until you delete or overwrite the key in Settings |
Remembered AI-tab IDs & URLs | Chrome tabs API; stored in chrome.storage.local | Lets you paste into the correct AI tab later | Removed automatically when the tab closes or when you uninstall the Extension |
We share no data with any server or third-party service. If you use the Gemini feature, your browser sends the conversation text to Google’s Gemini API over HTTPS; that request is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy.
