At Universal Study Buddy, we believe your data is yours. We prioritize absolute transparency and security in every AI-powered summary we generate.
Website Content: When you trigger the extension, text and image data are sent directly to Google's Gemini-2.5-Flash API via a secure connection. We do NOT store your browsing data or analysis results on our servers.
Personal Info: We securely store your email through Stripe for subscription verification. We never sell, rent, or share your identity with third parties.
Your Gemini API Key and your curated Study Notes are stored exclusively on your device using chrome.storage.local. We never have access to your private keys.
Our infrastructure relies on trusted global leaders: Google (AI Analysis), Stripe (Payment Processing), and Cloudflare (Backend Infrastructure). Each partner adheres to the highest industry standards for data protection.
