PromptForge

Privacy Policy

TL;DR: PromptForge collects no personal data, sends no data to PromptForge servers, and stores everything — including your API keys — locally on your device only.

1. Overview

PromptForge ("the Extension") is a browser extension for Google Chrome that helps you convert LLM chat conversations into structured development prompts. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Extension accesses, how it is used, and what safeguards are in place.

2. Data We Collect

We collect no personal data. PromptForge does not operate any servers, does not have a user account system, and does not transmit any information to the developer.

The Extension only stores data locally on your device using Chrome's built-in chrome.storage.local API:

Storage KeyWhat is storedWhere it goes
promptforge_settings Generation mode, preferred AI provider, selected model Local device only
promptforge_api_keys API keys for OpenAI / Anthropic / Google / Groq (entered by you) Local device only
promptforge_prompts Prompts you choose to save Local device only
promptforge_library Custom prompt snippets you add to your library Local device only
promptforge_meta_prompt Custom system prompt (optional) Local device only

3. API Keys and Third-Party AI Services

When you use AI-Enhanced generation mode, the Extension sends your conversation text and your API key directly from your browser to the selected AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or Groq). This communication is:

Your API keys are stored only in chrome.storage.local on your own device and are never transmitted to PromptForge or any third party other than the AI provider you select.

4. Permissions Justification

5. Host Permissions

The Extension requests access to the following API domains solely to make AI generation requests on your behalf:

No requests are made to these endpoints without your explicit action (clicking "Generate").

6. Analytics and Tracking

PromptForge contains no analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry, and no tracking of any kind.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share any data with any third party because we do not collect any data.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

All data is stored locally in your browser profile. You can delete it at any time by:

9. Children's Privacy

PromptForge is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect any information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes materially, we will update the "Last updated" date below and increment the extension version. Continued use of the Extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
