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.
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.
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 Key | What is stored | Where 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 |
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.
| Permission | Why it is needed |

Read the active tab's URL to determine which LLM platform the user is on. |

Copy generated prompts to the clipboard when the user clicks "Copy". |
sidePanel |
Open the PromptForge UI in Chrome's native side panel. |

Detect when the user navigates to or away from a supported LLM platform. |
webNavigation |
Re-initialise the content script after in-page navigation (SPAs like ChatGPT). |
The Extension requests access to the following API domains solely to make AI generation requests on your behalf:
https://api.openai.com/*https://api.anthropic.com/*https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/*https://api.groq.com/*No requests are made to these endpoints without your explicit action (clicking "Generate").
PromptForge contains no analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry, and no tracking of any kind.
We do not sell, rent, or share any data with any third party because we do not collect any data.
All data is stored locally in your browser profile. You can delete it at any time by:
chrome.storage.local data.chrome://settings/clearBrowserData.PromptForge is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect any information from children.
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.
