Effective Date: March 26, 2026
At FormFill AI, privacy is built into our architecture. Because our extension operates almost entirely on your local device, our data collection practices are minimal. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is handled when you use the FormFill AI browser extension.
1. Data We Do Not Collect
FormFill AI operates on a "zero-knowledge" basis regarding your personal and professional information. We do NOT collect, transmit, store, or sell:
- Your name, email, phone number, address, or any other profile data.
- Your resume, cover letters, or any documents you upload to the extension.
- Your API keys (including your OpenAI API key).
- The contents of the forms you fill out.
- Your browsing history or the URLs of the websites you visit.
2. How Your Data is Stored Locally
All profile data, resumes, settings, and API keys are stored exclusively in your browser's local storage (`browser.storage.local`). For added security, you may optionally protect your OpenAI API key with a PIN, which encrypts the key at rest using PBKDF2 and AES-256 encryption. If you uninstall the extension or clear your browser data, this information is permanently deleted from your device.
3. Interaction with Third-Party APIs (OpenAI)
FormFill AI functions by communicating directly from your browser to OpenAI's API. When you trigger a form fill or resume parse:
- The extension sends the necessary context (e.g., relevant parts of your profile, the webpage text, and the form schema) directly to OpenAI.
- This communication bypasses our servers completely.
- You are subject to OpenAI's data usage and retention policies. By using your own API key, your requests are generally not used by OpenAI to train their models (subject to OpenAI's standard API terms).
4. Analytics and Telemetry
We do not use any telemetry, tracking pixels, or product analytics inside the extension. We do not know how often you use the extension, which features you use, or any errors you encounter.
5. Open Source Transparency
The core logic of FormFill AI is open source, allowing independent developers and security researchers to verify these privacy claims by inspecting our codebase.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this policy and provide notice through the extension or our website.
