InstaAsk is a Chrome extension that allows users to highlight text on a webpage and receive short AI-generated answers. This Privacy Policy explains what information the extension processes and how it is used.
InstaAsk processes only the information necessary to provide its functionality.
When a user highlights text on a webpage and clicks the Ask button, the selected text may be sent to an AI service provider to generate an answer.
This text is only sent when the user explicitly interacts with the extension.
The extension stores the URL of the page where a question was asked so that previously answered questions can be grouped and displayed by website inside the extension popup.
If the user provides an OpenAI API key, it is stored locally in the user’s browser using Chrome’s local storage.
The API key is used only to send requests to the AI service provider.
The API key is never transmitted to the developer.
