Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 29, 2025

Ilmagora ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is collected, used, and disclosed by Ilmagora in relation to our browser extension and associated services (collectively, the "Service").

1. Information We Collect

We collect information only to provide the research utility described in our Service.

  • Information You Provide: If you create an account, we may collect your name and email address to manage your preferences and freemium limits.
  • Extension-Specific Data (YouTube™ Content): At your direct request, the Service extracts transcripts and comments from YouTube™ videos. This data is processed to facilitate your research and is not stored on Ilmagora servers.
  • Automatic Data Collection: We collect standard technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, and how you interact with our sidebar, to ensure the Service functions correctly across different AI chat interfaces.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information for the following business purposes:

  • Providing the Service: To extract and format video data into your AI chat workflow.
  • Service Improvement: To troubleshoot technical issues and maintain the security of the extension.
  • Safety & Compliance: To prevent illegal activities and comply with our legal obligations.

3. Disclosing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We only share information in the following limited cases:

  • User-Directed AI Platforms: When you use the extension to "inject" a transcript into an AI chat (e.g., ChatGPT), you are directing us to share that specific content with that third-party platform.
  • Service Providers: We may use third-party tools for basic analytics or storage of your user preferences.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users.

4. International Data Transfers

Information processed by us is primarily stored within the European Union. In some cases, data may be transferred to other countries with appropriate safeguards in place. By using the Service, you consent to the transfer and processing of your information in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

5. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location (such as the EEA or California), you have the right to:

  • Access, Correct, or Delete your personal information.
  • Withdraw Consent for data processing at any time.

To exercise these rights, contact us at the email provided below.

6. Security & Data Retention

We take reasonable steps to treat your information securely. We store your account information only for as long as you use the Service. Transcript data is not retained on our servers.

7. Third-Party Websites (YouTube™ and AI Chats)

The Service interacts with YouTube™ and your preferred AI chat interface. These third-party services are not controlled by us. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of Google (YouTube) and your AI provider.

8. Children's Information

The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
