Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 21, 2026

1. Overview

poitoko consists of a web app and a Chrome extension. This policy covers both.

2. What We Collect

Content you explicitly save:

  • The selected text you choose to save
  • The URL and title of the page where you saved it
  • Page metadata: article title, author, and preview image, sourced from the page's meta tags
  • Kindle highlights when you use the Kindle Sync feature

Account data:

  • Your email address and user ID, obtained at login via Google or Apple
  • An authentication token, stored locally on your device

Usage metadata attached to each save:

  • Timestamp of when the highlight was saved
  • How you saved it (context menu, keyboard shortcut, or button)

3. What We Do NOT Collect

  • We do not read or record pages you merely browse — the extension only accesses page content when you actively trigger a save
  • We do not track your browsing history
  • We do not sell your data to third parties

4. How We Use Your Data

Your data is used solely to provide the poitoko service: storing and organizing your personal highlights, powering search, and generating AI-assisted features (like analysis and tag suggestions) when you request them.

To provide some of these features, your highlight text may be processed by third-party AI services. This processing is used only to power poitoko features and is not used for advertising or sold.

9. Children's Privacy

poitoko is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

We will update this page if our data practices change. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance.
