Privacy Policy for ActionPilot
Introduction
ActionPilot ("we", "our", or "the extension") is a privacy-first browser extension that helps you organize your online activities by suggesting smart actions based on webpage content. This Privacy Policy explains how ActionPilot handles your data.
Key Principle: Your data stays on your device. ActionPilot is built on a local-first architecture.
