We take your privacy seriously
We do not sell, share, rent or exchange your information with anyone else. When we do collect data, we will use it to benefit you and to make your experiences better.
This Privacy Policy explains how the RapidText Chrome extension ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information. This extension is a text expander designed to save users time by allowing them to create and use shortcuts for their most-used text and phrases.
The extension stores 'snippets' that you create. These snippets are user-generated content and can include any text, rich formatting, or images you choose to save. For anonymous users, this data is stored only in the browser's sync storage. For logged-in users, we collect your email address and user ID for authentication, and your snippets are stored securely on our backend servers to enable cloud sync functionality.
In the future, if paid features are introduced (e.g., billing or premium services), we may collect additional data such as financial and payment information or authentication information (e.g., login credentials). Any new data collection will be disclosed in an updated version of this policy and require your consent where applicable.
The collected information is used solely to:
For future paid features, additional data may be used for billing, account management, or enhancing premium services, with details provided in future policy updates. No data is shared with third parties unless required for payment processing (e.g., via a secure third-party provider), and only with your consent.
For anonymous (non-logged-in) users, all snippet data is stored using the Chrome browser's sync storage. For logged-in users, your snippets are stored securely on our backend servers (Google Firestore) and are also cached in your browser's local storage for faster performance. Your authentication information is managed via our secure backend.
We implement reasonable security measures to protect the data stored locally on your device. For future paid features, additional security measures will be applied to protect any data handled by third-party services. The security of data on your device remains your responsibility based on your device's settings.
You can manage or delete saved snippets through the extension's popup interface or the web dashboard. Disabling reminders or clearing storage will stop further data processing by the extension. For paid features, you will have the option to manage or withdraw consent for additional data collection.
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, including the introduction of paid features, or for legal reasons. Updates will be posted here with a revised "Last Updated" date and, if significant, may require resubmission to the Chrome Web Store. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
