Privacy Policy

Your privacy is essential to us. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices concerning the collection, use, and sharing of your personal information. By using our extension, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

Data Collection

Personal Data: We collect your first name and email address when you create an account with DocDecoder.

IP Address: We use your IP address for managing rate limiting and preventing spam and potential abuse.

Cookies: Our extension uses cookies solely to keep you logged in. We do not use cookies for tracking, marketing, or any other purposes on the extension. However, our website does use cookies associated with Google Analytics and Google Ads for tracking and marketing purposes, as detailed below.

Google Analytics and Google Ads: We use Google Analytics to collect data about website traffic and usage patterns, and Google Ads to manage our marketing campaigns. These services use cookies and similar technologies to track users across the web. The data collected includes information about your interactions with our website, your device, and browser type, and may include demographic information. You can opt-out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Third-Party Access: The only third parties with potential access to our data are Stripe (for payment processing), MongoDB (our database provider), and Google (for analytics and advertising).

Data Usage

The primary purpose of collecting your data is for user authentication, analytics and advertising. We use Google Analytics and Google Ads to track user behavior and enhance our marketing efforts. We assure you that we do not share your personal data with any third party, excluding necessary interactions with MongoDB, Stripe, and Google.

Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored securely on MongoDB's serverless platform. We prioritize your data's security and ensure that all interactions with our database are authenticated, and all requests made to and from our AWS EC2 servers occur over HTTPS. Data collected by Google Analytics and Google Ads is stored and processed by Google according to their privacy policies.

User Rights

Access and Modification: You have the right to access, modify, or delete your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at support@docdecoder.app.

Data Portability: If you wish to obtain a copy of your data, you can request it by reaching out to support@docdecoder.app.

Data Retention

We retain user account data indefinitely as this is essential for ensuring that user accounts remain active and functional. Data collected through Google Analytics and Google Ads may be retained according to Google's policies.

Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are under 13, please do not use our extension or send any personal data about yourself to us. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible.

Updates to This Policy

We may occasionally update this Privacy Policy. If significant changes are made, we will inform users where required by law. Otherwise, please periodically review this policy for the latest information on our privacy practices.

Compliance with Laws

We operate in compliance with all applicable privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

Additional Notes

While our extension requires access to detect checkboxes on web pages, we emphasize that we NEVER read, store, or record your user activity or the content of any page you visit. You can read the extension's content script on GitHub to verify this yourself.
