Information we collect

We collect the following types of information when you use the service

1.1. Account Information

When you create an account, we may collect:

  • Basic account details, such as your name, email address, and profile picture (if provided).
  • Credentials for third-party integrations you choose to connect (e.g., Google, GitHub).
  • Subscription plan details and usage history (e.g., AI feature usage and associated costs).
  • Invitation history (e.g., if you invite others to use the Service).

1.2. Usage Data

We collect data about how you interact with the Service to improve its functionality, including:

  • Usage of AI features (e.g., frequency and type of AI tasks performed).
  • Browsing metadata (e.g., timestamps, interactions) usually excludes specific AI content.
  • Technical info like IP address, browser type, OS, and device.

1.3. Local Data

Most of your browsing activity and data processed within the browser remains local to your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless necessary to provide the Service (e.g., for AI feature processing or third-party integrations).

1.4. Third-Party Authentication and Integrations

If you log in using third-party authentication services (e.g., Google, GitHub) or connect third-party tools (e.g., Google, Airtable, Notion, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini), we may collect limited information from those services as permitted by their terms and your privacy settings. For example, we may access your name, email address, or profile information.

1.4.1 Google Workspace API Data

When you connect Google Workspace to our Service, we access your basic account information (e.g., email, profile details) and workspace content (e.g., documents and spreadsheets). This data remains stored locally on your device and is not stored on our servers. We may transmit this data to third-party services (such as AI providers) only when necessary for core browser functionality. We do not use any data obtained through Google Workspace APIs to develop, improve, or train generalized artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) models.

1.5. Feedback and Communications

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or contact us (e.g., via hello@strawberrybrowser.com), we may collect the information you share, including your contact details and the content of your communication.

How we share your information

We don't sell your personal information. We may share it under certain circumstances.

Security

Data storage and security

Local storage

Most of your browsing activity and data processed by the Service remains on your device, reducing the amount of data stored on our servers.

Server storage

Account information and usage data are stored on secure servers with industry-standard security measures (e.g., encryption, access controls) to protect against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to provide the Service, fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or comply with legal obligations. When your information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

Data access and portability

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to receive a copy of your data in a portable format. Contact us to exercise these rights.

Do not track

The Service does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" signals, as there is no universal standard for such signals.

Third-Party services

The Service integrates with various third-party tools and APIs (e.g., Google, Airtable, OpenAI). These services may collect and process your data according to their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the data practices of these third-party services, and we encourage you to review their policies before enabling integrations.

International data transfers

If you are located outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other countries where our servers or service providers are located. We take appropriate measures to ensure that such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses for EU users).

Children's privacy

The Service is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.
