Privacy Policy for 8-Fold Clipper
Effective Date: 1 September, 2025
8-Fold Clipper (“the Extension”) is provided by 8-Fold (“we,” “our,” “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how the Extension handles information when you use it.
1. Information We Collect
- Page Content (HTML): When you explicitly use the Extension (via the popup window or right-click context menu), the HTML content of the active browser tab is collected and securely sent to our servers at 8-fold.io.
- No Background Collection: The Extension does not automatically collect or monitor browsing history, cookies, or any other data in the background.
- Account Information: If you are logged into your 8-Fold account, the clipped content may be stored and associated with your account.
2. How We Use the Information
- To process the clipped content into a clean, readable version.
- To save the processed content to your 8-Fold account, so you can access it later.
- To improve the reliability and performance of the service.
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
3. Data Retention
- Content you clip is stored in your 8-Fold account until you delete it.
- We do not retain any other browsing data beyond what you choose to clip.
4. Permissions
The Extension requires permission to access the current tab’s content only when you activate it. These permissions are necessary to allow clipping functionality.
5. Security
We use industry-standard encryption (HTTPS/TLS) to transmit data between the Extension and our servers. Access to your saved content is protected by your 8-Fold account credentials.
6. User Control
- You control when content is clipped—nothing happens automatically.
- You can delete saved content from your 8-Fold account at any time.
- You may uninstall the Extension at any time to stop all data collection.
7. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our services evolve. If we make material changes, we will update the “Effective Date” above and, where appropriate, notify you through our website or the Chrome Web Store listing.
