Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the Speller Check GCE Chrome Extension ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our browser extension and associated services.

1. Information We Collect

In order to provide our core grammar, spelling, and translation services, we collect and process the following data:

• Text Content: When you use our extension to check grammar, rewrite, or translate text, the specific text you highlight or submit within text areas is sent to our servers for processing.
• Usage Data & Telemetry (Optional): We may collect anonymized telemetry data reflecting the original text and the corrected text chosen by the user in order to improve the accuracy of our AI models.
• Locally Stored Preferences: The extension stores your user preferences (such as target language, excluded websites, and UI positioning) locally on your device using Chrome local storage. This data is not sent to our servers.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used strictly for the following purposes:

• To provide, maintain, and execute the grammar checking, paraphrasing, and translation features of the extension.
• To return accurate corrections and language suggestions back to your browser.
• To improve the reliability and accuracy of our AI checking models over time.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We are fully committed to your privacy. We comply with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies.

• No Selling of Data: We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data or user content to any third parties.
• No Unrelated Use: We do not use or transfer your data for purposes that are unrelated to the single purpose of the extension (grammar checking and text manipulation).
• No Credit/Lending Use: We do not use or transfer your data for determining creditworthiness or for lending purposes.

4. Data Security

All text data transmitted between the Speller Check GCE extension and our backend API (scgce.kanellatos.gr) is encrypted in transit using industry-standard HTTPS/TLS protocols to ensure that your information cannot be intercepted.

5. Your Choices

You have full control over when the extension operates. You can use the extension's settings to exclude specific websites from being checked. The extension only processes text in active text areas when it is enabled and running.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
