Privacy Policy for Havelock In Chrome

Last updated: February 2, 2026

Havelock In Chrome is a Chrome extension that analyzes highlighted text and returns an orality score.

What this extension accesses

The extension accesses only the text that a user has highlighted at the time the user clicks the extension action button.

This can include highlighted text from:

• webpage content
• input fields
• textareas
• supported editable text surfaces in web apps

What is sent off-device

When the user clicks the extension action, the extension sends highlighted text to the analysis API endpoint:

• https://thestalwart-havelock-demo.hf.space/gradio_api/call/analyze
• https://thestalwart-havelock-demo.hf.space/gradio_api/call/analyze/{event_id}

The extension does not automatically send text in the background without user action.

How data is used

Highlighted text is used only to request an orality analysis score and related analysis output, which is then shown in the extension popup panel.

Data storage and retention

• The extension does not store highlighted text in Chrome extension storage.
• The extension does not create user accounts or user profiles.
• The extension source code is open source.

Server-side retention for API requests is controlled by the API operator, not by the browser extension itself.

Data sharing

• The extension shares highlighted text only with the configured analysis API endpoint listed above.
• The extension does not sell personal data.

Permissions explanation

• activeTab: temporary access to the current tab only after user click.
• scripting: injects code at click time to read highlighted text and render the result panel.
• host_permissions for https://thestalwart-havelock-demo.hf.space/*: allows API requests to the analysis service.

Your choices

• Do not highlight sensitive text if you do not want it analyzed remotely.
• Remove the extension at any time from chrome://extensions.
