Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to CaptureVault, including the CaptureVault Chrome extension and the CaptureVault website. CaptureVault only captures content when you intentionally start a capture or recording.
Overview
CaptureVault is a Chrome extension that helps users create visual bug reports. Users can capture screenshots or screen recordings, add annotations and comments, and submit those reports to connected services such as Google Drive, Google Sheets, GitHub, and Jira.
CaptureVault is designed as a bridge to the platforms you already use. We do not view your captures as a product operator browsing your content, and we do not sell your screenshots, recordings, or report contents. Captures go to destinations you choose. CaptureVault only captures content when you intentionally start a capture or recording.
This Privacy Policy explains what information CaptureVault collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
Account information: When you connect Google, GitHub, or Jira, CaptureVault may access basic account details such as your email address, name, username, avatar, and account identifier so the extension can show the connected account and submit reports to your selected destinations.
Authentication information: CaptureVault uses OAuth access tokens to connect to those platforms. CaptureVault does not collect or store your account passwords. For Google, CaptureVault requests the limited drive.file scope and uses Google Picker so you explicitly choose which spreadsheet and Drive folder CaptureVault may access.
Capture content: Screenshots, screen recordings, annotations, comments, and report fields are processed on your device and sent only to the destinations you select when you submit. CaptureVault does not keep a media library of your captures on our servers.
AI fill (optional): If you use AI autofill, the annotated screenshot and field schema are sent securely to generate field suggestions. That content is used to draft suggestions for that request and is not sold or stored as your capture archive.
Settings and preferences: CaptureVault stores extension settings such as selected spreadsheet, Drive folder, repositories/projects, labels, and capture preferences — primarily in your browser.
Account state: CaptureVault may store account identifiers needed to sign you in and connect destinations. We do not collect payment card details.
How We Use Information
To provide CaptureVault's single purpose: creating and submitting visual bug reports.
To capture screenshots or screen recordings only after you start a capture.
To upload selected captures to Google Drive and create rows in Google Sheets when you choose that destination.
To create issues in GitHub or Jira when you choose those destinations.
To generate optional AI field suggestions when you request AI fill.
To save your settings so you do not need to reconnect or reconfigure the extension each time.
To troubleshoot errors, improve reliability, and respond to support requests.
Information Sharing
CaptureVault does not sell user data.
CaptureVault does not transfer user data for purposes unrelated to its visual bug reporting purpose.
CaptureVault acts as a bridge: we send data only to services you connect or use as part of the workflow, including Google APIs, GitHub APIs, Jira/Atlassian APIs, optional AI model providers for autofill, and Supabase.
Google Drive and Google Sheets receive captures and report data only when you submit to Google destinations. CaptureVault does not browse or sync your entire Drive; it operates on the spreadsheet and folder you select through Google Picker.
GitHub and Jira receive issue content and attachments only when you submit to those destinations.
Supabase may be used for account state.
We may disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and security, or to prevent abuse.
Chrome Extension Permissions
activeTab: Used temporarily when you start a capture from the current tab.
scripting: Used to run the region selection and capture helper after you initiate a screenshot capture.
tabs: Used to open and manage CaptureVault extension pages such as capture, annotation, settings, and success pages.
storage: Used to save settings and preferences locally in Chrome storage.
identity and identity.email: Used for Google authentication and to show the connected Google account.
Host permissions: Used to support user-initiated captures and communicate with required services such as Google, GitHub, and Supabase.
Remote Code
CaptureVault does not load or execute remote JavaScript or WebAssembly as part of the extension. Extension code is bundled with the extension package. Network requests are used only to communicate with APIs and services needed for the visual bug reporting workflow.
Data Storage and Retention
Extension settings are stored locally in Chrome storage unless they are needed by connected backend services for account state.
Captures submitted to Google Drive, Google Sheets, GitHub Issues, or GitHub Projects are retained according to the settings and policies of those services and your accounts with them.
You can delete submitted captures or reports from Google or GitHub directly from those services.
You may disconnect Google or GitHub in CaptureVault settings. You may also request deletion of account-related data by contacting us.
Security
CaptureVault uses OAuth where available and does not ask for your Google or GitHub password.
Access tokens are used only to perform actions you request, such as uploading a capture, updating a sheet, or creating a GitHub issue.
No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect data used by the extension.
Your Choices
You can choose whether to submit a capture to Google Sheets, GitHub, both, or download it locally.
You can disconnect Google or GitHub from CaptureVault settings.
You can remove the extension from Chrome at any time.
You can request access, correction, or deletion of account-related data by contacting us.
Children's Privacy
CaptureVault is not directed to children under 13 and is intended for productivity, QA, product, and development workflows. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as CaptureVault changes. When we make material updates, we will update the effective date on this page.
