Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 31, 2026
At NoteKitLM ("we," "our," or "us"), we respect and are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome extension handles your data.
Short version: We do not verify your identity, we do not require a separate account, and we do not store your content on our servers. Your data flows directly from your browser to Google NotebookLM.
1. Data Collection and Usage
The NoteKitLM extension relies almost entirely on existing Google NotebookLM functionality.
- No Separate Account: You do not need to create a NoteKitLM account. The extension uses your existing Google session to interact with NotebookLM.
- Direct Communication: All content you choose to save (webpages, PDFs, YouTube videos) is sent directly from your browser to Google's servers (`notebooklm.google.com`). We do not act as a middleman and cannot access this content.
- Local Settings: We use the `chrome.storage.local` API to store preferences (such as your last selected notebook ID) locally in your browser. This data never leaves your device.
2. Permissions Explained
We only request the minimum set of permissions necessary to provide our features:
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
| sidePanel | Allows the application interface to be shown in the browser side panel. |
| storage | Stores your preferences and last selected notebook locally. |
| activeTab | Gathers the current page URL and title when you click the collect button. |
| scripting | Executes content extraction scripts on complex pages like Notion. |
| offscreen | Used for PDF generation processing via an offscreen page. |
| declarativeNetRequest | Handles cross-origin requests so the interface works in different environments. |
| downloads | Allows downloading generated Studio artifacts to your device. |
3. Third-party Services
Google NotebookLM: This extension
is a companion tool for Google NotebookLM. Your use
of NotebookLM itself is subject to Google's own
terms of service and privacy policy.
Supabase & Creem: We use Supabase
for authentication management and Creem for
subscription and payment processing. These services
only handle your login state and subscription info
and do not touch your NotebookLM data.
4. Policy Changes
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.
