Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, and protect your information
Information Collection and Use
This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information across our services, including our website (bossai.com) and our Chrome Extension.
When you browse our website without logging in, we may gather non-personal details about your visit, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, for analytical purposes. This information does not identify you personally.
To use our services, you must create a BossAI account. When you register or contact us, we collect personally identifiable information such as your name and email address. This is necessary to provide our services, process requests, and communicate with you.
Information Collected Through the BossAI Chrome Extension
Our Chrome Extension ("the Extension") is designed with your privacy as a priority and operates with minimal data collection:
- User-Provided API Key: To connect the Extension to your account, you must provide your unique API key from your BossAI dashboard. We use the 'storage' permission to save this key securely in your browser's local storage. The key is transmitted to our servers only to authenticate your requests.
- Content from Web Pages (ChatGPT): The core function of the Extension is to extract Multiple-Choice Questions from the
chat.openai.comdomain. This action is only initiated by you when you click the "Extract to BossAI" button. The extracted text content is then sent to your BossAI account via our secure API. We do not access, read, or store any other content from your browser tabs. - No Collection of Browsing History: The Extension does not track your browsing history, your activity on other websites, or collect any data without your direct and explicit action.
Use and Sharing of Information
We will not sell your personally identifiable data without your permission, except as outlined in this Privacy Policy. The information we receive about you may be used by us or shared with our corporate affiliates, agents, and trusted third-party vendors to provide and improve our services, process your requests, and comply with legal requirements. Specifically for data collected via our Chrome Extension, such as extracted MCQs, this content is stored in your personal BossAI account for your exclusive use and is not shared with any third parties for marketing purposes. We do not share, sell, or rent your personal information to third parties for unknown reasons.
Cookies
We may place "cookies" on your computer. Cookies are small identifiers sent from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive that help us recognize you upon revisiting our website and understand how you use our services. We do not use cookies to store or transmit sensitive personal information over the Internet. You can accept or decline cookies by modifying your browser settings, though declining may affect the functionality of certain site features.
Links
Our website may contain links to other sites. Our Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of such other sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices and encourage you to read the individual privacy statements of any third-party websites you visit.
Security
We safeguard your privacy using recognized security standards and procedures. Our services combine industry-approved physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your information. Sensitive data is hashed or encrypted when stored in our infrastructure. We host our web services in audited data centers with restricted access to protect your data throughout its lifecycle.
Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:
- Right to Access: You can request copies of your personal data.
- Right to Rectification: You can request that we correct or complete any information you believe is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Right to Erasure: You can request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You can request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
- Right to Object to Processing: You can object to our processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
- Right to Data Portability: You can request that we transfer the data we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
AI and Machine Learning
BossAI uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to provide our educational services. Here's how we handle your data in relation to these technologies:
- Content Processing: When you submit content for AI processing (such as text for quiz generation), we process this data to provide the requested services.
- No Training on User Data: We are committed to your privacy. We do not use your personal or professional content to train our AI models.
- Third-Party AI Services: To provide some of our features, we may send your prompts or content to third-party AI services (such as the OpenAI API). When we do this, we are bound by their data usage policies, which prohibit them from training their models on your API-submitted data. Your content is processed and then returned to you; it is not used for any other purpose by these providers.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including providing our services, resolving disputes, and complying with legal obligations. You may delete your account and associated data at any time from your account settings.
Children's Privacy
Our services are intended for professional educators and are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately so we can take steps to remove such information.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
