This Privacy Policy describes how img2txt ("the Extension") handles your data. By "we," we mean the developer of this extension.

By installing and using img2txt, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. How img2txt Processes Data

2.1 OCR (Text Extraction from Images)

When you use the OCR feature to extract text from image:

1. You select and capture a portion of a webpage
2. The captured image is sent directly to OCR.space (a third-party service) for text recognition via HTTPS (encrypted connection)
3. OCR.space processes the image and returns the extracted text to your browser
4. We do not store the captured image or the extracted text
5. No server of ours is involved in this process

2.2 QR Code Detection

QR code detection is performed entirely locally in your browser using WebAssembly (zbar library):

• All processing happens on your device
• No data is sent to any external servers

3. What img2txt Does Not Collect

• No Tracking: We do not track your usage or behavior
• No Analytics: We do not collect any analytics data
• No Data Storage: We do not store captured images or extracted text
• No Third-Party Services: Other than OCR.space (for OCR only), we do not integrate with any analytics platforms, advertising networks, or data brokers

4. Your Rights

Since we do not collect or store any personal data, there is no data for us to access, modify, or delete. If you wish to remove the extension, simply uninstall it from Firefox.

5. Disclaimer

The extension is provided "as is" without any warranty of any kind. While we implement reasonable measures to protect your privacy, no system is completely secure. When using the OCR feature, you acknowledge that images are sent to a third-party service (OCR.space). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of OCR.space or any other third-party services.
