1. Introduction
AI Dubbing ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our Chrome extension.
Summary: AI Dubbing processes video subtitles locally and through secure API calls to provide dubbing services. We do not collect, store, or sell your personal information.
2. Information We Access
To provide the dubbing functionality, our extension accesses:
- Video Subtitles/Captions: We read subtitle data from supported video platforms (YouTube, Udemy, Vimeo, LinkedIn Learning, etc.) to translate and generate dubbed audio.
- User Preferences: Language settings, voice preferences, and volume levels are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API.
3. How We Use Information
The information accessed is used solely for:
- Translating video subtitles to your selected language
- Generating AI-powered dubbed audio
- Saving your preferences for future use
4. Data Storage
All user preferences and settings are stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage API. We do not maintain external databases containing user information.
5. Third-Party Services
To provide translation and text-to-speech services, subtitle text may be sent to AI processing APIs. This data is:
- Transmitted securely using encrypted connections
- Not stored permanently by the service
- Used only to generate the translated audio
