1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in the following products and services (collectively, “Services”):

• The EchoLog website at https://echologai.com.
• The JSON Formatter tool at https://jsonformatter.echologai.com.
• The Chrome extension EchoLog AI Voice Assistant.

By using any of these Services, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Website Data (echologai.com)

Our main website provides information about EchoLog, our products, and our mission. We do not directly collect personally identifiable information from casual visitors unless you choose to contact us or otherwise provide information (for example, via linked forms such as Google Forms or Calendly). Any information you submit through those third-party services is handled according to their respective privacy policies.

We may collect basic, non-identifying information automatically, such as your browser type, device type, and general interaction with the website (for example, which pages are visited). This information is used to maintain and improve the website experience.

3. JSON Formatter Tool (jsonformatter.echologai.com)

The JSON Formatter tool allows you to paste, format, and validate JSON data in your browser.

• Your JSON input is processed locally in your browser. We do not send your JSON data to any server or external API.
• We may use basic, browser-level storage (such as local storage or session storage) only to temporarily cache your recent inputs or preferences to improve your experience. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to us.
• We do not store, log, or retain your JSON content on our servers.

4. Chrome Extension: EchoLog AI Voice Assistant

The EchoLog AI Voice Assistant Chrome extension is committed to protecting your privacy. This section explains how the extension handles data.

4.1 Data Collection

We do not collect, store, or share personal or sensitive user data from the extension for our own purposes. The extension operates primarily on your local device, and no data is transmitted to our own servers.

To understand and respond to voice commands, the extension may send transient voice data or text transcripts to large language model APIs (such as Gemini APIs) solely for intent understanding. These APIs are used to process your commands and return responses. We do not build profiles or store this data for tracking purposes.

4.2 Permissions

The Chrome extension may request permissions such as microphone access to process voice commands. Microphone input is used only to capture your commands so the extension can perform the requested actions. The data is processed temporarily and is not recorded or stored by us.

4.3 Third-Party Services (Extension)

Apart from the AI APIs used to interpret your commands, we do not use additional third-party analytics or advertising within the Chrome extension. Your activity within the extension remains focused on providing assistive functionality.

5. Advertising and Cookies (Google AdSense)

Our websites, including https://echologai.com and https://jsonformatter.echologai.com, may display advertisements served by Google AdSense and its partners.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to our sites and/or other websites on the Internet.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our sites and/or other sites.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings. In some regions, you may also have additional controls through local consent tools or browser settings.

We do not have access to, or control over, the cookies that are used by third-party advertisers. Their activities are governed by their own privacy policies.

6. Cookies and Local Storage

Our Services may use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage or session storage) to:

• Remember your preferences (for example, theme or recent inputs in the JSON Formatter tool).
• Improve the functionality and user experience of the site.
• Support advertising as described in the Google AdSense section above.

You can typically control or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain parts of the site, including personalized ad experiences.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data only in the following situations:

• With service providers or partners (such as advertising networks or AI APIs) solely to operate and provide our Services.
• When required by law, regulation, or legal process.
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of EchoLog, our users, or the public.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
