Clustify - Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 01-04-2026

1. Introduction

Clustify ("we", "our", or "the Extension") is a client-side Chrome Extension designed to help users manage their Gmail inboxes by bulk-trashing unwanted emails based on custom keywords or AI-generated labels. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring your data remains secure.

2. Data We Access and How We Use It

To function, Clustify requests the following Google OAuth permissions:

• identity: To authenticate you with your Google account.
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify: To read email metadata (specifically subject lines for the preview feature) and to move emails to your Trash bin or apply labels.

3. Data Storage and Processing (Client-Side Only)

Clustify operates 100% locally within your web browser.

• No Backend Servers: We do not own, operate, or maintain any backend databases or servers.
• No Data Collection: We do not collect, store, transmit, or sell your emails, email addresses, search keywords, or any personal information to external servers.
• Local Storage: Your OAuth authentication token and your personal Groq API key are stored locally and securely in your browser's local/session storage and are never transmitted to us.

4. Third-Party Services (AI Labeling)

If you choose to use the AI Auto-Label feature, your provided label name (e.g., "Travel Receipts") is sent directly from your browser to the Groq API using your personally provided API key to generate keyword suggestions. Your actual emails are never sent to the AI.

5. Limited Use Disclosure

Clustify's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

6. Changes to this Policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify users by updating the extension in the Chrome Web Store and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document.
