Browser Extension

Privacy Policy

The AI Predicts Bitcoin browser extension is designed to be radically privacy-respecting. This page documents exactly what data the extension touches, in plain language.

Last updated: 2026-05-20
TL;DR

The extension collects no personal data, sends no telemetry, and contacts only one server โ€” our own site, www.aipredictsbitcoin.com, to read the day's public prediction numbers. No request body, no cookies, no identifiers. Your only stored data is which target year you've chosen to display, kept in chrome.storage.local on your own device.

01 โ€” What we collect

Personal data collected: none

The extension does not collect, transmit, or store any personally identifiable information. We do not have a server that receives data from your browser. There is no analytics SDK, no telemetry endpoint, no error reporting service. The extension's code runs entirely on your device.

02 โ€” What we store locally

One preference, on your device

When you choose a target year (e.g. 2030, 2050) using the year dropdown in the popup, that single preference is saved in your browser's local extension storage (chrome.storage.local). It never leaves your device. We do not have access to it. Uninstalling the extension removes it.

A second flag remembers whether you've dismissed the first-install welcome banner, so it doesn't reappear on every popup open. Same scope โ€” local to your browser, not transmitted anywhere.

03 โ€” Network requests

One request, to one URL, for a public file

When you open the popup (and twice per day when the browser refreshes the toolbar badge), the extension issues a single GET request to https://www.aipredictsbitcoin.com/extension-data.json. That URL serves a small static JSON file containing the day's prediction numbers โ€” exactly the same numbers anyone can see on the website. We do not log the contents of these requests beyond the standard server-access logs Vercel keeps for any HTTP traffic.

No other server is contacted. No price feeds, no analytics endpoints, no third-party CDNs. If the request fails (offline, server down), the extension falls back to a cached copy in chrome.storage.local, and if that's missing, to a bundled JSON snapshot from when you installed.

04 โ€” Permissions explained

Why we ask for what we ask for

storage

Used solely to remember your chosen target year and the welcome-banner dismissal flag, on your device. We do not use synced storage; nothing crosses to other browsers or devices.

alarms

Schedules a periodic re-render of the toolbar badge (twice per day) so the price stays current. Each refresh issues the same single request to our site described in section 03 โ€” nothing else.

host permission: https://www.aipredictsbitcoin.com/*

Scoped to a single domain we own โ€” and used for exactly one path: /extension-data.json. The extension cannot read your traffic to or from this site (or any other site). It can only initiate requests of its own, and only to this one URL.

The extension does not request tabs, activeTab, cookies, host permissions for any other URL, or any other permission. It cannot read the pages you visit or interact with your browsing in any way.

05 โ€” Third parties

No third parties involved

No analytics services. No ad networks. No SDKs from anyone. The extension's code is written by us, runs on your device, and talks to no one.

06 โ€” Children

Not directed at children

The extension is not directed at children under 13. Because no personal data is collected from anyone, no special handling applies. The site itself (aipredictsbitcoin.com) is intended for general audiences interested in technology and finance.

07 โ€” Changes

If this policy changes

If we update this privacy policy, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change. We will not retroactively alter the extension's behavior to start collecting data without first updating this page and clearly notifying users.
