Introduction
Ask AYO (“we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our Chrome extension.
Information We Collect
When you use the Ask AYO Chrome extension, we collect:
- Financial terms you look up: We record which terms users search for to improve our explanations and identify commonly confusing terms.
- Anonymous session identifiers: We generate a random session ID that resets daily. This helps us understand usage patterns without identifying individual users.
- Feedback responses: When you click the thumbs up or thumbs down button, we record this to improve our AI explanations.
Information We Do NOT Collect
- Personal information (name, email, address)
- Browsing history or websites you visit
- Any text other than the specific terms you highlight and look up
- Cookies or tracking across websites
How We Use Information
We use the collected information to:
- Provide AI-powered explanations of financial terms
- Improve the quality and accuracy of our explanations
- Identify which financial terms are most confusing to users
- Analyse aggregate usage patterns (not individual behaviour)
Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored securely on our servers. We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect against unauthorised access, alteration, or destruction of data.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to third parties. We may share anonymous, aggregated statistics about term lookups for research or educational purposes.
Your Rights
Since we don't collect personal information, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. If you have questions about our data practices, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by updating the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
