Dysearch Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 2026-10-24
Applies to: Dysearch browser extension version 1.0.0 and later

Dysearch is a locally-running browser extension that opens multiple AI/search sites side by side in a single page. When you explicitly trigger an action, it helps you fill in the same query into the input fields of those sites and submit them, so you can compare results easily.

This policy applies to the Dysearch browser extension (hereinafter referred to as "the Extension").

1. What Information Do We Collect?

We do not collect, operate, or upload any personal or device information to developer-controlled servers.

Specifically, the Extension:

Important distinction: Features you choose to use may still send data directly from your browser to third-party websites or AI API providers (see Sections 4, 5, and 6). That is not collection by the developer, but you should review those third parties' privacy policies.

2. Does the Extension Share Information with Third Parties?

The developer does not sell, rent, or transfer your locally stored data to advertising platforms, data brokers, or other organizations.

However, when you explicitly trigger certain features, your browser may send data directly to third parties:

Triggered by youSent toNot sent to developer server
Search / send queryAI/search sites you selected (e.g., ChatGPT, DeepSeek)Yes
AI one-click summary (after you enter an API Key)The AI provider you configured (e.g., DeepSeek, Kimi, OpenRouter)Yes
Pre-warming (optional, can be disabled)Built-in target sitesYes

The developer does not receive, store, or process the content of those requests on its own servers.

3. What Does the Extension Store Locally? (Local Only)

To provide its features, the Extension stores configuration and usage data in your browser's local storage (e.g., chrome.storage.local), which may include but is not limited to:

All of the above is stored locally on your device only. The Extension does not provide cloud sync by the developer. If you use your browser's own sync, that behavior is governed by your browser/account provider.

Sensitive data note: API Keys you enter for AI summary are stored locally like other settings. Protect your device and avoid sharing exported JSON files that contain keys.

4. Interaction with Third-Party Websites (Only When You Trigger It)

When you use the Extension to open an AI or search site, your browser directly accesses those sites. They may process your data (login status, cookies, content you submit) under their own privacy policies.

Core interactions:

Important: "Not uploaded to the developer's server" does not mean your query stays private on the internet. When you send a query to a third-party site, that site receives it.

5. Content Extraction (Export / Copy — Local Processing)

When you use Export or Copy on the compare page, the Extension may extract readable text from open target pages to build Markdown or clipboard content.

6. AI One-Click Summary (Optional — Third-Party API)

When you configure an AI summary provider and API Key in Settings, you can summarize extracted multi-model answers on the compare page.

Please review your chosen AI provider's terms and privacy policy before entering an API Key or sending sensitive content.

7. Pre-warming Requests (Optional — Can Be Disabled)

To reduce initial load time for some heavy sites, the Extension may send lightweight pre-warming requests to certain built-in sites when you open the popup or overlay.

8. Config Import / Export (Local Files)

Settings allow you to export selected modules (search groups, custom sites, quick-access sites, selection context groups, AI summary settings) to a JSON file, and import them later.

9. Permissions and Usage (Item by Item)

The Extension follows a minimum-necessary permission model. Permissions in the 1.0.0 release include:

9.1 storage

9.2 tabs

9.3 windows

9.4 declarativeNetRequest

Related: the frame-compatibility script (iframe/iframe-frame-compat.js)

Some AI sites detect that they were opened inside a frame and refuse to render, which would leave the card you asked for blank. To keep those cards usable, a small script runs in the page context of frames and:

Scope and limits, stated plainly:

9.5 host_permissions: <all_urls> (and matching content scripts)

9.6 commands (keyboard shortcuts)

9.7 alarms

9.8 contextMenus

10. Updates and Existing Local Data

When you update the Extension through the browser store, your existing local data (prompts, search history, groups, settings, etc.) is generally retained by the browser in chrome.storage.local.

Built-in default presets apply only when corresponding data is missing on first install. Updating does not reset your prompts or history to factory defaults.

Uninstalling the Extension typically removes its local storage.

11. Data Security

Because the developer does not operate a centralized data store for Extension usage, there is no developer-side database breach surface for your Extension data.

Your local data security depends on your device, OS account, browser profile, and which third-party sites/APIs you use.

We recommend:

12. Your Rights and Choices

You may at any time:

13. Children's Privacy

This Extension is not directed at children under 13. The developer does not knowingly collect personal information from children through its own servers. Minors should use the Extension with parental guidance and understand that third-party sites they interact with have their own policies.

14. How This Policy Is Updated

We may update this policy when features or compliance requirements change. The Effective Date at the top will be revised accordingly. Material changes will be noted in release notes or on the extension listing where applicable.
