Privacy Policy

Last updated: 7/31/2025

Introduction

Welcome to Content Forge ("we", "our", "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our application.

Information We Collect

We believe in minimizing data collection. The information we handle includes:

  • API Keys: To use our service, you must provide your own Google Gemini API key. This key is stored only in your browser's local storage. It is never sent to our servers, and we do not have access to it. It is used exclusively to make direct API calls to Google from your browser.
  • Locally Stored Data: To improve your experience, we may store your work-in-progress, such as titles, outlines, and generated content, in your browser's local storage. This data is also stored only on your device and is not transmitted to our servers or collected by us.
  • Anonymous Usage Data: We may automatically collect anonymous usage data (such as your IP address, browser type, and operating system) when you access the Service for analytical purposes to improve our platform.

The "Bring Your Own Key" model is fundamental to our privacy promise. It ensures that you have full control over your AI interactions and costs, and that your sensitive credentials remain private to you.

Future Use of Information

Please note that we plan to integrate third-party services in the future, which may affect how your data is handled:

  • Google AdSense: We may use Google AdSense to display ads. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings.
  • Google Analytics: We may use Google Analytics to monitor and analyze web traffic and to keep track of user behavior. Google Analytics may collect your IP address and other information about your usage.

When these services are implemented, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.
