Privacy Policy

What Asyde reads

Asyde reads the content of the page you are viewing — its text, and for email it reads the open thread — only when you actively send a message in the Asyde panel. It does not read pages in the background, and it never activates on sign-in screens, password fields, or pages you have not opened the panel on.

Where that content goes

When you send a request, the relevant page content and your message are sent to the Asyde service, which forwards them to a large-language-model provider to generate the reply. The reply streams back to the panel. This happens only for the request you made, at the moment you make it.

Asyde does not store your page content or conversations on its servers, does not sell any data, and does not use your data for advertising or profiling.

What stays on your device

Your settings — including your saved details, any access token or provider key you enter, and the tools you turn on — are stored locally in your browser using the extension storage API. They are not transmitted anywhere except to authenticate your own requests, and they are removed when you uninstall the extension.

Memory

Memory is off by default. When you turn it on, Asyde distills your chats into a few short notes — preferences, standing facts, ongoing work — so it can bring them back when they help. These notes are stored only on your device and are never kept on Asyde’s servers.

To create a note, the relevant chat turns are sent once to be summarized and then returned to your device to store; nothing is retained server-side, and sensitive pages are skipped. You can review every memory in Settings and delete any one — or all of them — at any time. Turning Memory off stops new notes without removing what you already have.

Tools you connect

Asyde’s built-in tools — saving media, capturing a screenshot, downloading the page as text, listing links — run entirely in your browser and send nothing to Asyde. When you add your own HTTP tool or connect an MCP server such as GitHub, requests go directly to the endpoint you configured, and any access token you enter is kept on your device.

Permissions

Asyde requests access to the pages you visit so the assistant panel can read the current page on request, and access to Gmail so it can help with email. These permissions are used solely to provide the assistant on the page in front of you.
