Antiqly for Chrome

Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 18, 2026 · Last updated: October 18, 2026

This policy explains what data the Antiqly for Chrome extension (“Antiqly”, “the extension”) handles, why, and what you can do about it. Antiqly for Chrome is published by Obzena LLC, 30 N Gould St #45213, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA (“we”, “us”).

1. Data we handle

Data	Why	Where it goes
The image you choose (a resized copy, or its web address when your browser can't read it)	To identify the item	Our server (Google Cloud / Firebase) and OpenAI's API; not stored by us
Page context: that image's alt text, the page title and the site's domain	Hints that improve the identification	Our server and OpenAI's API
Identification result	To show it to you and so that a retried request isn't charged twice	Your browser (history, last 20) and our server for 24 hours
Installation ID (random, created on install)	To link your plan to this browser and count identifications	The extension and our server
Plan and billing status (plan, renewal date, Stripe customer and subscription IDs)	To unlock the extension	Our server, from Stripe; RevenueCat (subscription analytics)
Email address you enter at Stripe checkout	Receipts, and the code for “Restore purchase”	Stripe and our server
Usage counts (identifications per period, model cost)	Plan limits and abuse prevention	Our server

The extension does not collect your browsing history, the content of pages you did not ask it to look at, your location, or analytics about how you use it.

2. How an identification works

1. You right-click an image (or pick one). Chrome gives the extension temporary access to that tab only (the “activeTab” permission).
2. If your browser can read the image, the extension resizes it (max 1024 px) and sends that copy. If it can't (some sites block it), the extension sends the image's address and our server downloads that single image; as a last resort it crops the image from a screenshot of the visible tab.
3. Our server checks your plan and sends the image with the page hints to OpenAI's API, which returns the identification. The image is processed in memory and not saved.

OpenAI acts as our service provider. Under its API terms, data sent through its API is not used to train its models by default and is deleted after a limited retention period (up to 30 days).

3. Payments and your plan

When you choose a plan, Stripe's checkout page opens in a new tab. Stripe processes your payment and shares with us the subscription status, plan, renewal date and the email you entered. We never receive your full card number. Stripe's privacy policy: stripe.com/privacy. We report new subscriptions to RevenueCat (subscription analytics) using a pseudonymous ID based on the Stripe customer ID.

4. Browser permissions

• contextMenus: adds “Identify with Antiqly” and “Pick an image on this page to identify” to the right-click menu.
• activeTab and scripting: only after you use the menu or the shortcut, lets the extension read the chosen image's alt text, the page title and the image's position on that tab, and show the image picker on that page. No script stays on the page.
• sidePanel: shows results in Chrome's side panel.
• storage: keeps your installation ID, plan status, currency and history in the browser.
• Access to our server (us-central1-obzena-ext.cloudfunctions.net): plan checks and identification.

5. Service providers

• Google Cloud / Firebase (server and database): firebase.google.com/support/privacy
• OpenAI (image identification): openai.com/policies/privacy-policy
• Stripe (payments): stripe.com/privacy
• RevenueCat (subscription analytics): revenuecat.com/privacy

We may also disclose data if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users or of Obzena LLC.

6. Retention and deletion

• Images: not stored by us.
• Identification results: 24 hours on our server; in your browser until you remove them (History → ×, or Clear all) or remove the extension.
• Plan, installation ID, usage counts, email: while your subscription is active and up to 24 months after it ends, or longer where tax and accounting law requires it for payment records.

To delete the data on our server, email hello@obzena.com with the subject “Antiqly for Chrome data deletion” and the email you used at checkout; we delete it within 30 days. Deleting data does not cancel a subscription; see the Support page for how to cancel.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA or KVKK), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, export or restrict the processing of your personal data, and to object to processing. Contact us at hello@obzena.com; we respond within 30 days. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. Our legal bases (where the GDPR applies) are performance of our contract with you and our legitimate interests in security and abuse prevention.

Our providers process data in the United States and other countries. Where required, transfers rely on safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses. Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS).

8. Chrome Web Store Limited Use

The use of information received from Chrome APIs complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use data only to provide the extension's single purpose (identifying antiques and collectibles in images you choose), we do not sell it, we do not use it for advertising or creditworthiness, and humans do not read it except with your permission, for security, or to comply with the law.

9. Children, changes and contact

Antiqly for Chrome is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country). We may update this policy when the extension changes; the current version is always on this page, with the date at the top.
