Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 12, 2026

1. Who We Are

Relay is operated by Alimkhan Yergebayev, an individual based in Kazakhstan. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the Relay web application and Chrome extension ("the Service").

2. Information We Collect

Account information: When you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture from Google OAuth.

Chat content: When the Relay Chrome extension is active and connected, we capture and store the full text content of your AI chat sessions. This includes your messages to AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Perplexity) and the AI's responses, including any raw HTML content from the chat interface.

Derived data: Relay processes your captured chats to generate project summaries, decisions, open tasks, constraints, and session digests. These derived items are stored alongside your original chat content.

Project data: Project names, descriptions, objectives, and configurations you create within Relay.

Extension data: Device tokens, connection status, and extension preferences stored locally in your browser via Chrome storage APIs.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data exclusively to provide the Relay service:

  • Generating and maintaining project briefs from your chat history
  • Enabling context insertion into new AI chat sessions
  • Displaying your project dashboard, activity feed, and saved context
  • Authenticating your identity and managing your session

We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

4. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored in a Neon PostgreSQL database with encryption at rest and in transit. The database is hosted in a secure cloud environment. We use standard security practices including HTTPS for all communications, secure session management via httpOnly cookies, and scoped device tokens for extension authentication.

5. Analytics

We may use PostHog or similar privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand how the Service is used. Analytics data is aggregated and does not include your chat content. You may opt out of analytics via your browser's Do Not Track setting.

6. Data Retention

Your data is retained for as long as you maintain an active account. You may delete individual projects and their associated data at any time. When you delete your account via the Settings page, all associated data — including chat transcripts, project state, and derived content — is permanently removed from our systems.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access all data we store about you (via the dashboard and project detail pages)
  • Delete your data at any time (via Settings → Delete Account)
  • Export your project data
  • Disconnect the Chrome extension at any time, which stops all data capture

8. Third-Party Services

Relay integrates with Google OAuth for authentication. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of Google or the AI tools you use (ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Perplexity). We recommend reviewing their respective privacy policies.

9. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for use by individuals under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify users of significant changes via email or a notice on the dashboard. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
