Vids Autopilot Privacy Policy

This policy applies only to the Vids Autopilot Chrome extension. Every BeyondMaddy extension has its own privacy policy describing exactly what that extension does.

01Who we are

Vids Autopilot (“the extension”, “we”, “us”) is a free Chrome extension published by BeyondMaddy (beyondmaddy.site). It has a single purpose: automating batch generation in Google Vids (docs.google.com/videos). It enters your list of prompts into Google Vids one by one and downloads each video, image or song that Google Vids generates for you.

02Information we collect

The extension has no servers of its own and does not send any information to us or to any third party. We do not receive names, email addresses, IP addresses, browsing history, analytics, cookies or device identifiers.

To do its job, the extension does handle two kinds of data, only on your own device: the content of the Google Vids page it automates (section 04) and the settings, prompts and images you give it (section 03). In the Chrome Web Store privacy disclosure this is declared as “Website content”.

03Information stored on your device

The extension saves the following in your browser’s local extension storage (chrome.storage.local). This data never leaves your computer:

• Your settings: mode, aspect ratio, resolution, clip length, download folder, file-name pattern and similar options
• Your prompt-list draft and the batch queue, so a batch can resume after a page reload
• Reference images you add for Frame → Video or Ingredients → Video
• An activity log for troubleshooting, shown only to you
• Interface preferences such as light/dark theme and panel size

04Website content

The extension reads and interacts with the Google Vids page only, in order to type your prompts, apply your settings, press Generate and find the finished results. This happens entirely on your device. Page content is not recorded beyond what is needed to run your batch, and it is never transmitted or shared.

05Downloads

Generated media is downloaded directly from Google’s servers to your computer, into the folder and with the file names you choose. If a direct download fails, the extension fetches the same file from Google inside your Google Vids tab, using the sign-in you already have there, and saves it locally. That request goes only to Google.

Chrome lets the extension know when any download starts, so it can apply your chosen name to the files it creates. Downloads started by anything else are left untouched: the extension does not read, store or send any information about them.

06Permissions and why they are needed

sidePanel

Shows the extension’s interface (prompt list, settings, queue) in Chrome’s side panel next to Google Vids.

storage, unlimitedStorage

Keeps your settings, queue, activity log and reference images locally on your device. Reference images can exceed Chrome’s default storage quota.

tabs

Finds your Google Vids tab by its address to send it the batch, and opens, focuses or reloads it when you ask.

downloads

Saves each generated video, image or song to your Downloads folder with the name and sub-folder you chose.

debugger

Some Google Vids controls ignore clicks made by scripts. While a batch is running, the extension attaches to the Google Vids tab only and sends mouse-click and keyboard events to those controls, then detaches. It never uses this to read page content, network traffic, cookies or any other tab.

notifications

Shows a desktop notification when a batch finishes or when Google Vids needs your attention, for example a usage limit.

Host access

docs.google.com/videos to run the automation on Google Vids; *.usercontent.google.com and *.googleusercontent.com to download the media Google Vids serves from Google’s own domains.

07Sharing, sale and third parties

We do not sell, rent, trade or transfer user data to anyone. There is nothing to share, because nothing is collected.

The extension communicates with no one except Google Vids itself, which you use under Google’s own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Optional links inside the extension (Buy Me a Coffee, the Chrome Web Store review page, email support, Telegram, WhatsApp, Facebook and X) open in your browser only when you click them. Those sites have their own privacy policies.

08Chrome Web Store Limited Use

The use of information received through the extension adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not sell user data, do not use or transfer it for purposes unrelated to the extension’s single purpose, and do not use or transfer it to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes. No human reads your data, because it never leaves your device.

09Retention and deletion

Locally stored data stays on your device until you delete it. Use Clear or Remove all inside the extension to delete your prompts, queue, images or log, or remove the extension from Chrome (chrome://extensions) to delete all of its stored data at once. Files you downloaded stay in your Downloads folder until you delete them.

10Security and remote code

Because your data never leaves your device, it is protected by your browser and your computer account. All of the extension’s code is included in the package published on the Chrome Web Store. It does not download or run code from anywhere else.

11Children

The extension is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.

12Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. If the extension ever starts handling data differently, this page will be updated before that version is released.

13Contact

Questions or requests about this policy or your data: support@beyondmaddy.site. We aim to reply within a few business days.
