Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 June 2026

DevBuddy (“we”, “us”) is operated by Cristea Lelia, Bacău, Romania. This policy explains what we handle and why. Questions? besitmam9@gmail.com.

What DevBuddy does

DevBuddy is a browser extension and website that helps you find where to click on web dashboards. When you ask it a question, it takes a screenshot of your current page and reads the page’s clickable elements, then uses an AI model to point you to the right control.

What we process

1. Screen content (only when you ask)

A screenshot of your active tab and a list of its clickable elements.
Before the screenshot is taken, password fields and credit-card fields are masked (covered with opaque boxes) so they are not captured.
This screenshot is processed in memory on our servers and passed to our AI provider to generate your answer. We do not store your screenshots — they are discarded after the request.

2. Your question (text or voice) — the words you type or speak are sent to our AI provider to understand and answer. Voice audio is transcribed and not stored by us.

3. Account information — when you sign in with Google, we receive your email address and a user ID, and we store your subscription status, usage counts, and preferences (language, personality, etc.) to run your account.

Third parties we use

Google — sign-in.
Supabase — authentication and database (stores the account info above).
Stripe — payment processing (we never see or store your full card details).
OpenAI — the AI model that reads the screenshot and answers your question.

Your screenshot and question are sent to OpenAI’s API to generate the answer. Per OpenAI’s API policy, API data is not used to train their models, and is retained for a limited period (currently up to 30 days) only for abuse monitoring, after which it is deleted.

What we do NOT do

We do not sell your data.
We do not store your screenshots.
We do not use your data for anything other than providing DevBuddy.

Storage & local data

Account data is stored via Supabase. Your preferences and your linked session token are also stored locally in your browser so the extension can talk to our backend.

Your rights

You can request access to or deletion of your account data at any time by emailing besitmam9@gmail.com. If you delete your account, your stored data is removed. For EU/UK users, this includes your rights under the GDPR.

Changes

We may update this policy; the “last updated” date will change. Significant changes will be announced on devbuddy.shop.
