1. Who is responsible?
This policy covers GPTFolders: Minimal 1.0 (free edition), an independent browser extension, and the information pages at gptfolders.com.
Project and contact: GPTFolders — support@gptfolders.com.
2. What the extension accesses
GPTFolders runs on chatgpt.com to display folders in the ChatGPT sidebar. To organize chats, it can access conversation links and visible titles in the page interface. It stores information that you choose to organize:
- Folder and subfolder names, colors, IDs, order and expanded/collapsed state.
- Chat titles and links/identifiers associated with the folders you select.
- Display preferences such as folder counters and whether organized chats are shown in Recents.
The extension does not store full conversation messages, passwords, payment information or a general browsing history.
3. Where data is stored and whether it is shared
This free version saves its organization data locally using chrome.storage.local. It does not require a separate GPTFolders account or send the stored folder structure and chat titles to servers operated by GPTFolders. It has no built-in analytics or advertising tracking.
You can voluntarily export a JSON backup and import it later. The exported file stays wherever you choose to save or share it. This version does not provide Google Drive synchronization.
GPTFolders does not sell user data or use it for advertising, profiling or credit decisions. Your direct use of ChatGPT remains subject to OpenAI's separate policies.
4. Website and support email
The current website is a static information site without sign-up forms or advertising/analytics scripts included in its pages. Like other hosted sites, access to it may generate technical server logs, such as IP address, browser information and request time, processed by the hosting provider (Hostinger) to deliver and secure the site.
If you contact support@gptfolders.com, your email address and the content of your message will be used to respond to your request, not for unsolicited marketing.
5. Purpose, legal basis and retention
The extension processes local organization data to provide the functionality you request. Support communications are processed to handle your inquiry. Technical website access logs may be processed for website delivery and security. Where applicable, the legal bases are providing the requested service and legitimate interests in maintaining security and answering support requests.
Locally stored organization data remains until you remove it, reset the extension or uninstall it. Exported backup files remain under your control. Support emails are kept only as long as reasonably needed to handle the request and any applicable obligations. Retention of hosting logs follows the hosting provider's applicable settings and rules.
6. Your choices and rights
You can edit or delete folders in the extension and remove its locally stored data by uninstalling it. If you have a privacy question or wish to exercise applicable data-protection rights concerning information handled by the website or support service, contact support@gptfolders.com. You may also contact your relevant data-protection authority.
7. Changes and independence
This notice applies to the free 1.0 edition. Planned paid features, cloud synchronization or new website services will require an updated policy before they are introduced.
