Privacy Policy for NutriScan Chrome Extension
Last Updated: January 17, 2026
Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how the NutriScan Chrome Extension (“Extension”) handles your data. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices while you use our extension on supported e-commerce platforms.
NutriScan is provided by Devtejman. We act as the data controller for the processing of ingredient data through Google’s Gemini API.
Permissions and Data Usage
The NutriScan Extension requires certain browser permissions to function:
- Host Permissions (Amazon.in, Flipkart.com, Blinkit.com):
- Used solely to detect when you are on a supported product page.
- Allows the extension to extract ingredient text or capture product images (screenshots) for analysis when you click “Add to Cart”.
- Storage Permission:
- Used to store your daily scan quota and preferences locally on your device.
- Identity (Google Sign-In):
- Used to identify your account for subscription verification and cross-device quota sync via Firebase.
Data Collection and Processing
What we do:
- Extract ingredient text or images from supported product pages upon your request.
- Temporarily process these inputs to send them to Google’s Gemini API for analysis.
- Use Google Sign-In for authentication.
- Store basic user information (Email, Name, UID) and daily scan counts in Firebase Firestore to enforce usage limits.
- Manage subscriptions (Monthly/Annual) through Razorpay.
- Use Chrome’s storage sync to keep your preferences consistent.
What we do not:
- Store your photos or captured screenshots on our servers permanently.
- Store results of your ingredient analyses on our servers.
- Collect or store your credit card or payment details (all handled by Razorpay).
- Track your browsing history on sites other than the supported e-commerce platforms.
- Share your data with third parties for marketing purposes.
