ChatGPT Exporter Plus — Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 25, 2026
Overview
ChatGPT Exporter Plus ("the Extension") is a browser extension that helps you export your ChatGPT conversations. This privacy policy explains what data the Extension collects, how it is used, and your rights regarding your data.
Data Collection
The Extension collects the following data:
- Chat conversation data — Message content and titles from ChatGPT conversations you choose to export. This data is processed locally in your browser and is only used to generate the export file.
- Extension settings — Your preferences such as filename prefix, default export format, date format, dark mode setting, language preference, and download subfolder. These are stored locally via
chrome.storage.syncand synchronized across your Chrome browsers where you are signed in. - Anonymous usage statistics — Limited anonymous events (see "Anonymous Usage Statistics" below). No conversation content, titles, or personal identifiers are ever included.
How Data Is Used
- Conversation data is used solely to generate the export file (text, markdown, CSV, JSON, or PDF) that you explicitly request by clicking the export button.
- No conversation data is ever sent to any remote server unless you voluntarily submit feedback through the built-in feedback form.
- Settings data is stored and synchronized via Chrome's storage API for your convenience across devices.
Feedback Feature
If you choose to submit feedback through the Extension's feedback form, the following data is sent to our team:
- Feedback type (Bug, Feature Request, or Other)
- Email address (optional, only if you provide it)
- Feedback content (the text you write)
This data is used solely to improve the Extension. Your conversation data is never included in feedback submissions.
Anonymous Usage Statistics
The Extension sends anonymous usage statistics to help us improve the product. These events carry only technical information such as browser user-agent and browser language.
No conversation content, conversation titles, or personal identifiers are ever included in these statistics, and they are never linked back to you as an individual.
Data Storage & Security
- All data processing happens locally in your browser. Conversation data is temporarily cached in
chrome.storage.localfor the purpose of populating the export interface and is not transmitted elsewhere. - Export files are generated entirely on your device. No data leaves your browser except the anonymous usage statistics described above and when you explicitly submit the feedback form.
- The Extension does not use cookies and does not track your browsing activity in any way.
PDF Export
PDF export does not rely on any third-party library. Instead, the Extension opens a dedicated print window in your browser and uses the browser's built-in print engine (window.print()) to generate a high-quality PDF. All rendering and PDF generation happen locally on your device — no third-party PDF library and no data leaves your browser.
Permissions
The Extension requests the following Chrome permissions:
- activeTab — To access the current ChatGPT page and read conversation data when you open the popup.
- downloads — To save exported files to your computer.
- storage — To store your settings and temporarily cache conversation data.
- scripting — To inject the interceptor script into ChatGPT pages for capturing API responses.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
