PandaBot Browser Extension

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the PandaBot browser extension collects, stores, uses, and shares information when you install or use the extension.

Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to the PandaBot browser extension, including its operator controls, network traffic workflows, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) analysis features, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) workflows, and related PandaBot service integrations.

This policy does not replace any broader PandaBot website, account, or platform privacy terms that may also apply when you use PandaBot services outside the extension.

Information We Collect

We may collect, receive, store, or process the following categories of information.

Account And Session Information

  • PandaBot account username and display name.
  • Session identifiers, app identifiers, device or install identifiers, and browser identifiers.
  • Runner session tokens and refresh tokens used to authenticate the extension with PandaBot services.
  • Session timing information, such as login time, expiry time, refresh expiry time, and sign-out events.

Traffic Workflow And Service Activity Data

  • Assigned traffic task information and campaign identifiers.
  • Target website URLs, starting URLs, search keywords, backlinks, and task execution state.
  • Task activity records such as page visits, search-result interactions, completion signals, and related operational reporting.
  • Version-policy checks, install inventory, heartbeat status, diagnostics, and service-response data needed to operate the extension.

SEO And GEO Analysis Data

  • URLs submitted for SEO or GEO workflows.
  • On-page content and metadata that the extension reads from pages you analyze, such as titles, meta descriptions, headings, canonical links, visible text, image information, and link structure.
  • SEO and GEO outputs such as keyword suggestions, content recommendations, scores, site summaries, section suggestions, llms.txt-style outputs, markdown exports, and locally saved history records.

Preferences And Local Extension Data

  • Runner preferences, including saved traffic-task mode and other extension settings.
  • Cached runtime snapshots, queued progress records, task backlog summaries, and recent status entries.
  • Last sign-out records and recoverable authentication state used to restore the extension after interruptions.

Local AI Runtime Data

  • Local AI compatibility and installation state.
  • Model cache state and related local AI runtime metadata.
  • Inputs and outputs processed by local AI features used for SEO and GEO enrichment when those features are enabled in the browser.

Temporary Login-Page Data

  • When a PandaBot website login is initiated, the extension may temporarily store the pending login attempt state in page session storage until the login flow completes or is cleared.

How We Use Information

We use the information described above to:

  • Authenticate you with PandaBot services and maintain your extension session.
  • Deliver assigned network traffic workflows and related operator controls.
  • Perform SEO and GEO analysis requested through the extension.
  • Generate local or local-AI-assisted suggestions, summaries, and exports.
  • Save preferences, restore extension state after interruption, and improve runtime reliability.
  • Communicate with PandaBot backend services for session management, task assignment, extension policy, reporting, diagnostics, and support operations.
  • Detect failures, protect service integrity, troubleshoot issues, and maintain security.

We do not use extension data for creditworthiness or lending decisions.

Where Information Is Stored

Depending on the workflow, information may be stored in one or more of the following places.

In Browser Storage

The extension stores certain information in browser-managed local storage, including:

  • install identifiers
  • runner session snapshots
  • recoverable runner authentication state
  • saved runner preferences
  • sign-out records
  • SEO analysis history
  • GEO session history
  • local AI state

In Page Session Storage

The extension temporarily stores pending login-attempt information in page session storage during PandaBot website login automation.

In PandaBot Services

The extension communicates with PandaBot services, including PandaBot login and backend service endpoints, to support authentication, task polling, service heartbeats, extension policy checks, and operational reporting.

In Local AI Caches

If you enable PandaBot local AI features, model files and related runtime artifacts may be stored locally in browser-managed caches on your device.

When Information Is Shared

We may share information in the following circumstances:

  • With PandaBot-operated services that are required to authenticate sessions, assign tasks, enforce extension policy, or record workflow activity.
  • With service providers or infrastructure providers acting on PandaBot's behalf, where needed to operate the service.
  • When required to comply with law, regulation, legal process, or valid governmental request.
  • When necessary to protect the rights, safety, security, or integrity of PandaBot, users, or the public.
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or part of the business, subject to applicable law.

PandaBot does not sell extension data for unrelated advertising or unrelated third-party marketing purposes.

Third-Party Websites And Content

The extension may open, inspect, or interact with third-party websites as part of assigned traffic workflows or operator-requested SEO and GEO analysis. Those websites control their own content, cookies, and privacy practices. PandaBot is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites.

Permissions And Access

The extension requests browser permissions that allow it to:

  • Manage tabs used in PandaBot workflows.
  • Run the PandaBot side panel interface.
  • Persist local extension state.
  • Schedule background runtime work.
  • Run offscreen processing for supported extension features.
  • Inspect and interact with websites involved in assigned traffic tasks or user-requested analysis.

Because PandaBot traffic tasks and analysis workflows may target many different domains, the extension may require broad host access in order to function as intended.

Data Retention

Retention may vary by data type and workflow.

  • Local browser data may remain until it is replaced, cleared by the extension, cleared by the user, or removed when the extension is uninstalled.
  • Temporary login-attempt data is intended to be removed when the login flow completes or fails.
  • PandaBot service-side retention for account, task, reporting, and diagnostic data depends on applicable operational, contractual, and legal requirements.

Your Choices

Depending on the feature, you may be able to:

  • Sign out and clear active extension session state.
  • Change runner preferences from the extension settings UI.
  • Clear local browser storage by removing the extension or clearing extension data in the browser.
  • Reset local AI cached artifacts through the extension's local AI controls, where available.
  • Choose whether to run SEO and GEO analysis workflows and whether to enable local AI support for those workflows.

Security

PandaBot uses technical and organizational measures intended to protect extension-related information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

Children's Privacy

The PandaBot browser extension is not intended to be directed to children under the age required by applicable law to consent to data processing on their own.

Changes To This Policy

PandaBot may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If material changes are made, PandaBot may update the published policy date and provide notice through the extension, PandaBot services, or the PandaBot website where appropriate.
