Privacy, without the fine-print fog.

The information Shelf handles depends on the features you use:

Account information

Your name, email address, profile image, and the account identifier supplied by our authentication provider when you create an account or sign in.

Content you choose to save

For a capture: the screenshot or interface area you select, its source URL and page title, text found in the selected area, detected colors, capture title, section type, collection selection, and capture time. When you choose Save website: the current URL, site name, page description, social preview image, and favicon available on that page.

Library content

Collection names, descriptions, custom section types, organization choices, and any sharing settings or links you create.

Authentication and local extension data

Short-lived authentication tokens, a temporary capture draft and image preview, and your last selected capture mode. Shelf does not receive your password.

Technical information

Our service providers may process standard request and security logs, such as IP address, browser or device type, request time, and error information, to operate and protect the service.

The browser extension can operate on websites you visit so that it can present the capture tool. It does not continuously read, transmit, or build a history of those pages. Website content is processed when you open Shelf and explicitly select an element, take a photo, or choose Save website. Saving a website does not give Shelf ongoing access to that site or your browsing history.

We use information to:

• Create and secure your Shelf account.
• Capture, upload, organize, display, search, and share the references you choose to save.
• Remember limited extension preferences and maintain a capture while you review it.
• Provide support, troubleshoot errors, prevent abuse, and keep Shelf reliable.
• Comply with law and enforce our rights when necessary.

We do not use captured website content, browsing information, or account data for personalized advertising, credit decisions, or unrelated profiling.

We share information only where needed to provide Shelf, follow your instructions, or meet legal and security obligations:

Clerk

Provides sign-in, session management, and account identity services.

Convex

Provides application database, backend functions, and synchronization infrastructure for your Shelf library.

Cloudflare Images

Receives and stores the capture images you choose to save.

Hosting and infrastructure providers

Process limited technical information needed to deliver, monitor, and secure the website and extension services.

People you choose

A capture or collection can be viewed by others when you intentionally create or share a public link. Your library is otherwise private by default.

We may also disclose information if reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect users or Shelf, investigate abuse, or complete a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate safeguards.

The extension stores pending capture data and authentication material in Chrome's session storage and cache while you review a capture. Pending capture data is removed after you save or discard it; session information also expires with the browser session. Your last capture mode is stored locally until you clear the extension's data or uninstall it.

Saved account and library information is retained while your account is active and until it is deleted or no longer needed to provide Shelf. Some information may remain for a limited time in backups, security logs, or where retention is required by law. To request account or data deletion, contact us at the address below.

You choose whether to start a capture or save the current website, what area to save, how to name and organize it, and whether to share it. You can discard a pending capture without uploading it, sign out, manage sharing settings where available, clear local extension data, or uninstall the extension.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or receive a copy of your personal information, or to object to certain processing. Email kris@honeynjam.com to make a request. We may need to verify your identity before completing it.

Shelf uses HTTPS for data in transit and relies on access controls and service providers designed to protect stored data. Authentication tokens are kept temporary in the extension, and captured images upload through one-time upload URLs. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Shelf is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information to Shelf, please contact us so we can investigate and delete it where required.

Shelf and its service providers may process information in countries other than the one where you live. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for these transfers.

We may update this policy as Shelf changes. We will revise the date at the top of this page and provide additional notice when required. If our extension's data practices materially change, we will disclose the change before collecting or using data in the new way.

Shelf's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs, including Chrome extension APIs, adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We use that information only to provide or improve Shelf's user-facing capture and library features, and as otherwise permitted by that policy.
