Privacy & Data Usage

• Your API key is stored locally and used only for translations
• Word lists and settings are stored in your browser
• No personal data is collected or shared
• Token usage is tracked locally for your reference
• Sentences to be translated are sent to your selected AI provider - this is the only data that leaves your browser

Komentar pengembang

For each supported language, a mapping of <source language>: <target language> is maintained in local storage. Whenever an allowed page (by default all pages) is loaded, all visible text on the page is chunked into sentences. Any sentence that contains a known word gets send to a background process that batches sentences to be translated, and sends them along with the list of known words, to an LLM to be translated. The original sentence is then replaced with the resulting translation.

There is some caching done to limit token usage, but generally speaking, each sentence to be translated gets sent to an LLM. Sentences that don't contain known words are ignored.
