Data captured by the Betterbugs Chrome Extension is subject to careful storage and deletion procedures. Your data will be deleted under the following circumstances:

4. Sharing of Data

The Betterbugs Chrome Extension offers you the capability to share your captured bug-related data with others through a secure and unique link. This link is generated using cryptographic methods, ensuring its security. Consequently, access to the shared data is restricted to individuals who possess the link.

However, it is important to be aware that when you opt to share information publicly, the content associated with the shared link may be accessible to anyone possessing the link. In the event that the link is inadvertently shared with an unintended third party, that third party would have the ability to access the corresponding session's content.

We are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of your data, and we encourage you to exercise caution when sharing links to your sessions to prevent unauthorised access.

For any questions or clarifications regarding data storage, deletion, or sharing, please feel free to reach out to us at support@betterbugs.io.

5. User Consent

By installing and using the Extension, you grant explicit permission for the collection, processing, and storage of the captured data as outlined in this Privacy Policy.
