Pages and forms
Formsmith only runs on a page when you click its icon. It reads the structure of the forms on that page: field names, types, labels, placeholders and the options of choice fields. It doesn't read what you or anyone else typed into the fields. Everything it reads stays in your browser. Page contents and the pages you visit are not sent to us or to anyone else.
Forms inside iframes
To read a form inside an iframe from another site, Formsmith asks for permission to that site. Chrome shows the request, and you can remove the permission at any time from the extension's details page.
Built-in AI
If you press "Draft with built-in AI", the page title, the address of the page and the form's labels and field names are given to the AI model built into Chrome (Gemini Nano). The model runs on your computer. Formsmith doesn't send this to any server.
Trying a tool in the tab
"Try it in this tab" adds attributes to the page in your browser, or registers a tool with Chrome, so that AI agents in that tab can use the form. It isn't saved and goes away when you stop trying or reload the page. Nothing is submitted unless an agent or you call the tool with "Submit when called" turned on.
License check
If you enter a license key, Formsmith sends that key to Polar (api.polar.sh) to activate and check it. This happens when you activate or remove a key, when Chrome starts, when you open the Formsmith popup, when you pick a form (at most once every 5 minutes), and about every 12 hours. Polar also records the name of the activation, which is always "Formsmith (Chrome)".
What's stored in your browser
Your settings (display language and description language), the date your free trial started, and your license details (key, status and the email address on the purchase) are kept in Chrome's extension storage. The trial start date is also kept in Chrome sync storage, so it can follow your Google account if you use Chrome sync.
Purchases
Polar is the merchant of record and handles payment. Your payment details go to them, not to us. See the Polar privacy policy.
