Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2025

Guage is a browser extension that tracks your Claude usage and helps you continue conversations in other AI tools. This page explains exactly what data Guage accesses, what it stores, and what it never does.

What Guage collects

Guage reads the following information from your browser session on claude.ai:

Your current session usage percentage and message count
Your weekly usage percentage
The reset time for your Claude session
The model you are currently using (e.g. Sonnet 4.6)
The content of your active conversation, when you choose to export or continue it in another tool

All of this data stays on your device. It is never sent to any server, never collected by us, and never shared with anyone.

What Guage stores locally

Guage uses your browser's local storage to save:

A history of recent usage readings (timestamp, model, percentage)
Conversation context briefs you have exported, so you can reuse or re-copy them

This data is stored only in your browser using chrome.storage.local. It never leaves your device. You can clear it at any time by removing the extension or clearing your browser data.

What Guage does not do

Does not collect your name, email, or any personal information
Does not transmit any data to external servers
Does not track your browsing activity outside of claude.ai
Does not read your Claude conversations unless you explicitly click to export them
Does not use analytics, telemetry, or crash reporting tools
Does not sell, share, or monetise any data in any form

Permissions

Guage requests the following browser permissions:

Host permission for claude.ai — required to read usage data from the page and inject the Guage bar into the interface
storage — required to save recent readings and exported context briefs locally in your browser
tabs — required to open the destination AI tool (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) in a new tab when you click a handoff button

No other permissions are requested or used.

Third-party services

When you click a destination button (ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, or DeepSeek), Guage opens that tool in a new tab and places your context brief into the input box. At that point, you are interacting directly with those services under their own privacy policies. Guage has no further involvement once the tab opens.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we will update the date at the top of this page and note the change in the extension's update log. We will never introduce data collection without clearly disclosing it here first.
