Privacy Policy
TL;DR.
- Extension recordings stay on your device unless you choose Google Drive or El Ojo Studio.
- Studio stores projects, recordings, transcripts, edits, and renders so its editor and sharing features can work.
- Studio requires an account. Shared-video analytics record playback and engagement data for the project owner.
Who we are
El Ojo includes a free Chrome screen recorder and the optional hosted Studio editor. It is made by ai2flows. This policy covers the extension, Studio, and the website at elojo.app.
What the extension does with data
Recordings
When you click Record, the extension captures the active browser tab (video + tab audio) and optionally your microphone and camera. These streams are processed entirely on your device and assembled into a WebM file.
When you stop, you choose how the file is saved:
- Download .webm - the file is saved to your local machine.
- Upload to Google Drive (if you connect a Google account) - the file is uploaded directly from your browser to your Drive over Google’s API. We never receive the file.
- Open in El Ojo Studio - the recording is uploaded to our hosted service and stored in Cloudflare R2 so you can transcribe, edit, render, and share it.
Microphone, camera, and screen permissions
These are granted via Chrome’s native permission prompts. The extension uses them only while recording, never in the background.
Google Drive integration
If you choose to connect Google Drive:
- We use the
drive.fileOAuth scope - the most restrictive Drive scope available. El Ojo can only see, create, and manage files that the extension itself creates. We cannot read your other Drive files. - We also request
userinfo.emailanduserinfo.profileso the popup can display “Signed in as your-email@example.com”. - The OAuth access token is stored by Chrome locally on your machine. We never see it.
- You can revoke El Ojo’s access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- El Ojo’s use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Google user data is used only to provide the user-facing features of El Ojo (uploading recordings to your Drive and showing your account name in the UI). It is not transferred to any third party, used for advertising, used to train AI/ML models, or accessed by humans except (a) with your explicit consent, (b) for security purposes, or (c) to comply with applicable law.
Settings
Your extension preferences (camera on/off, beauty level, etc.) are stored locally via chrome.storage on your machine. They never leave your device.
El Ojo Studio (opt-in)
If you create a Studio account or send a recording to Studio, our service may store:
- Your account details and authentication records.
- Recording metadata: filename, size, duration, timestamps.
- Recording, imported-media, transcript, edit, render, thumbnail, comment, sharing, and connector-draft data associated with your projects.
Studio stores media in Cloudflare R2 and structured project data in our hosted database. Local download and direct Google Drive export do not upload the recording to Studio unless you separately choose to do so.
What the website does with data
elojo.app and Studio are hosted services. Vercel and our infrastructure providers may log standard request metadata (IP address, user-agent, timestamps) for operational and abuse-prevention purposes. When someone watches a shared video, we may store a pseudonymous viewer identifier, referrer, watch time, completion, reactions, and comments to provide the project owner with engagement analytics.
Children
El Ojo is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
Your rights
You may request access, correction, export, or deletion of personal data associated with your Studio account by contacting us. To delete recordings:
- Locally saved: delete the
.webmfrom your machine. - Uploaded to Drive: delete from drive.google.com.
- Uploaded to Studio: delete the project in Studio or contact us for account deletion.
To revoke the extension’s Google Drive access: myaccount.google.com/permissions.
Changes to this policy
If anything material changes, we will update this page and the “Last updated” date above.
