("Adom", "we", "us") **Contact:** [email protected] · https://adom.inc -This Privacy Policy explains how the **Adom for Chrome & Edge** browser extension (the-"Extension") handles information. It is written to be read alongside the extension's-permission justifications and the Chrome Web Store / Microsoft Edge Add-ons listings.+This policy explains how the **Adom for Chrome & Edge** browser extension (the "Extension") handles+information, in plain terms. --- ## Who we are, and why this extension needs broad browser capabilities -**Adom Industries is an AI electronics-prototyping company.** We build a full, AI-native-development environment for the entire electronics industry — and we let developers-everywhere build *on top of us*. Our ecosystem and our users are continuously writing and-running code: **web-based oscilloscopes, web-based electronic design automation (EDA) and-CAD software, and applications that drive and control real circuit boards** — all in the-browser, all day, every day.--Because Adom is a **complete development environment** — a "vibe coding" environment where an-AI assistant and the developer build software together in real time — the Extension must be-able to **fully operate the browser the same way a human developer does**: open and navigate-pages, read and screenshot what's on screen, fill forms, click controls, inspect the DOM, run-and debug JavaScript, and manage tabs, windows, downloads, and the developer's own logged-in-sessions. This is the **same category of capability that AI coding assistants such as the-Claude browser extension already use to drive a browser on the user's behalf.** We are, by-design, that same kind of tool: an AI agent's hands inside the developer's own browser.--That is the reason the Extension requests powerful permissions (such as the debugger,-all-sites access, and cookies). They exist to **deliver functionality the developer explicitly-asks for**, not to collect data about the developer. Every action the Extension takes is-initiated by the user, through their own Adom AI session, on their own machine.---## What the Extension can access--To act as the developer's hands in the browser, the Extension can, **when the user directs an-action**, access:--- **Page content & the DOM** of sites the user navigates or asks the AI to drive (to read,- screenshot, fill, click, and inspect).-- **The Chrome DevTools Protocol (debugger)** for the active tab, to dispatch trusted input,- capture full-page screenshots, evaluate/debug JavaScript, and read console/network logs —- exactly what a developer or an AI coding assistant needs to build and test web apps.-- **Tabs, windows, navigation history, and downloads** the user asks to open, switch, reload,- or save.-- **Cookies and the user's signed-in sessions**, so authenticated workflows (the developer's- own logged-in tools, dashboards, and vendor sites) work without re-login — the same sessions- the user already has in their browser.-- **Local extension storage**, to remember the user's session/window mapping between commands.--The Extension does **not** silently scan, harvest, or index your browsing. It accesses a page-only as part of carrying out a command you (or your AI session, acting for you) issue.--## How information is used and where it goes--- The Extension runs **inside your own browser** and connects, via a Chrome **native-messaging- host on your own computer**, to your local **Adom Desktop** application. Commands flow *to*- the Extension and results (including screenshots and page data) flow *back* to **your own- active Adom AI session** so the AI can complete the task you asked for.-- Depending on how you run Adom, that AI session may execute in **Adom cloud infrastructure- you control**. In that case the page data and screenshots needed for your task transit to- that session **solely to fulfill your request** — the same way any cloud-based AI assistant- receives the page it is helping you with.-- We use this information **only to perform the automation the user requests.** We do **not**:- - sell or rent it;- - use it for advertising or to build advertising profiles;- - use it for any purpose unrelated to the user-requested feature;- - share it with third parties except infrastructure providers that process it on our behalf- to deliver the service, under confidentiality obligations.--## Data we do **not** collect--We do not collect or store the contents of your web pages, your passwords, or your browsing-history as a standalone product dataset. Saved passwords are never decrypted or exfiltrated by-the Extension — where a login is needed, the **browser's own autofill** fills it. The Extension-is a conduit for your own commands, not a data-collection product.--## Retention--Operational data (screenshots, page snapshots, command results) exists only for as long as-needed to complete your request and to appear in your AI session transcript, after which it is-subject to that session's normal retention. The Extension itself keeps only minimal local state-(your session-to-window mapping) in your browser's local storage, which you can clear at any-time by removing the Extension.+**Adom Industries is an AI electronics-prototyping company.** We build a full, AI-native development+environment for the entire electronics industry — and we let developers everywhere build *on top of us*.+Our ecosystem and our users are continuously writing and running code: **web-based oscilloscopes,+web-based electronic design automation (EDA) and CAD software, and applications that drive and control+real circuit boards** — all in the browser, all day, every day.++Because Adom is a **complete "vibe coding" development environment** — where an AI assistant and the+developer build software together in real time — the Extension is designed to **operate the browser the+same way a human developer does**: open and navigate pages, read and screenshot what's on screen, fill+forms, click controls, inspect the DOM, run and debug JavaScript, and manage tabs, windows, downloads,+and the developer's own signed-in sessions.

The Extension's powerful permissions exist to deliver that+functionality on your command.++## What the Extension does++The Extension runs **inside your own browser** and acts on the commands you — or your Adom AI session,+working on your behalf — give it. To carry out a task, it can read and screenshot the pages you're+working on, fill and click and type, run and debug JavaScript on the live page, manage your tabs,+windows, and downloads, and use your existing signed-in sessions so your tools and vendor sites just+work.

Your saved passwords stay with the browser; the browser's own autofill+enters them when a login is needed.++## How long it's kept++The screenshots and page data captured to complete a request live for as long as the request needs them+and as part of your Adom session transcript, under that session's normal retention. The Extension itself+keeps only a small amount of local state in your browser — a map of your sessions to their windows —+which is cleared whenever you remove the Extension. ## Security -Traffic between the Extension and your machine uses Chrome's native-messaging channel and a-loopback (127.0.0.1) connection that is pinned to this Extension's identity, so other pages and-extensions cannot drive it.
