Chrome Extension — Privacy Policy
Anti Hallucinations is a fully local fact-checking tool. It sends your text only to
Ollama running on your own machine at localhost:11434.
There are no external servers, no analytics, no accounts, and no internet requests
of any kind beyond that local connection.
This Privacy Policy describes how the Anti Hallucinations Chrome extension handles information. The extension's sole purpose is to verify factual statements using AI models that run entirely on your local machine through Ollama.
By using the extension, you acknowledge this policy.
We do not collect any data. Specifically:
The only information stored is your UI preferences (selected model and
color theme), saved locally in your browser via chrome.storage.local.
This data never leaves your device.
When you click Verify Fact, the extension:
All of this happens entirely within your computer. The statement you enter never travels over the internet.
The extension requests only the minimum permissions necessary to function:
| Permission | Purpose | Sends data externally? |
|---|---|---|
storage |
Saves your preferred model and UI theme locally in the browser | No |
host_permissions: |
Connects to Ollama running on your own machine to run the AI model | No — localhost only |
host_permissions: |
Alternative loopback address for the same local Ollama connection | No — localhost only |
No other permissions are requested now or in the future without an update to this policy.
This extension does not integrate with, communicate with, or share data with any third-party service, analytics platform, advertising network, or cloud AI provider.
The AI models you use are provided by Ollama, which you install and run locally. Ollama's own privacy practices apply to that software; this extension has no control over or relationship with Ollama's terms.
This extension does not target or knowingly collect any information from children under 13. Because we collect no personal data from anyone, this policy applies equally regardless of age.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published with a new effective date. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. Because we collect no data, changes will only ever relate to clarifications or new features that maintain the same privacy-first approach.
For questions about this policy or the extension, open an issue in the project's repository or reach out through the Chrome Web Store listing page.
