Privacy

Effective 4 September 2026. This policy covers the website https://aidr.today and the aidr Chrome new-tab extension. Contact: me@duyet.net.

Single purpose

The extension replaces Chrome's new tab with the public AI;DR digest and top stories from aidr.today. That is its only purpose.

What we collect

  • Website content. The extension fetches public JSON from https://aidr.today/api/public and, when available, /api/feed. That payload is story titles, URLs, short summaries, tags, and thumbnail URLs already published on the site. It is not your browsing history.
  • Local settings and cache. Theme, language, and a short copy of the last digest are stored in chrome.storage on your device so a new tab still paints if the network is down.

There is no account, no analytics SDK, no advertising, and no sale of data. We do not use the data for purposes other than showing the digest.

Permissions

  • storage — settings and the local digest cache.
  • https://aidr.today/* — fetch the public digest. No other hosts.
  • Optional localhost / 127.0.0.1 — only if you point the API base at a local Worker. Chrome asks before this is granted.

Remote code

All extension logic ships inside the package. New-tab pages do not load or execute scripts from the network.

Sharing and retention

The public JSON fetch goes to aidr.today (Cloudflare Worker). We do not share extension settings with anyone. Local cache stays on the device until you clear site/extension data or uninstall.

Changes

If data handling changes, this page is updated and the extension listing is updated before the new version ships.
