Who We Are
Zenva AI ("we", "our", "us") is an AI-powered Chrome extension and web service at zenvaai.xyz. We provide intelligent browsing assistance, smart autofill, meeting transcription, document memory, and real-time AI guidance.
We believe privacy is a right, not a feature. We collect only what's necessary, process it only as described here, and never monetise your personal data.
What We Collect
Account Information
Name & Email
Provided at sign-up. Your email is used to identify your account and send transactional alerts.
Password
Stored as a one-way bcrypt hash only. We cannot read or recover your password.
Profile Avatar
Optional image uploaded by you. Stored solely to personalise the extension panel.
AI Interaction Data
Chat Messages
Messages you send to the AI and responses generated — saved as your chat history.
Page Context
The URL, title, and up to 5,000 characters of visible page text sent alongside AI requests to provide context.
Screenshots (not stored)
Screenshots from the Screen / Game Guide are sent to Claude for real-time analysis, then immediately discarded. We store no images.
Meeting Transcripts
Audio is transcribed in real time and the resulting text plus AI summary is saved to your account. No audio is stored.
Documents & Memory
Uploaded Files
PDF, DOCX, or TXT files you upload (up to 5 MB each, max 5 per account). Stored to power Document Memory.
Memory Entries
Custom key/value facts you save for the AI to remember across sessions.
Payment & Technical
Credit Balance & Transactions
Your current credit balance and payment transaction history. Transaction references from payment gateways only — we never store card numbers.
Device Identifier
A random identifier generated by the extension on your device (not tied to your hardware or identity) and sent once at registration. Used solely to limit how many accounts can be created from one browser install, to prevent abuse of free-credit and referral rewards.
Security Logs
IP address and request timestamps used only for rate limiting and abuse prevention. Retained 90 days.
How We Use Your Data
Delivering the Service
Answering AI queries, filling forms, transcribing meetings, and providing screen guidance.
Personalisation
Using your saved documents and memory entries to give contextually relevant answers.
Account Management
Authentication, credit balance tracking, and abuse prevention (e.g. per-device account limits).
Security
Rate limiting, brute-force prevention, and fraud detection.
Communications
Email verification, password reset codes, low-balance reminders, and security notices. No marketing emails without your consent.
Service Improvement
Aggregated, anonymised usage patterns to improve features — never linked back to you individually.
We do not use your data for advertising, behavioural profiling, or any purpose not listed here.
Data Sharing
We share data with third parties only as required to deliver the service:
Anthropic (Claude AI)
Your messages, page content, and screenshots are processed by Anthropic's Claude API to generate AI responses. Anthropic's own privacy policy governs their data handling.
Payment Gateways
Paystack and Flutterwave. All payment data stays with these gateways — we receive only a transaction reference and success/fail status, never your card number.
Email Delivery (Resend)
We share your email with Resend solely to deliver transactional emails (verification codes, password resets, low-balance reminders). They do not use it for any other purpose.
Storage & Security
Encrypted Database
Data stored on secured servers using MySQL with encrypted connections between all services.
bcrypt Password Hashing
Passwords hashed with bcrypt (cost 12) — mathematically irreversible. Even our engineers cannot read them.
JWT + Revocation
Authentication via short-lived JWT tokens (7-day expiry) with a server-side revocation blacklist — logging out truly invalidates your session.
HTTPS Everywhere
All production traffic encrypted with HTTPS/TLS. No plaintext communication.
Rate Limiting
Strict rate limiting applied to all API endpoints to prevent brute force and abuse.
While we implement industry-standard security measures, no system is 100% guaranteed. In the event of a breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you promptly.
Cookies & Local Storage
The Zenva AI Chrome extension uses Chrome's local storage (not browser cookies) to store:
Authentication Token
Your JWT token, stored locally so you stay logged in across browser sessions.
Cached Profile Data
Your name and avatar for instant display when the panel opens — never transmitted externally on its own.
This data stays entirely on your device and is transmitted to our servers only when you actively use the extension. You can clear it instantly by logging out or uninstalling the extension.
Our website uses no third-party tracking cookies or analytics scripts.
Data Retention
Account & Profile
Kept until you delete your account.
Chat History
Kept until you delete sessions in the dashboard.
Meeting Transcripts
Kept until you delete them from your account.
Uploaded Documents
Kept until you delete them (max 5 per account).
Payment Records
Retained 7 years for accounting and legal compliance — required by law.
Security Logs
IP addresses and rate-limit logs — retained 90 days, then automatically purged.
When you delete your account, all personal data is permanently purged within 30 days, except payment records required by law.
Your Rights
Access
Request a copy of your data via Settings → Export My Data.
Correction
Update your profile at any time in Settings.
Deletion
Permanently delete your account and all data via Settings → Delete Account.
Portability

Objection
Contact us to object to any specific use of your data — we'll review every request fairly.
Children's Privacy
Zenva AI is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a child has registered, contact us at support@zenvaai.xyz and we will delete the account immediately.
Policy Changes
We may update this policy as the service evolves. We will notify you of material changes via email or an in-app notice at least 7 days before they take effect. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
