Markie is a Chrome Extension for web article highlighting and AI-powered note synthesis. This Privacy Policy explains what data Markie handles and how.

Summary

• Markie stores your highlights and settings locally in your browser.
• Markie does not sell your data and does not share your data with third parties for advertising.
• If you enable AI Summary, Markie will send the text you choose to summarize to the AI provider you configure (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or a custom endpoint). That provider’s own privacy policy applies to their processing.

Data We Collect

Data you provide

When you use Markie, you may provide:

• Highlighted content: text you select on webpages, including surrounding context if you choose to include it in synthesis.
• Notes and exports: synthesized notes and Markdown exports you generate.
• Settings: AI provider selection, API base URL (if custom), and other extension preferences.
• API keys: API keys you paste into the extension settings to use an AI provider.

Data collected automatically

Markie does not intentionally collect analytics, telemetry, advertising identifiers, or tracking data.

How We Use Data

Markie uses data for the following purposes:

• Provide core functionality: saving, viewing, focusing, deleting highlights per page.
• Generate AI summaries (optional): sending selected text and prompts to the AI provider you configured to produce a summary.
• Export notes: generating downloadable .md files.
