Markwise Privacy Policy
Markwise is a local-first browser extension for saving bookmarks, checking duplicate bookmarks, adding bookmark metadata, and searching saved bookmarks.
Data Markwise stores locally
Markwise stores bookmark metadata such as title, URL, domain, summary, tags, folder, saved date, and duplicate-check information in browser extension storage and IndexedDB on your device. The extension also stores your AI provider settings locally.
Data Markwise reads from the browser
Markwise reads the current tab URL and title when you use the popup. It reads your browser bookmark tree to detect duplicates, save or update bookmarks, list folders, and search saved bookmarks. It may read selected page text or page content when you ask it to generate bookmark metadata.
Data collection
Markwise does not collect, sell, or share personal data with the developer. Markwise does not include analytics, advertising trackers, or a developer-operated account system.
Optional AI providers
Markwise can run in manual mode, use Chrome local AI when available, or use a custom AI provider that you configure. If you choose a third-party or self-hosted AI provider, Markwise sends the prompt content needed for the requested feature to that provider. This may include page title, URL, domain, selected text or page content, bookmark metadata, and your search query. Those requests are governed by the provider you selected, not by Markwise.
Remote services
Markwise only contacts remote AI endpoints when you configure and use an external AI provider or run a provider connection test. The extension does not send bookmark data to a Markwise server.
Data deletion
You can remove saved bookmark metadata by deleting saved entries in Markwise or by uninstalling the extension and clearing its browser extension data. Browser bookmark records are managed by your browser.
