Privacy policy
Last updated 27 October 2026. Applies to the browser extensions “Folderist for Gemini” and “Folderist for Claude” and to folderist.com.
The short version
Folderist does not collect, transmit, sell or share any personal data. The extension has no server and makes no network requests. Everything it stores stays in your browser, on your device.
What the extension stores, and where
- Folders and which chat belongs to which folder, stored with
chrome.storage.localin your browser. - Saved prompts, stored with
chrome.storage.local. - A local copy of the text of chats you open while Folderist is running, so that full-text search works. This copy is stored in your browser's IndexedDB, on your device. It is never uploaded.
- Settings such as whether the panel is open.
None of this data leaves your computer. Uninstalling the extension deletes all of it. You can also clear it at any time from your browser's site-data settings for the extension.
What the extension does not do
- No accounts, no sign-in.
- No analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or tracking of any kind.
- No network requests to us or to anyone else. The only sites it can read are the chat site it was installed for (
gemini.google.comorclaude.ai), and only to show its panel there. - No reading of other tabs, browsing history, cookies or passwords.
Permissions, explained
storageandunlimitedStorage: to keep your folders, prompts and search index locally. “Unlimited” only lifts the default size cap so a large chat history can be indexed; it does not grant access to anything else.- Site access to
gemini.google.comorclaude.ai: to add the Folderist panel to the page and read the conversation you have open so it can be filed, searched and exported.
Exports
When you export a chat, the file is generated in your browser and saved by your browser's normal download mechanism, or copied to your clipboard. It is not sent to us.
