 ## Mesurer
 
-Mesurer is a lightweight tool to measure distances, check alignment, and display visual guides directly on web pages in the browser.
+Mesurer includes a browser tool, an npm package, a Chrome extension, and hosted platform features for reviewing deployed web projects.
+
+## Local browser features
+
+The browser tool and Chrome extension store settings, guides, measurements, comments, and page workspaces locally in your browser where possible. This local data is not sent to Mesurer servers by the extension's local features.
+
+Mesurer does not use the extension to sell or transfer your browsing history or website content for advertising.
+
+## Platform data
+
+When you use hosted platform features, Mesurer may process:
+
+- account details provided by your authentication provider, such as your name, email address, and profile image
+- project, deployment, and website origin information
+- comments, screenshots, review data, and content you choose to share
+- subscription and billing status
 
-## Data Collection
+This information is used to authenticate you, provide projects and reviews, share content at your direction, secure the service, and manage subscriptions.
 
-Mesurer does not collect, store, or transmit personal data.
+## Authentication and payments
 
-Mesurer does not collect:
+Mesurer may use GitHub or Google for sign-in. Those providers process information under their own privacy policies.
 
-- personally identifiable information
-- authentication credentials
-- financial or health information
-- web history
-- user activity analytics
-- website content for external processing
+Payments may be handled by third-party payment providers. Mesurer does not intend to store full payment card details on its own systems.
 
 ## Permissions
 
 ### activeTab
 
-Used only when the user explicitly activates the extension, to run Mesurer on the current tab.

 ### host permissions
 
-Mesurer requests access to HTTP and HTTPS pages so it can run on any regular website and restore
-the toolbar across reloads and in-site navigations. This access is not used to read or send page
-content off-device.
+Mesurer requests access to HTTP and HTTPS pages so it can run on regular websites and restore the toolbar across reloads and in-site navigations. This access is not used to send page content off-device by the local extension features.
 
 ### scripting
 
-Used to inject the extension script into the active page to render measurement overlays and guides.
-After you turn Mesurer on for a tab, the same script may be re-injected when that tab navigates so
-the toolbar can stay available.

+Used when you choose to copy a selected screenshot or sampled color to the clipboard.
 
-## Screenshot Capture
+### tabCapture
 
-Screenshot captures are initiated by the user and contain only the selected region of the
-currently visible tab. In the Chrome extension, capture is performed locally through Chrome's
-visible-tab capture API. In a React integration without the extension, Chrome may show its native
-tab-sharing prompt through `getDisplayMedia()`.
+Used only after you explicitly choose the video recording feature. It captures the active browser tab so Mesurer can record the region you select. The captured stream is processed locally in the browser and is not sent to Mesurer or any third party.
 
-Screenshots are copied to the local clipboard or downloaded locally according to the user's
-settings. Mesurer does not upload or externally process screenshots.
+### offscreen
 
-## Remote Code
+Used to create the offscreen document required by Chrome Manifest V3 to process tab recordings. The offscreen document crops and encodes the selected region locally after you start recording. It does not collect or transmit page content.
 
-Mesurer does not use remote code.
+## Screenshot and recording capture
 
-All JavaScript/Wasm executed by the extension is packaged with the extension bundle.
+Captures are initiated by you and contain only the region you select. In the Chrome extension, screenshots are captured locally through Chrome's visible-tab capture API. In a React integration without the extension, Chrome may show its native tab-sharing prompt through `getDisplayMedia()`.
 
-## Data Sharing
+Screenshots and recordings are processed locally and are copied to the local clipboard, stored temporarily in local extension storage, or downloaded locally according to your actions. Mesurer does not upload or externally process these captures unless you explicitly share them through a hosted platform feature.
 
-Mesurer does not sell or transfer user data to third parties.
+Video recordings are stored temporarily in the extension's local IndexedDB storage so they can be previewed, trimmed, and exported. Recordings remain on the device and are not uploaded. They can be removed through the recording editor or by clearing the browser's extension storage.
 
-## Contact
+## Data sharing and retention
+
+Mesurer shares hosted project and review content only as needed to provide a feature you request, such as a review link or project invitation. Anyone with access to a shared review link may be able to view the content included in that review.
+
+Hosted data is retained while needed to provide the service, maintain account records, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations. You may contact us to ask about your data or request deletion, subject to applicable legal and operational requirements.
 
-For questions, open an issue on GitHub:
+## Remote code
+
+The Chrome extension does not use remote code. JavaScript and WebAssembly executed by the extension are packaged with the extension bundle.

+- Video recording uses the Chrome extension's tab-capture integration for the smoothest active-tab workflow. Without the extension, browser capture permissions and supported export formats depend on the browser.
 
 Settings are stored separately from workspace state. The default adapter uses `localStorage`; integrations can provide a `persistence` adapter such as the browser extension's `chrome.storage.local` implementation.
