Subject: Note for Reviewer - Documents Gemini Analyzer Extension (Internal Testing)
Dear Firefox Add-ons Review Team,
Thank you for taking the time to review the "Documents Gemini Analyzer" extension. We've developed this extension for internal testing and research purposes only. We are not planning to distribute this extension publicly or use it for any commercial purposes.
We understand the importance of user privacy and security, even within our internal testing environment, and we'd like to highlight the key aspects of our approach:
• Purpose and Functionality: This extension is designed to help our internal team analyze content within our own Google Docs environments. It captures a screenshot of the currently visible area and sends it to the Google Gemini API for analysis, helping us quickly extract key information and improve our internal workflows.
• User-Initiated Action: Screenshot capture is always initiated by the user. The extension never captures screenshots automatically or without explicit user action (either by clicking the 'Analyze Screenshot' button or using the configured keyboard shortcut). This ensures that data capture is intentional and controlled.
• Privacy by Design: We prioritize data minimization and security. The extension does not store screenshots on our servers. Screenshots are transmitted directly and securely over HTTPS to the Google Gemini API for analysis, and we retain no copies. This minimizes the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access.
• Transparency within our Team: Our internal users are fully aware of the extension's functionality, data handling practices, and the use of the Google Gemini API. We maintain open communication within our team regarding data privacy.
• Third-Party Integration: We are transparent about our use of the Google Gemini API. The data shared with Google is subject to Google's privacy policy (available at [Link to your Privacy Policy - https://policies.google.com/privacy])
• No Distribution Planned: We want to reiterate that we do not plan to distribute this extension publicly or monetize it in any way. It is solely for our internal research and development purposes.
We believe that this extension provides a valuable tool for our internal team while adhering to strict privacy and security standards, even within our non-commercial testing context. We are committed to addressing any questions or concerns you may have during the review process and are prepared to make any necessary adjustments to ensure the extension meets Firefox's requirements.
Thank you again for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Himesh Jain
