Privacy Policy for Esti'mate

Last Updated: December 18, 2025

Overview

Esti'mate is a browser extension that enhances Harvest's estimate functionality. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how it is used.

Data Collection

Local Storage Only

The extension stores the following data locally in your browser only:

  • Airtable workspace identifier
  • Airtable API key
  • Project management percentage preference
  • Spellcheck server URL (if configured)

This data never leaves your browser except as described below.

Optional Spellcheck Feature

If you configure and use the optional spellcheck feature:

What data is collected:

  • Text content from estimate descriptions that you choose to spellcheck
  • The content is sent to your configured spellcheck server

Where it goes:

  • To the server URL you configure in the extension options
  • This is typically a self-hosted server you control
  • Default: http://localhost:3000 (your local machine only)

How it's used:

  • The server processes the text using AI (OpenAI API) to check spelling and grammar
  • Corrections are returned to the extension
  • The text may be temporarily stored by the AI service (OpenAI) according to their privacy policy

You control this:

  • The spellcheck feature is completely optional
  • You must manually configure a server URL to enable it
  • You decide which text to check (item by item)
  • If no server URL is configured, no data is transmitted

Airtable Integration

If you configure Airtable integration:

What data is sent:

  • Your Airtable API key
  • Requests to fetch template data from your Airtable workspace
