Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 17, 2026
What We Collect
- Email address — used for rate limiting, license verification, and account identification. Collected when you use the Google Sheets add-on or sign up for Pro.
- Formula prompts — the text you type to generate, explain, or debug formulas. Sent to our AI provider to generate responses. Not stored after the request completes.
- Usage counts — how many formulas you generate per day, stored to enforce free tier limits.
What We Don't Collect
- Spreadsheet data — we never read, store, or transmit the contents of your spreadsheets. The Google Sheets add-on only reads column headers and your locale to provide context-aware formulas.
- Passwords or financial data — payments are processed entirely by Lemon Squeezy. We never see your credit card details.
- Browsing activity — we don't use tracking cookies or third-party analytics that follow you across the web.
How We Use Your Data
- To generate, explain, and debug spreadsheet formulas via our AI provider (OpenRouter/Meta Llama).
- To enforce daily free usage limits and verify Pro subscriptions.
- To process payments and manage subscriptions via Lemon Squeezy.
Third-Party Services
- OpenRouter — processes formula generation requests. Subject to OpenRouter's Privacy Policy.
- Lemon Squeezy — processes payments. Subject to Lemon Squeezy's Privacy Policy.

Data Retention
Usage counts are automatically deleted after 24 hours. License data is retained while your subscription is active and deleted upon cancellation. Formula prompts are not stored — they are processed in real-time and discarded.
