What BaseFlow Does
BaseFlow is a manual data entry tool that lets you input information into forms and save it directly to your Baserow database tables.
We do NOT automatically capture, scrape, or clip web page content. All data saved through BaseFlow is explicitly entered by you.
Introduction
BaseFlow ("we", "our", or "the extension") is a Chrome browser extension that allows users to input and save data directly to their Baserow database tables. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our extension.
Information We Handle
1. Information You Provide
Baserow Credentials
- Your Baserow API URL and API token
- Stored locally in your browser's secure storage
- Never transmitted anywhere except to your Baserow instance
- You can delete these at any time through the extension settings
Form Data
- Any information you type into BaseFlow forms

2. License Information (Pro Users Only)
If you purchase BaseFlow Pro, we collect:

How Information Is Used
- Your Baserow Credentials are used only to authenticate API requests to your Baserow instance
- Your Form Data passes directly from the extension to your Baserow database. We have no access to this data
- License Information is used only to validate Pro features and provide support
Data Storage
All extension data is stored locally using Chrome's storage API:
- chrome.storage.local: For persistent settings and credentials
- chrome.storage.session: For temporary session data
No data is stored on our servers except Pro license records (email and device ID only).
Data Sharing
We do NOT share your information with third parties, except:
- Stripe (Pro users only): Processes payments securely. We don't store payment details
- Your Baserow Instance: The extension sends data directly to the Baserow API URL you provide
We never:
- Sell your data
- Share data with advertisers
- Use data for marketing
- Share data with analytics services
Data Security
- Local Storage: API tokens are stored using Chrome's secure storage APIs
- Direct Connection: All data transmission is directly between your browser and your Baserow instance over HTTPS
- No Intermediary: We don't route data through our servers
- Secure Development: Built with security best practices
Your Rights and Controls
You have complete control over your data:
- Delete All Data: Remove the extension or clear extension data in Chrome settings
- Modify Settings: Change or delete workspace configurations at any time
- Revoke Access: Delete your API token from the extension to revoke Baserow access
- Export Data: All your data is in your Baserow instance, which you fully control
Chrome Permissions Explained
The extension requires certain Chrome permissions:
- storage: To save your settings and credentials locally
- activeTab: To read the current page URL and title when you explicitly choose to save it
- scripting: To inject form interface when you click the extension
- alarms: To periodically validate Pro licenses
These permissions are used minimally and only for the stated purposes.

Summary
BaseFlow is a simple tool that helps you input data into your own Baserow databases. We don't track you, we don't see your data, and we don't share your information. Your data goes directly from your browser to your Baserow instance. The only information we handle is what's necessary to validate Pro licenses, and even that is minimal.
