Readdit Later

Privacy Policy

Independent third-party tool. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Reddit Inc.

Effective Date: January 14, 2026
Last Updated: August 11, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Readdit Later, a Chrome extension designed to help you save, organize, and enhance your Reddit experience. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use our extension and its features.

Transparency First: Readdit Later uses both local browser storage and secure server storage. This policy clearly explains what data is stored where, why we store it, and how you can control or delete it at any time.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

When you use Readdit Later, we collect:

2.2 Reddit Content

We access and process:

2.3 Subscription and Billing Information

2.4 Usage Analytics (First-Party Only)

To understand which features are used and improve the product, the extension sends feature-usage events (for example, which feature was opened and when) to our own server, associated with your Reddit username. These events describe how you use the extension — they do not include the content of your saved posts, notes, or searches. We do not use any third-party analytics or tracking services (no external trackers).

In addition, our servers automatically log basic technical request metadata — such as your IP address and request timestamps — for security, abuse prevention, and debugging. These technical logs are purged after 30 days (see Section 12.2).

2.5 What We Do NOT Collect

3. Server-Side Data Storage

Important: Server Storage Disclosure
Unlike purely local extensions, Readdit Later stores certain data on our secure servers (Supabase) to enable premium features like cross-device sync and persistent data storage.

3.1 What Data is Stored on Our Servers

The following data is stored in our Supabase database:

User Accounts Table:

User Labels Table:

User Notes Table:

User Read Status Table:

User Reminders Table:

Usage Analytics Table:

Payment & Webhook Logs:

Cloud Backup (paid plans only):

Saved Posts (Server-Side Search Index):

3.2 Why We Store Data on Servers

Server storage enables:

3.3 What is NOT Stored on Servers

These remain local to your browser only:

Note: Your saved post content may be stored on our server in two ways: on paid plans, it is backed up so your library can be recovered after a reinstall or on a new device (see Section 4); and, when you use our AI-powered search, the AI Chat Agent, or AI Tools (MCP) access, it is stored as a plaintext search index keyed to your Reddit username (the "Saved Posts" index in Section 3.1) so those features can search and reason over your saves. Both stores are encrypted in transit and at rest, but neither is end-to-end (zero-knowledge) encrypted.

4. Encrypted Cloud Backup (Paid Plans)

Paid Feature: Cloud backup is available on paid plans. When your subscription is active, your saved posts are backed up to our server (encrypted in transit and at rest) so your library can be restored after an extension reinstall or on a new device. On free plans, saved posts are kept locally in your browser and are not backed up to our server.

4.1 What It Does

On paid plans, Readdit Later backs up your saved posts and comments to our server. This ensures your library survives browser resets, extension reinstalls, or device changes without requiring you to manually export and re-import your data.

4.2 How It Works

  1. Your saved posts are stored in our Supabase database, keyed by your Reddit username
  2. Each post is stored as its own record so it can be restored accurately
  3. For paid users, backups run automatically after each sync (scrape) and after each save-click
  4. When you reinstall the extension or set it up on a new device, your library is restored from this backup

4.3 How Your Data Is Protected

Your backup is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and encrypted at rest in our database, with row-level security. It is not end-to-end (zero-knowledge) encrypted, however: because our AI features (semantic search, tagging, and AI-tool access) need to read your saves, our servers can access the stored post content. We do not sell your data or share it with third parties except the infrastructure providers required to operate the service.

4.4 What is Backed Up

4.5 Managing and Deleting Your Backup

You are in control of cloud backup at all times:

5. AI Tools Integration (MCP)

Readdit Later supports MCP (Model Context Protocol), an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools. There are two separate ways to connect your saves to AI tools, with very different privacy characteristics: a remote connector (uses our server, opt-in sync) and a local MCP server (runs entirely on your own computer, no server involved).

Opt-in Feature: The remote AI Tools sync feature is entirely optional. No data is synced to the server until you explicitly enable it by clicking "Enable AI Tools Access" in the extension.

5.1 Remote Connector — What It Does

The remote connector lets AI tools that support remote MCP servers — such as Claude (web, desktop, and mobile) via custom connectors — search and read your saves from anywhere. When enabled, the extension periodically syncs a lightweight copy of your saved posts to our server so these AI tools can access them on your behalf.

5.2 How It Works

  1. You click "Enable AI Tools Access" in the extension settings
  2. A randomly generated access token is created to authenticate AI-tool access
  3. The extension syncs your post metadata to our server every 5 minutes
  4. You copy a unique URL and paste it into your AI tool's configuration
  5. The AI tool connects to our server using that URL to read your saves

5.3 What Data is Synced

When remote AI Tools sync is enabled, the following data is stored in our Saved Posts search index (Section 3.1):

Your email address and Reddit OAuth session are never included. Note that this saved-post data is stored keyed to your Reddit username (see Section 3.1); the MCP access token controls who can reach it, but it is not stored anonymously.

5.4 Data Security

5.5 Data Retention and Auto-Deletion

5.6 Disconnect and Delete

You can disconnect from AI Tools at any time by clicking "Disconnect and delete server data" in the extension. This immediately and permanently deletes all your synced data from the server, revokes the sync token, and stops all future data syncing. No residual data remains on the server after disconnection.

5.7 Local MCP Server (No Server Involved)

Separately from the remote connector, Readdit Later offers a local MCP server (npx readdit-later-mcp) for AI tools that run on your computer, such as Claude Desktop and Cursor.

6. AI Features and Data Processing

AI Features Information: Our AI-powered features process your post content to provide summaries, sentiment analysis, and auto-labeling. Post content is sent to our server and then to AI providers (OpenRouter/OpenAI/Anthropic) for processing. Semantic search and the AI Chat Agent operate over the server-side Saved Posts search index described in Section 3.1.

6.1 AI-Powered Features

6.2 AI Data Flow

When you use AI features:

  1. Post content is sent from your browser to our server (reddit-later-server.vercel.app)
  2. Our server sanitizes and processes the request
  3. Content is sent to OpenRouter API (using OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini model)
  4. AI response is returned through our server to your browser
  5. No data is permanently stored by AI providers or our processing server

6.3 Data Minimization

To protect your privacy:

6.4 AI Chat History

Conversations with the AI Chat Agent are temporarily stored in your browser's local storage for up to 24 hours to maintain chat continuity. This data is automatically deleted after 24 hours or when you clear the chat history. It is never sent to our servers for storage.
