Permissions and privacy
Updated February 18 2026
Disclosure
Checker Plus' use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically, data transferred to the Gemini API for Checker Plus Compose is used only to provide the user-facing AI features and is not used for any other purpose.
Limited Use
Personally identifiable information: If You choose to purchase the Products' extra features, only Your email address will be collected in order to identify Your paid status to unlock the extra features. Jason Savard does NOT collect any other personal information that the Products may have access to.
Financial and payment information: Financial and payment information when You purchase the Products' extra features is securely handled by trusted third-party payment processors such as PayPal and Stripe. Jason Savard does not collect any financial information from those transactions.
Authentication information: The three Checker Plus extensions use Oauth tokens to authenticate users, but none of this information is collected by Jason Savard.
Google user data: Google user data is accessed by the three Checker Plus extensions solely in order to display it to the user via the popup window or the notifications, which is the purpose of the Checker Plus extensions, except for the optional AI-powered "Compose" features (which utilize the Google Gemini API for text generation). For performance reasons, some information is stored locally in the extensions and can be removed by uninstalling the extension. For example: When opted in, contact emails can auto-complete. Google user data is not shared with anyone else other than You (the extension user). The extensions act as a conduit to the user's Google data.
AI-Powered Features (Checker Plus Compose)
Opt-In: AI features are deactivated by default. No data is sent to the AI model unless you explicitly use the prompt AI action. If you choose to use the optional Checker Plus Compose feature for AI-assisted writing and replies, the following applies:
Data Transmission: Only when you use the "Reply" prompts will the content of the specific email thread you are answering be transmitted to the Google Gemini API to generate a completion. To protect the security of the application and prevent unauthorized use of API keys, these requests are routed through a secure, sanitized and encrypted proxy server hosted by Jason Savard. This proxy server acts as a "pass-through" only. Your prompts and data are not logged, stored, or saved on the servers and the developer has no access to it.
Permissions and Security
The permissions You agree to when installing the extensions are the minimum requirements for the extensions to perform their basic purpose. Optional permissions which you may grant after installing the extensions give you more control and safety.
The Products were designed to use an authorization system via the industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol as a secure way to outsource user authentication. This means that Jason Savard does NOT have access to Your passwords. As per Google requirements, the extension Checker Plus for Gmail undergoes a mandatory and extensive annual security assessment.
Before you accept the permissions, it is strongly recommended to read the reviews. Jason Savard encourages you to read his many great reviews on the Chrome Web Store, many of which were written by developers who would have surely pointed out any suspicious behaviour. Jason Savard goes above and beyond most developers by including a video of himself.
