Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 29, 2026

1. What GenCatalog Is

GenCatalog is a desktop application and Chrome browser extension that helps you save and organize AI-generated images and videos from platforms like Grok Imagine, Gemini, GPT Image, Rogue Studio, Midjourney, Higgsfield, Digen, and Venice.ai. It is developed and operated by Second Act Labs ("we", "us", "our").

2. Data the App and Extension Collect

The GenCatalog desktop app and Chrome extension do not collect personal information or browsing history. There is no account, no cloud sync, and no server-side copy of your catalog.

If you opt in, GenCatalog can share anonymous aggregate usage statistics that help us understand which features are useful, which supported platforms are working well, and where saves fail. This is event-counter telemetry, not raw event streaming.

Allowed telemetry is limited to things like feature counters, platform enum, media type, app or extension version, OS family, and success/failure reason codes. Telemetry is off by default, controlled in Settings > Privacy, and can be turned off anytime.

Second Act Labs never receives your AI images or videos, prompts, filenames, source URLs, tags, notes, collection names, file paths, thumbnails, hashes, item IDs, media IDs, source IDs, generated content, local catalog, or generation libraries. In plain English: we want to know which features are useful. We do not want your library. Ever.

3. How Your Data Is Stored

All library data generated by GenCatalog, including saved media files, prompts, metadata, thumbnails, tags, notes, and catalog databases, is stored exclusively on your local machine or external storage device. None of that library content is transmitted to our servers or any third-party service.

4. Chrome Extension Permissions

The GenCatalog Chrome extension requests the following permissions, each used solely for its stated purpose:

• activeTab: To detect AI-generated content on the current page and add save buttons to grid items and detail pages on supported platforms.
• storage: To store extension settings and local extension state needed for save workflows and server communication. This data stays in your browser and is never transmitted externally.
• downloads: To track a Gemini full-size image download after you click a GenCatalog save badge, import that file into your local catalog, and remove the temporary duplicate from Downloads.
• Host permissions for supported AI platforms: To access supported AI generation platforms including Grok Imagine, Gemini, GPT Image, Rogue Studio, Midjourney, Higgsfield, Digen, and Venice.ai. The extension reads page content to extract media URLs, prompts, and metadata for saving to your local catalog.
• Host permission (localhost): To communicate with the companion GenCatalog desktop application running on your local machine. All saved media and metadata is sent only to this local server, never to any external endpoint.

5. Network Communication

The GenCatalog extension communicates only with:

• Your local machine (localhost): To send saved media and metadata to the companion desktop app.
• Supported AI platforms: To read page content and download media files you choose to save from Grok Imagine, Gemini, GPT Image, Rogue Studio, Midjourney, Higgsfield, Digen, and Venice.ai.
• Lemon Squeezy API (api.lemonsqueezy.com): Solely for license key validation, approximately once every 7 days. Only your license key is transmitted; no personal data or usage information is included.
• GenCatalog telemetry endpoint (gencatalog.app): Only if you opt in to anonymous usage statistics. Payloads are aggregate event counters and never include library content.

GenCatalog does not communicate with any other external servers, APIs, or services.

6. This Website (gencatalog.app)

The website you're reading now is a normal website, and we treat it like one. It uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages people find useful — things like which page brought you here and whether you downloaded the app. Google Analytics sets cookies to do this. We don't collect names, email addresses, or accounts through the site, and website analytics never show us anything from inside your app library.

The site also remembers, in your browser's local storage, how you first arrived (for example, "came from a search engine"). If you buy a license, that gets attached to the purchase so we know which pages are actually earning their keep. That's the extent of it.

Website analytics are separate from the app's optional telemetry. The app telemetry toggle controls aggregate app usage statistics only.

7. Third-Party Services

Lemon Squeezy processes payments and license validation. Their handling of your payment information is governed by their own privacy policy. We do not have access to your payment details.

The GenCatalog app and extension do not integrate with advertising networks, social media trackers, or data brokers. Optional app telemetry is sent only to GenCatalog-controlled infrastructure.

8. Children's Privacy

GenCatalog is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of GenCatalog after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
