Artificial intelligence features provided within the Add-on (available with specific plans) rely on third-party services, such as Gemini.

Your processed data is not used to improve Gemini services and is only monitored for security purposes.
Third Party Services
Third party services and software used with the Add-on are subject to their own terms, conditions and privacy policies. The terms in this Privacy Policy do not apply to such third party services or software where inconsistent with their terms, conditions or privacy policies.
The Application
Information Collection and Use in the app
The app provides web-based data management tools. We collect necessary account and license information for service administration and support.
Data you process using the classic app is handled confidentially, transmitted securely and is not stored by us.
Data you process using the Flookup AI web app is stored only as described in the "Flookup AI web app" section below.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information. You retain all rights to your data, including the right to request deletion of your account information. Transmissions to and from the app are encrypted.
Free Browser Tools
Information Collection and Use in the Free Tools
We publish a set of free tools on the Website, including CSV Wrangler, the Fuzzy Matching Tool and CSV Diff. These tools run entirely in your browser.
Files you open, paste or process in the free tools are handled locally on your device. They are never uploaded to our servers, never stored by us and never used for any other purpose.
To let you resume a session, a tool may save a copy of your file and your recent steps in your browser's local storage. This copy stays on your device and can be cleared at any time by discarding the session or clearing your browser data.
The free tools do not require an account, an email address or any payment. Anonymous visit data is collected on the free tool pages in the same way as on the rest of the Website, as described in the "The Website" section below. No file contents are ever transmitted.
The Website
Information Collection and Use on the Website
While using our Website, we may ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information that may be used to contact or identify you for licence-related purposes. Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to, your name or email address.
We use Google Analytics to understand how our Website is used. Google Analytics collects the page URL and time spent using cookies and similar technologies. This data is processed by Google under its own privacy policy and is not combined with any personal information you provide to us.
Cookie Usage
This Website uses cookies for analytics through Google Analytics, alongside functional cookies set by embedded third-party services (such as payment processing and spam protection) where necessary for their operation.
Our affiliate programme is powered by Lemon Squeezy. On pages that display affiliate links, the Lemon Squeezy affiliate script may collect a browser fingerprint (including screen size, fonts, language and similar device characteristics) and transmit the page URL and referrer to Lemon Squeezy to attribute purchases. This does not identify you personally.
Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us and protecting it is our priority. We use industry standard measures such as encryption, two-factor authentication and restrict database access to essential personnel only.
Your Personal Information is kept in strict confidence and is never shared with or sold to any third party, except that the Flookup AI web app uses the subprocessors listed in the "Flookup AI web app" section below, each receiving only the data it needs.
Notwithstanding the above and while we take all reasonable steps to keep your Personal Information secure and private, we cannot guarantee its absolute safety as no method of storage or transmission is completely infallible.
If you suspect or become aware of any breach of security, please
contact us
immediately.
