3. Data We Collect
When you use the Hemlo extension and website, the following data may be processed:
- Property listing data displayed publicly on Hemnet, Booli, Boneo, and Idealista (e.g. price, address, association name) — extracted from the page to provide analysis.

- Chat messages — sent to the Hemlo API when you actively chat with the AI advisor.
- Watchlist selections — requires an account and is stored in Hemlo's database.

- Does not use cookies.
- Does not collect browsing history.
- Does not collect personal data beyond email address (when creating an account).
5. Browser Storage
The extension uses browser storage as follows:

- Local storage: chat history, dismissed URLs, and language preference — stored locally in your browser.
6. Third Parties
Hemlo communicates only with Hemlo's own API (hemlo.se). No data is shared with third parties. The extension contains no third-party analytics or tracking libraries.
