Privacy Policy for BNBot
Last Updated: May 12, 2026
Introduction
BNBot ("we", "our", or "the Service") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy covers the BNBot Chrome extension and the BNBot desktop application. The Chrome extension does not work on its own — it is the browser-side helper for the desktop app, and the two halves are designed to be used together.
How BNBot works, in plain terms
The desktop app is where you tell BNBot what to do. The Chrome extension is a thin executor: when the desktop app asks, the extension reads pages you are currently viewing or performs an action you triggered (post a tweet, send a reply, save a bookmark, and so on) in your own browser session.
The extension pairs with the BNBot desktop app automatically over a local WebSocket on your own machine (127.0.0.1 / localhost). That channel is never exposed to the public internet.
The extension acts on social platforms inside the browser session you already have — it never asks for your password and never copies your cookies.
Information We Collect
1. Page content you ask BNBot to look at
When the desktop app asks the extension to look at a page you are currently viewing on a supported social platform (currently X / Twitter):
- The extension reads the page's DOM and the platform's internal API responses (timeline data, profile metrics, engagement data, account verification status).
- This is read-only — we never modify the platform's requests or responses.
- The desktop agent uses this content to draft replies, summarize threads, suggest next actions, and so on.
We do not crawl pages in the background, and we do not record your browsing history. The extension only interacts with pages relevant to a task you have actively started in the desktop app.
2. Actions you trigger
When you ask the desktop agent to post, reply, like, bookmark, follow,
or perform any other action, the extension carries out that action in
your existing browser session using its debugger capability (Chrome
DevTools Protocol). The outcome is sent back to the desktop app so it
can show you what happened.
3. Boost campaign detection
The extension can show visual indicators on tweets that have an active "Money Vision" boost campaign. To do this it:
- Extracts tweet IDs from your timeline
- Sends those IDs to api.bnbot.ai
- Receives back a list of which IDs are currently boosted
Only tweet IDs are transmitted — no tweet content, no author info, no information about you.
4. Local storage on your device
The extension stores your in-extension preferences and panel state in
Chrome's chrome.storage.local. Nothing else lives there that you
need to manage.
The desktop app keeps its own logs and history on your local disk inside its application data directory. The extension does not have access to that data.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your data, ever.
- We do not train our or anyone else's AI models on your tweets, replies, or messages.
- We do not run mass automation campaigns (no auto-like, auto-follow, mass DM, or similar). Every action originates from a request you made in the desktop app.
- We do not collect or upload your full browsing history. The extension only interacts with pages you have explicitly asked the desktop app to work on.
- The extension does not function without the BNBot desktop app — it is the browser-side helper, not a standalone product.
Where the data goes
| Data | Where it lives | Sent to api.bnbot.ai? |
|---|---|---|
| Pages BNBot looks at | Read into the desktop agent's working memory while a task is running | Only if you ask the agent to do something that requires our cloud (e.g. AI inference you signed up for) |
| Tweet IDs for boost detection | Sent to api.bnbot.ai for lookup | Yes (IDs only) |
| Preferences / panel state | Local browser only | No |
Third-party services
- api.bnbot.ai — our own backend. Handles the boost-campaign lookup and (when you opt in) cloud-based AI inference for the desktop agent.
- AI providers — if your plan uses cloud AI, the content you ask BNBot to act on is forwarded by the desktop app to AI providers we partner with. The Chrome extension itself does not call any third-party AI provider directly.
Data security
- All API traffic to api.bnbot.ai is over HTTPS.
- Local data uses Chrome's secure storage API.
- The extension ↔ desktop-app channel is bound to localhost and is never exposed to the network.
Data retention
- Preferences are kept until you uninstall the extension.
- You can remove all extension data at any time by uninstalling the extension. To remove desktop data, delete the BNBot app's data directory.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- Request deletion of your data — email support@bnbot.ai
- Uninstall the extension and the desktop app at any time
Children's privacy
BNBot is not intended for use by children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy. Material changes will also be announced inside the BNBot desktop app.
