We cache certain user data locally on your device for improved user experience. This includes:

- Cookies are used to maintain your authentication state, enabling a seamless experience between the Cleeve web application and the Chrome extension. This allows you to save bookmarks from the extension without needing to sign in separately.
Data Transmission
When you save a bookmark using the extension, we send this data to our servers using the authentication provided by the cookies from the Cleeve web application.
How do we protect your information?
- Locally stored data remains on your device and is not directly accessible to us or third parties.
