Privacy Policy
Bilateral Beats Chrome Extension
Effective date: November 11, 2026
Data the Extension Handles
- Tab audio: When you press Record, the extension captures audio from the active tab. Capture ends when you stop the recording. The extension routes the captured audio back to tab playback so you can continue hearing it.
- Track title: The extension may read the active page's Open Graph title and tab title to suggest a track title. You can edit the title. The extension does not collect browsing history or send the page URL as part of the upload.
- Processing mode: The selected bilateralization mode is sent with the recording.
- API key: Your Bilateral Beats API key is stored in Chrome's local extension storage and is sent to the Bilateral Beats API to authenticate an upload.
How Data Is Used and Shared
When you choose Stop & Upload, the recording, title, and mode are sent over HTTPS to Bilateral Beats at bilateral-beats.app. The service associates the upload with your account, stores the original audio, and processes it into a track in your library. The API key is used to authenticate this request.
Production error monitoring is configured to send diagnostic events to Sentry. This diagnostic information includes no personally identifiable information, only what we need to reproduce the error and continue improving.
We do not use extension data for advertising.
Storage and Retention
The API key remains in Chrome local extension storage until you remove it or uninstall the extension. Uploaded audio and resulting tracks are associated with your Bilateral Beats account and stored by the service.
Once the upload is in your Bilateral Beats account, you are able to view, re-mix, and download your Bilateralized music. You can delete your content whenever you like, and delete your account at your leisure.
Security
Uploads use HTTPS. The API key is stored using Chrome's local extension storage and is not synchronized by this extension. Anyone with access to your browser profile may be able to access local extension data; protect your device and revoke API keys you no longer use.
Your Choices
Recording only begins after you start it from the extension. The recording is uploaded when you choose Stop & Upload; you can avoid capture and upload by not starting a recording. You can remove the API key from the extension's local storage or revoke it from your Bilateral Beats account.
