AI Content Filter

A short, plain-English statement of what the AI Content Filter browser extension does and does not do with your data.

// Overview

AI Content Filter is a free browser extension built by Forge Vertical. It hides social media posts and search results that the hosting platform (Facebook, Instagram, Google Search, or LinkedIn) has already labelled as AI-generated or AI-edited content.

In short: the extension does not collect, sell, or transmit any personally identifiable information. All content scanning happens locally in your browser.

What data is processed, and where

The extension reads the text and labels of pages you visit on the supported platforms, entirely on your own device, to detect AI-content labels the platform has already applied. This scanning never leaves your browser — no page content, browsing history, or identifying information is sent to Forge Vertical or any third party.

The extension stores two small values locally in your browser's own storage: a count of hidden posts, and your enabled/disabled toggle state. This local data stays on your device and is never transmitted anywhere.

Optional feedback

The extension's popup includes an optional feedback box. If you choose to submit feedback, the message text and the extension's version number are sent to a Firestore database controlled by Forge Vertical. This is the only data the extension ever transmits off your device, and it is entirely optional — nothing is sent unless you type a message and press submit.

Feedback submissions are anonymous: no name, email, account, or browsing data is attached to them. They are used only to guide future development of the extension.
