Your data

Privacy policy

Last updated: 6 November 2026

Fixate is an AgentsLAN browser extension that presents web-page text one word at a time. This policy explains data use in the extension, on these support pages, and when you contact us.

The pages you read

Fixate accesses page text when you start the reader using its toolbar button, keyboard shortcut or context menu. The article or selection is processed in your browser. Fixate does not send that text to us, a payment provider or an AI service, and does not save a copy of the article.

Data stored by the extension

• Reading preferences: speed, theme, font, size, layout, compact position and other reader settings are stored in Chrome sync storage. Chrome may sync them between browsers signed in to the same profile, according to your Chrome settings.
• Trial start: the first-use timestamp is stored locally and in Chrome sync storage to track the 14-day trial across reinstalls.
• Usage and reading statistics: the daily article counter, words read, reading time and article counts stay in local extension storage. Monthly statistics are kept for up to 24 months, alongside lifetime totals.
• Article identifiers: short hashes derived from the page origin/path, word count and, for selections, a short part of the selection are stored locally to avoid counting the same reading twice. The original URL and selection text are not stored in these records. Hashes are identifiers, not a guarantee of anonymity. Up to 200 recent identifiers are kept for statistics; daily-limit identifiers reset with the daily counter.
• Plan and pricing information: the extension stores a payment-service account key, cached plan status and pricing information to check access and display plans.

Payments and network requests

Fixate uses ExtensionPay to check plan status, retrieve prices, open checkout and restore purchases. Those requests use the payment-service account key. Like other network services, ExtensionPay receives connection information such as an IP address. Article text, page URLs and reading statistics are not included in these requests.

If you buy Pro, you provide checkout information on the payment provider's pages. ExtensionPay uses your email to identify your purchase; Stripe processes payment details. Fixate does not receive your card number. We may use purchase and subscription information made available by the provider to support you. See ExtensionPay's privacy information and Stripe's privacy policy.

Support and this website

If you email fixate@agentslan.com, we receive your email address, message and any attachments you choose to send. Cloudflare Email Routing forwards support mail to our Google-hosted inbox. We use it to respond to your request and keep relevant correspondence as needed to resolve the issue, maintain support records or meet legal obligations. Please avoid sending passwords, payment-card details or private article text.

These static pages contain no analytics scripts, advertising trackers or contact forms. They are hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub may process technical request information to operate the hosting service; see GitHub's privacy statement. Cloudflare and Google also process support mail under their respective Cloudflare and Google privacy policies.

Purposes and choices

We use data to provide the reader and paid access, handle support, maintain service reliability and meet applicable legal obligations. Where a legal basis is required, these purposes rely on providing the service you request, legitimate interests in operating and supporting it, or legal obligations, as applicable. Fixate does not sell personal data or use reading activity for advertising or profiling.

Disable or remove the extension to stop it running. Removing it clears its local extension data; synced preferences and the trial timestamp may remain available through Chrome sync and other signed-in devices. Browser removal does not cancel a paid subscription or delete payment-provider records.

Limited Use

Fixate uses data obtained through Chrome extension permissions only to provide its speed-reading features, reading preferences, local usage statistics and paid-access controls. Fixate complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Reading text and activity are not used for advertising, sold, or transferred to data brokers. The developer does not receive or read the page text processed in your browser. Information you explicitly send for support is used to handle that request.

Privacy requests

Contact fixate@agentslan.com to ask about access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction or objection to processing, as applicable in your location. You may also contact your local data-protection authority. We cannot remotely inspect or delete data that exists only in your browser. Payment and support records may need to be retained where required by law. Service providers may process data outside your country under their own policies and applicable safeguards.

Changes

We will update this page and its date when these practices change. Material changes to the extension's data handling will also be described with the relevant release.
