Data we collect
Account data
Sign-in identity, email address, display name, profile image, account tier, workspace settings, and authentication state through Firebase Authentication and Firestore.
Workspace and map data
Saved maps, topology content, publish state, comments, bookmarks, likes, forks, and related workspace metadata that you create or interact with.
YouTube page data
When you choose to analyze a YouTube page, the extension may read data from the active page such as title, description, chapters, comments, playlist/channel context, and available public metadata needed to build a topology.
Billing and support data
Payment-provider IDs, product/variant identifiers, entitlement status, support emails, and refund/cancellation metadata. Full card details are handled by the payment provider, not by Human Highlight.
How data is used
- To sign you in, maintain your workspace, and sync paid workspace features.
- To generate, cache, display, publish, moderate, and recommend knowledge maps.
- To enforce quotas, paid entitlements, Power Points, BYOK access, and abuse controls.
- To provide support, troubleshoot errors, handle refunds, and respond to legal or abuse reports.
- To measure site reliability and basic product usage through analytics and error monitoring.
Important boundaries
| YouTube history | Human Highlight does not need your full YouTube watch history. The extension reads the YouTube page you actively choose to analyze. |
|---|---|
| BYOK keys | Bring-your-own Gemini API keys are stored in the browser and sent only with BYOK AI requests to the Human Highlight server proxy. They are not written to the database as account records. |
| Public maps | If you publish a map, that map and its public metadata may be visible to other portal visitors. Private workspace material remains private unless you publish or share it. |
| Children | Human Highlight is not intended for children to create accounts without appropriate parent or guardian involvement. KidMap-style features are learning surfaces, not a child-directed account system. |
