Privacy, in plain words.

What BRO reads

• The page you ask about, at the moment you ask: its address, title, headings and the words you can see.
• Text you highlight and send to BRO, links you paste or share to it, and the place you type for “What’s on near me”.
• If you choose “Use my location”, only a rough area (rounded to about 10 km), never your exact spot.
• On a site where you turn on “always”, the same things each time you open a page there. You can turn it off any time.

What BRO never reads

• Passwords, one-time codes, card numbers, or anything you type into a form.
• Bank, health, email, password-manager, sign-in and payment pages. On those, BRO can only check the link itself.
• Private or incognito windows, other tabs, or anything after you leave the page.
• Other apps on your phone. Phones don’t allow it, and BRO doesn’t try.

What BRO keeps

• A count of how many uses you’ve had today, so free uses and credits work.
• Your settings (like quiet mode and sites you excluded) on your own device.
• History only if you turn it on. It stays on your device, and you can delete one item or everything.
• We don’t keep a browsing history, sell what you do, or use it to target ads.

Who handles a request

When you ask, the page text goes over an encrypted connection to the BRO service on az.ai, which writes the answer. BRO doesn’t save the page text. Link checks may look the address up on public phishing lists. Event and price searches look at public listings.

Our own sites

When BRO suggests a site we run, it’s labelled “BRO network (we run this site)” and shown next to independent options. It never changes a safety result.

Your controls

• Pause BRO with one switch, or add a site to “never read this site”.
• Sign out on a device to stop it using your account.
• Delete history and settings on a device from BRO’s settings.
