Summary

Upwork Proposal Helper is a Chrome extension that helps you draft proposal messages based on the job details you are viewing on Upwork.

Data we collect

We aim to minimize data collection.

Data processed locally (on your device)

The extension may read the text content of the Upwork job detail page you are currently viewing (e.g., job title and job description) in order to pre-fill the generator.

This data is processed locally in your browser.

Data stored locally (on your device)

The extension stores the following data locally using Chrome storage:

• Your settings (role, skills, proof points, availability, timezone)
• Generation history (the proposals you generated)
• Saved templates (your reusable settings presets)

This data stays on your device.

Data sent to servers

• No Upwork job content (title/description) is sent to our servers.
• At this time, the extension does not use external AI/LLM APIs for generating text.

If we introduce paid subscriptions (Pro) in the future, we may send minimal account/billing-related data (e.g., subscription status) to verify entitlements. We will update this policy before such functionality is enabled.
