Privacy Policy

Cesio ("we", "us", "our") provides the Cesio Walkthrough Recorder Chrome extension and related Cesio services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use the extension and related Cesio walkthrough features.

Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to:

  • the Cesio Walkthrough Recorder Chrome extension
  • the Cesio web application and services used together with the extension
  • walkthrough recording, guide playback, and related account functionality

What the Extension Does

The Cesio Walkthrough Recorder helps users create, update, and review browser-based walkthroughs and step-by-step guides in Cesio. When a user starts a recording or guide session, the extension captures browser interactions and related context necessary to build those walkthroughs.

Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the extension, we may collect the following categories of information:

1. Account and identity information

When you sign in to Cesio through the extension or connected Cesio service, we may collect and process:

  • your name
  • your email address
  • your Cesio user ID
  • your workspace or tenant membership details
  • your avatar, if available

2. Authentication information

To recognize your signed-in Cesio session and connect the extension to your account, we may access authentication-related data such as:

We use this information only to authenticate you and provide the extension's core functionality.

  • session cookies associated with Cesio
  • session tokens or session identifiers required for authenticated requests

3. Walkthrough recording data

When you start a recording or recapture session, the extension may collect:

  • the URL of the page being recorded
  • navigation events
  • click, input, submit, and note events
  • interacted element details such as selectors, labels, and visible text
  • click coordinates and viewport dimensions
  • bounding box and layout information for interacted elements
  • screenshots of the visible tab during recording
  • walkthrough metadata such as variant name, scope, step association, and guide context

4. Website content

Because the extension records walkthrough steps on websites selected by the user, it may collect content visible on those pages as part of the recording workflow, including:

If a user records a page containing sensitive or personal content, that content may also be captured as part of the walkthrough.

  • visible text
  • button labels
  • form labels
  • screenshots
  • page structure details needed to recreate or guide a workflow

5. User activity

To create accurate walkthroughs, the extension may collect user activity that is directly related to the recording session, such as:

We do not collect browsing activity unrelated to the extension's user-facing walkthrough functionality.

  • clicks
  • form changes
  • submissions
  • navigation events
  • interactions needed to complete a recorded workflow

6. Local extension storage data

The extension may store limited data locally in the browser, including:

This local storage is used to support the extension's operation and user experience.

  • sign-in state
  • selected workspace
  • extension settings and configuration
  • popup form values
  • temporary recorder state
  • temporary guide state

How We Use Information

  • authenticate users in the extension
  • connect the extension to a Cesio account and workspace
  • create, save, update, and display walkthroughs
  • capture and upload walkthrough events and screenshots
  • support guide playback and step recapture
  • maintain extension session state
  • improve reliability, performance, and security of the extension and Cesio services
  • investigate abuse, fraud, bugs, or security issues
  • comply with legal obligations

How We Share Information

We do not sell user data.

We may share information only in the following circumstances:

We do not share user data with data brokers or advertising platforms for unrelated purposes.

  • with Cesio service providers and infrastructure providers that help us operate the product
  • within your Cesio workspace or organization, where walkthrough content is intended to be available to authorized users
  • when required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request
  • to protect the rights, safety, and security of Cesio, our users, or others
  • in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to applicable law

How Long We Keep Information

We retain information for as long as necessary to:

Local browser-stored data may remain until it expires, is replaced, or is deleted by the user or the extension.

  • provide the extension and Cesio services
  • maintain recorded walkthroughs and related workspace content
  • meet legal, security, accounting, or compliance obligations
  • resolve disputes and enforce agreements

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect user data. Data transmitted between the extension and Cesio services is sent over secure network connections.

However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Choices

Depending on how you use Cesio, you may be able to:

Users should only record workflows and page content they are authorized to capture and share.

  • stop a recording at any time
  • delete or discard a recording before saving
  • sign out of the extension

The extension and Cesio services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

International Transfers

If you use Cesio from outside the country where our systems are operated, your information may be transferred to and processed in other countries where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

Chrome Web Store User Data Commitments

The Cesio Walkthrough Recorder collects and uses user data only as necessary to provide its user-facing walkthrough recording and guide functionality. We do not sell user data, and we do not use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to the extension's single purpose.

Our handling of Chrome extension user data is intended to comply with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
