Lenguia Browser Extension

The Lenguia Browser Extension is an optional extension available for Chrome (and other Chromium-based browsers such as Edge, Brave, and Arc), Firefox, and Safari. It enhances your language learning experience by connecting web content to your Lenguia account. This section describes how the extension collects and uses data. The extension behaves identically across all supported browsers unless noted otherwise below.


Authentication: The extension reads the Lenguia authentication cookie from lenguia.com to keep you logged in. Your session tokens are stored locally in the browser's extension storage and are never transmitted to any third party.


Page Content: When you choose to save an article, the extension extracts text content from the currently active web page. This content is sent to lenguia.com for processing (translation, word classification, flashcard generation). The extension does not read or transmit page content unless you explicitly trigger the save action.


YouTube Transcripts: When you choose to import a YouTube video, the extension reads the transcript from the YouTube transcript panel on the page. This transcript text is sent to lenguia.com for processing. The extension does not access your YouTube account or any private YouTube data.


Netflix Subtitles: When you activate the Lenguia Reader on Netflix, the extension reads subtitle text displayed on the page to provide inline translations. Subtitle text may be sent to lenguia.com for translation. The extension does not access your Netflix account or any private Netflix data.


Permissions: The extension requests the following browser permissions (identical across Chrome, Firefox, and Safari):

  • cookies: To read the Lenguia authentication session cookie from lenguia.com.
  • storage: To cache your session, preferences, and configuration locally.
  • activeTab / tabs: To identify the current page URL and title (e.g. to detect YouTube videos).
  • scripting: To inject the article extraction script when you click Save Article.
  • Host access to youtube.com and netflix.com: To extract transcripts and subtitles for language learning.

Data Storage: The extension stores your session tokens, user profile preferences, and cached configuration in the browser's local extension storage. This data stays on your device and is cleared when you log out or uninstall the extension. No data is sold or shared with third parties.


Chrome Extension

The Chrome version uses a Manifest V3 service worker for background processing. It injects a content script on YouTube pages to detect and extract video transcripts. The extension communicates only with lenguia.com and the Lenguia Supabase backend. It is also compatible with Chromium-based browsers including Microsoft Edge, Brave, Arc, and Vivaldi.


Firefox Extension

The Firefox version uses a Manifest V3 background script (as opposed to a service worker, per Firefox's extension architecture). It requests the same permissions and accesses the same data as the Chrome version. In compliance with Mozilla's Add-on policies, the Firefox extension declares the following data collection categories:

  • Required: Authentication information (session tokens to keep you logged in) and website content (article text and transcripts you explicitly choose to save).
  • Optional: Technical and interaction data (basic usage information to improve the extension).

Safari Extension

The Safari version uses a Manifest V3 service worker for background processing, similar to Chrome. In addition to the YouTube content script, the Safari extension includes a content script that runs on lenguia.com pages to facilitate communication between the website and the extension (e.g. for seamless login detection). It requests the same permissions and accesses the same data as the Chrome and Firefox versions. Safari requires macOS 13 or later (or iOS 16 or later).



Online Privacy Policy Only

Our Privacy Policy applies to our online activities and is valid for visitors to our website and users of the Lenguia Browser Extension (Chrome, Firefox, and Safari) with regards to the information that they shared and/or collect in Lenguia.com and the extension. This policy is not applicable to any information collected offline or via channels other than this website and the extension.
