Privacy Policy for Billing Buddy

Last Updated: September 3, 2025

Thank you for using Billing Buddy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our Chrome extension. Our commitment is to your privacy and to providing a tool that is both useful and secure.

1. Introduction

Billing Buddy is a Chrome extension designed with a single purpose: to automate the process of transferring medical claim data between different billing websites. This policy outlines the data the extension accesses to perform this function and how that data is handled.

2. Information We Collect

To fulfill its purpose, Billing Buddy reads specific data from the web pages of the medical billing portals you use. This data is only accessed when you actively choose to use the extension's features.

The types of data we collect include:

• Personally Identifiable Information: Patient and provider names, date of birth, and member/account numbers.
• Health Information: Date of service for medical claims.
• Financial and Payment Information: Patient account numbers and other claim-related financial details.
• Website Content: The extension reads the text and values from form fields on billing websites to extract the information listed above.

We DO NOT collect:

• Authentication information (passwords, PINs)
• Your web browsing history
• Your emails or personal communications
• Your location data
• Any data unrelated to the medical billing process

3. How We Use Your Information

The data collected is used exclusively to automate data entry. The extension reads the information from one web page and programmatically fills it into the corresponding fields on another billing website.

Your data is not stored, saved, or transmitted to any servers. It is only held temporarily on your local machine during the data transfer operation and is discarded immediately after. We do not sell or share your information with any third parties.

4. Data Storage and Security

Billing Buddy does not have a server or database to store your information. All processing happens locally on your computer. The data is only kept in your computer's memory for the brief moment it takes to copy and paste it from one tab to another.

5. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy in the future if the extension's functionality changes. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the policy within the Chrome Web Store.
