PRIVACY BY DEFAULT
Page text is processed locally in the browser for this extension’s read-aloud functionality. The extension does not upload webpage text to SpeakMyDoc, collect browsing history, sell personal information, or display advertising.
The extension only accesses the active webpage after the user invokes it. Voice, speed, and local playback preferences are stored on the user’s device.
Some voices provided by Chrome or the operating system may use the platform provider’s online speech service. Voice availability depends on the user’s browser, operating system, and installed voices.

SpeakMyDoc also provides optional account-based tools on its website, including:
• PDF, DOCX, and EPUB reading
• Natural cloud voices
• Scanned PDF OCR
• Saved reading progress
• Translation and bilingual playback
• MP3 export
• Long-document processing
These website features are optional. An account or paid subscription is not required for local webpage reading with the Chrome extension.
LIMITATIONS
Chrome does not allow extensions to access protected pages such as chrome:// pages, the Chrome Web Store, and certain built-in browser pages.
