The post presents “no data collection” as a blanket claim, but Screenity’s own official materials say otherwise.

On Screenity’s privacy policy page, the company explicitly says: “We only collect what's needed to make Screenity work” and then lists categories it collects, including account information (name, email, Google account info), videos/edits/settings, IP address, support messages, and crash reports. The same policy also says that for paid users, Screenity collects and processes uploaded video/audio, transcripts, edits, and stores a session token locally to unlock paid features.

The Chrome Web Store listing also discloses that the extension handles “Personally identifiable information” and “Authentication information.”

To be fair, Screenity’s privacy policy says free users of the extension can use it with data staying local on the device and with “no account, no backend, no tracking.” But that is a narrower claim than “no data collection” without qualification. Because Screenity’s own official policy and store disclosure confirm that some data is collected/handled in multiple supported usage modes, the unqualified claim is inaccurate.
