LaterVault Privacy Policy
Last updated: 10 July 2026
LaterVault is a browser extension that saves web articles into a reading library stored on your own device. The short version of this policy: we collect nothing, we run no servers of our own, and your saved reading never leaves your device. The only things that ever leave your browser are described below, and none of them go to us.
What data LaterVault stores
Articles you save (their text, title, source address, and the date you saved them) and your reading preferences (theme, text size) are stored locally in your browser using its built-in storage. This data never leaves your device through us. There are no accounts, no sign-ups, no analytics, no telemetry, no advertising identifiers, and no crash reporting.
Network requests
LaterVault makes network requests in only two situations, and you start both of them:
- Importing text. If you import a reading list from another service (such as a Pocket or Omnivore export file) and press "Download text", the extension fetches each of your imported article addresses directly from the website that publishes it, so the text can be stored on your device for offline reading.
- Activating Pro. If you buy LaterVault Pro, you paste the license key you received into the extension and press Activate. The extension sends that key, and nothing else, to the license service run by our payment provider (Lemon Squeezy) to confirm it is valid, and rechecks it periodically. The key is used for this and nothing else; no information about you or what you read is sent.
Both go straight from your browser to those services. There is no intermediary of ours, and nothing about them is reported to us. The license check exists only for Pro: if you use only the free features, it never happens, and if you never import a reading list, LaterVault makes no network requests at all.
Your data is portable
You can export your entire library to a plain JSON file at any time from the library page, and delete any or all of it whenever you want. Uninstalling the extension removes its stored data from your browser.
Paid features (LaterVault Pro)
LaterVault offers optional one-time paid features. Payment is handled entirely by Lemon Squeezy, which acts as the merchant of record. When you buy Pro, your payment details are collected and processed by Lemon Squeezy under its own privacy policy; LaterVault never sees or stores your card or billing information. After purchase you receive a license key by email, which you enter into the extension to unlock Pro features as described under "Network requests" above.
