Privacy
How your data is handled and how to maximize privacy
Ev3ry gives you control over where your data goes. The choice of browser provider determines the privacy posture of each extraction.
Data flow by connection method
Built-in browser (local)
- Browser runs on your machine
- Pages are loaded directly from your network
- No third-party browser provider sees your browsing activity or session cookies
- Extracted data is sent from your machine to Ev3ry's servers
- Saved logins (cookies/sessions) are stored encrypted on Ev3ry's servers
Use this for: sites with sensitive accounts, internal tools, healthcare, financial data.
Cloud browsers (BrowserBase / Browserless)
- Browser runs on the provider's servers
- Pages are loaded from the provider's network (their IP, not yours)
- The provider can technically observe page content and injected session cookies
- Extracted data flows from the provider to Ev3ry's servers
Use this for: public websites where the data is not sensitive.
What Ev3ry stores
| Data | Storage | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Extracted data (run results) | Encrypted at rest | Until you delete it |
| Saved logins (session state) | Encrypted at rest | Until you delete or they expire |
| Run history (actions, logs) | Encrypted at rest | Until you delete the website |
| Website URLs and settings | Encrypted at rest | Until you delete the website |
Recommendations
Use the local browser for sensitive sites. Your cookies and session state never leave your machine during browsing. Only the extracted data is sent to Ev3ry's servers.
Use dedicated accounts for extraction. Create a separate account on the target site used only for data collection, rather than your personal or admin account.
Rotate saved logins periodically. Re-export sessions regularly, especially for high-value accounts.
Delete data you no longer need. Remove run results and saved logins from the website settings when they're no longer required.
Review provider policies. If using BrowserBase or Browserless, read their data handling and retention policies for their session handling practices.
