Voilavu is a Chrome extension for screenshots and screen recordings, and this website, where recordings you choose to upload are shown and shared. Both are run by Ask Carlos Consulting, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This page says what they handle and why.

What stays on your computer

Screenshots, and the marks you draw on them. The extension keeps your last 5 screenshots in its own storage on your computer, and saves or copies one only when you ask.

Recordings, until you upload one or save it. Speech is written out into captions on your computer: no audio is sent anywhere to do it.

Notes for Claude, when you turn that switch on: what you click, choose and point at on the page you record, how the page answers, its error messages and its network calls (the address without its query, the status and the time; never headers, cookies or what was sent), and pictures taken from your recording. What you type is never recorded, only which field and how many characters, and nothing at all for a password. The notes are saved as a zip in your Downloads folder and are never uploaded by the extension. You decide whether to give them to anyone, for example to an AI assistant such as Claude.

Your settings, and the sign-in token that lets the extension upload to your account.

What is sent to this website, and only when you ask

With "Upload and open my page after Stop" on, or when you press Share: the recording, a short animated preview, its captions and its title. Nothing is uploaded while that switch is off and you don't press Share.

Your account: your email address, your name as shown on your videos, and your password, stored only as a salted scrypt hash.

On your video pages: the number of times a video was viewed, and comments viewers leave (the name they type, their words, and the moment in the video if they choose it).

Where it is kept

Videos and their files are stored with Cloudflare R2. The website runs on Vercel, in its Montreal region. Password-reset and sign-in emails are sent through Resend. These providers process the data only to run the service.

What we never do

No advertising, no analytics, no tracking across sites, no selling or renting of data, no use of your data to decide credit or lending. The extension loads no code from the internet: everything it runs, including the speech model, ships inside it.

No person at Ask Carlos Consulting looks at your recordings unless you share the link with us, ask us for help with one, or the law requires it.

Your choices

Delete a video on its page: the video, its preview, captions and comments are removed. Set a link to expire, and it stops working for everyone but you.

Turn off uploading, or Notes for Claude, at any time on the Record screen. Removing the extension removes everything it kept on your computer except files it saved to your Downloads folder.

Chrome Web Store Limited Use

The use of information received from Google APIs and Chrome extension APIs by Voilavu adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Data is used only to provide Voilavu's single purpose: capturing your screen to explain something, and sharing it when you choose.

Changes

If what we handle changes, this page changes first, with a new date, and the extension tells you before it does anything new with your data.
