Privacy Policy

Effective June 1, 2026

Who we are

Tote (tote.tools) is a product-saving tool that lets you keep track of items from any online store. Tote is operated by Bloom Interactive LLC (gobloom.io).

What data we collect

When you explicitly save a product — via the browser extension popup, the iOS Share Sheet, or the in-app save flow — we extract metadata from that page:

  • Page title
  • Product description
  • Image URL
  • Price and currency
  • Brand name
  • Page URL

We only extract this metadata when you take an explicit action. Tote does not run in the background, scan your browsing history, or collect data from pages you don’t save.

The iOS Share Extension reads only the URL you share to it. It does not access any other content from the app you are sharing from.

How your data is stored and synced

Tote uses Jazz, a local-first sync engine. Your data is stored locally on your device first, then synced with end-to-end encryption through Jazz’s relay infrastructure. The relay cannot read your data — only your devices hold the decryption keys.

All data is transmitted over HTTPS.

Authentication

Tote uses Clerk for authentication. You can sign in with Google, Apple, or email. When you sign in, your account information is sent to Clerk’s servers. Clerk’s handling of this data is governed by their privacy policy.

If you use Sign in with Apple, Apple may anonymize your email address before sharing it. Tote does not receive any additional information from Apple beyond what is needed to create or identify your account.

Aggregate usage data

We may sync roll-up statistics to your account — for example, the number of collections, saved links, or shares — for subscription management and service limits. These stats contain no browsing history, page content, or personally identifiable information beyond what is already in your account.

Public collections

Tote lets you optionally share a collection as a public link. This is entirely opt-in — collections are private by default.

When you publish a collection, the product metadata it contains (titles, descriptions, images, prices, and URLs) becomes publicly accessible to anyone with the link. Published collections may also be indexed by search engines.

You can unpublish a collection at any time, which removes the public copy. You remain in control of what you share and when.

What we don’t do

  • No analytics or tracking scripts
  • No browsing history collection
  • No advertising
  • No selling or sharing your data with third parties
  • No profiling or behavioral targeting
  • No use of advertising identifiers (IDFA) or cross-app tracking

Third-party services

Tote relies on the following third-party services:

  • Clerk — Authentication and account management. Clerk Privacy Policy
  • Jazz — Local-first data sync with end-to-end encryption. Jazz Privacy Policy
  • Apple — Sign in with Apple (iOS only). Governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy.
  • Anthropic — Powers the AI chat feature. When you use the chat assistant, your query and relevant product and collection data are sent to Anthropic’s API to generate a response. This only occurs when you actively use the chat feature. Anthropic Privacy Policy.
  • Brave Search — The AI chat feature may query Brave Search to look up current product information on your behalf. Search queries contain only product-related terms, not personal information. Brave Search Privacy Policy.

Data deletion

You can delete any saved product or collection at any time from within Tote. To delete your entire account and all associated data, go to Settings on the web or in the iOS app and use the Delete Account option, or contact us at support@gobloom.io.
