Privacy policy

ReturnPilot - GST Return Downloader - your data, on your machine

Effective 1 March 2026 · This policy is short on purpose: the product is built so there is very little to say.

Data we process

Only what you see on gst.gov.in: filed return data you view (GSTR-3B, GSTR-1, GSTR-1A, GSTR-2A, GSTR-2B, IMS, GSTR-9, GSTR-9C), login credentials you choose to save (stored only in your browser). Nothing else in your browser is read, accessed or modified.

What stays on your machine

All conversion (JSON / PDF / Excel) happens locally in your browser. Your filed return data you view (GSTR-3B, GSTR-1, GSTR-1A, GSTR-2A, GSTR-2B, IMS, GSTR-9, GSTR-9C), login credentials you choose to save (stored only in your browser) and any saved login credentials never leave your computer.

Google Sign-In & Profile Data

When you sign in with Google, we receive only your basic profile info (Email address, Name, and Profile Picture) to verify your identity and unlock your Premium subscription. We NEVER request or access your Gmail, Google Drive, or private account data.

What we store for Premium

To deliver Premium, we securely store your email and subscription status (plan & expiry) in a cloud database, accessed only through our server-side functions. Payments are processed by Razorpay; invoices are emailed by our transactional provider.

Saved logins

If you choose to save login credentials, they are stored only in your browser's secure extension storage - never on our servers, and never visible to us.

No trackers, no selling

We do not use advertising trackers or analytics, and we never sell or rent your data. The extension communicates only with the official portal you are already signed in to.

Your rights & Deletion

Uninstall at any time - all local data is removed. You can unlink Google Sign-In or request deletion of your stored subscription record anytime by emailing support@kasyhq.com.

Full privacy policy: Read the complete Privacy Policy - covers Google Sign-In data, payments, invoices and retention.
