Technology Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2026

This policy covers the software products built by Bearded Vet Studios and listed on this site (technology.beardedvetstudios.com) — currently QuickInvoice, with more planned. Rather than a separate policy per product, this single page covers all of them: a shared section below describes our general approach to data, and each product then has its own section spelling out exactly what that specific product does, since the details genuinely differ product to product.

Our approach to data

Every product listed here is built local-first wherever possible: no ads, no analytics, and no account required just to use the free version. We don't sell or share your data — full stop. Some products offer an optional one-time Pro upgrade; where that involves a third-party payment processor, that relationship and exactly what it does or doesn't touch is disclosed in that product's own section below.

QuickInvoice

QuickInvoice is a Chrome extension that generates invoices and purchase orders from text you paste, a PDF you upload, or information you type in manually.

Data collection

QuickInvoice itself does not collect, transmit, or share any of your invoice, purchase order, business, or client data. It has no server of its own and no analytics. The one exception, described in full below, is the optional one-time Pro purchase, which is handled by a third-party payment platform rather than by QuickInvoice.

Data storage

Everything you enter — your business information, saved clients/vendors, invoice and PO numbering, invoice history, PO history, appearance preferences, and draft data — is stored only in your browser's local extension storage (chrome.storage.local), using the storage and unlimitedStorage permissions. This data:

One small exception: on the free plan, a monthly PDF-export counter (just a number and a "YYYY-MM" period — no invoice, PO, or business content) is stored using Chrome's built-in storage.sync rather than storage.local, so it travels with your Chrome/Google sign-in the same way your browser settings do. This is solely to prevent the free monthly limit from being reset by uninstalling and reinstalling the extension; it is not accessible to QuickInvoice's developer and contains no identifying or business information.

PDF and text processing

When you upload a PDF or paste text, it is read and parsed entirely inside your browser using a locally bundled copy of pdf.js. The file or text content is never uploaded anywhere.

QuickInvoice Pro (optional one-time purchase)

QuickInvoice Pro is an optional, one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited PDF exports, a custom logo, non-USD currencies, invoice/PO history, and CSV export. It is processed entirely by ExtensionPay, a third-party payment platform — QuickInvoice does not run its own payment or account system. If you choose to upgrade:
