WaitMint — Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-20 · Publisher: VisionQuantech (visionquantech.com)

WaitMint is a browser extension that shows one small, clearly labelled sponsored card while an AI chat tool is generating its answer — and shares the ad revenue with you. This page explains, plainly, what the extension does and does not do with data.

Full privacy, by design

WaitMint never reads, stores or transmits your prompts, the AI's responses, page content, or your browsing history. The extension detects one thing only: whether an AI chat page is in a "thinking / generating" loading state, using interface signals (stop buttons, streaming indicators, busy regions). It does not inspect what you type or what the AI answers.

Data transmitted

When a sponsored card is shown or clicked, one ad event is sent to the WaitMint backend (visionquantech.com) containing only:

• an anonymous install ID — a random UUID generated on first run, not linked to your identity — used to credit your share of revenue;
• the ad ID of the creative shown or clicked;
• the site hostname (e.g. chatgpt.com) — never a full URL, path, or conversation ID;
• the event type (impression or click).

No analytics SDKs, no fingerprinting, no third-party trackers, and no remote JavaScript — ad creatives are delivered as data (text and links) and rendered by the extension's own bundled code.

Data stored locally

Settings, per-day and total impression/click counters, your anonymous install ID, and a cached ad feed — all in your browser's extension storage, on your device, deleted on uninstall.

Earnings

Advertiser revenue is split three ways: 50% to the platform (WaitMint / VisionQuantech), 40% to users, and 10% to cited sources. At a $12 CPM a user accrues $0.0048 per impression. Balances are computed server-side from the anonymous events above; payouts are manual in v1 and start from a $10 balance.

What we do not collect

• No personally identifiable information, health information, financial or payment information, or authentication information.
• No personal communications — your prompts and the AI's responses are never accessed.
• No location, no web history, no page content.

The only data collected is anonymous activity — impression and click counts tied to the anonymous install ID — used solely for the extension's single purpose. Your data is not sold to third parties and is not used for purposes unrelated to the extension's core functionality.
