Understanding the Alert Screen
When the extension detects sensitive data in a message you are about to send, it shows an alert screen.
What the alert looks like
Your three choices
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Edit Message | Goes back to the chat so you can rewrite your message |
| Send Redacted | Replaces the sensitive data with safe placeholders (e.g., [REDACTED_CREDIT_CARD_1]) and sends the cleaned message |
| Send Unredacted | Sends the original message as-is, ignoring the warning |
tip
"Send Redacted" is the safest option. The AI will still understand your message, but your real data stays private.
How redaction looks in practice
What you typed:
Please check my account. My email is jane@example.com and card ending 4111 1111 1111 1111.
What gets sent after redaction:
Please check my account. My email is [REDACTED_EMAIL_1] and card ending [REDACTED_CREDIT_CARD_1].
