ValueScout Show-me privacy policy
ValueScout Show-me is made by Layer10 for ValueScout, our AI discovery interviews. It lets you show your interviewer how you do your work, instead of only describing it.
When it records
It records only after you start a recording from your own ValueScout interview page, and stops when you stop it or the interview ends. It does nothing on its own.
What it records
- Steps: the names of the buttons, links and fields you click or use, such as "Click Create invoice" or "Type into Amount".
- Screenshots: one of the page you're working on at each step, with what you clicked highlighted.
- Page addresses: the site and page of each step, without the part after "?" or "#".
What it never records
- What you type into any field, including passwords and card numbers. Steps name the field, not its contents.
- The ValueScout interview page itself.
Screenshots show whatever is on your screen at that moment, so close or move anything you don't want shown before recording.
Where it goes
Steps and screenshots stay in your browser, on the interview page, until you send your next answer. You can remove any of them before sending. When you send, they go with your answer to ValueScout, where:
- our AI interviewer, Vera, uses them to understand your work and ask better questions;
- the discovery team running your organisation's assessment, and their consultants, can see them alongside your answers.
They are used only for that assessment, never for performance evaluation, advertising or anything else. We don't sell them or share them with anyone outside the assessment, apart from the cloud and AI service providers that run ValueScout for us, who process them only on our behalf.
How long it's kept
Screenshots sent with your answers are deleted when the assessment closes. Step names become part of your answer and are kept with the rest of the interview. The extension also keeps your recordings in your browser's own storage until you delete them there, or remove the extension.
Optional features
The extension has optional features, such as voice narration and AI step descriptions, that you can turn on with your own API key from a provider you choose. They're off unless you set them up, and ValueScout doesn't need them. If you use them, the text or audio involved goes to the provider you chose, under their terms.
Open source
ValueScout Show-me is based on Mimik, the open-source step recorder by Westpoint, used under the MIT licence. Its code is at github.com/Layer10AI/mimik.
