Walter Browser Co-Pilot

The Co-Pilot is a Chrome extension that lets Walter — your organisation's assistant — work websites with you, in your own browser. This page explains what it looks at, where that information goes, and what stays entirely under your control. The short version: everything it captures goes to your organisation's own Walter server and nowhere else, and it only ever looks at the tabs it opened for a task you asked for.

Where your information goes

The extension talks to exactly one place: the Walter server address you typed in when you connected it. That server belongs to your organisation. Nothing is ever sent to us, to Google, to advertisers, or to anyone else.

Because everything lives on your organisation's own server, it's covered by your organisation's privacy arrangements — the same ones that cover the rest of your work in Walter.

What it captures during a session

When you (or Walter, at your request) open a portal session, the extension captures things from that one tab so the assistant can see what it's working on:

What's on the page — the page's structure and screenshots of the tab
The address of the page it's on
Files you download in that tab, which land in your Walter conversation's workspace
A log of the actions taken, which you can read in the session record

What it captures while you're teaching

Teach mode is how you show Walter a workflow by doing it yourself. It only records after you click Enable recording, and while it's on there's a badge on the page so you can't forget. It records the clicks you make and the fields you fill on the portal you're demonstrating — except passwords, which are masked and never leave your browser.

What stays on your computer

The extension keeps just two things in your browser: your Walter server's address, and the list of tabs it currently has open for sessions (that list clears itself when you close Chrome).

What it never does

It never reads or touches your other tabs — only the ones it opened for a session
It never collects your browsing history
It never reads cookies from any site other than your own Walter server
It never captures your passwords — logging in is always done by you, directly in the page
It never sells or shares your information, and never uses it for advertising or anything beyond the task you asked for

You're always in control

Whenever the assistant is able to act, Chrome shows its "is debugging this browser" banner — dismiss it, close the tab, or press End in the Walter chat and the session stops immediately. Recording in teach mode can be paused or ended from the side panel at any time.
