Local Data Storage
Some extensions (Quick Notepad, WordPress Cache Clearer) store data in chrome.storage.local. This storage is:
Confined entirely to your browser and device. Not synced to any external server. Not accessible to any third party, including the developer. Cleared when you uninstall the extension.
You can view and clear this data at any time by uninstalling the extension or using Chrome's extension management page at chrome://extensions.
Third-Party Services
None of these extensions send data to any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. There are no SDKs, beacons, or fingerprinting scripts embedded in any extension.
The only external network requests made by any extension go directly to URLs you explicitly configure (e.g., your own WordPress site in WP Cache Clearer) or to Google's own servers when parsing Google search result pages already open in your browser.
Data Sharing & Sale
We do not sell, trade, rent, or share any user data with any third party, for any purpose, at any time. This includes anonymised or aggregated data.
This policy is consistent with the Chrome Web Store's Developer Program Policies and the Chrome Web Store User Data Privacy Policy.
Children's Privacy
These extensions are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through one of these extensions, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
Changes to This Policy
If we update this privacy policy in a material way, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and (where required) update the policy link in the Chrome Web Store listing. Continued use of any extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
