Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Multi-Platform Search Link Generator ("the Extension", "we", "our") handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

We want to be clear about what we don't do:

• We do NOT collect any personal information
• We do NOT track your browsing history
• We do NOT collect your search queries or keywords
• We do NOT transmit any data to external servers
• We do NOT use analytics or tracking tools
• We do NOT share any information with third parties
• We do NOT sell your data

3. Local Data Storage

The Extension stores the following data locally on your device using Chrome's storage API:

3.1 User Preferences

• Language preference: Your selected language (English or Chinese)
• Platform selection: Your last selected e-commerce platform
• Platform settings: Domain URLs and keywords for each platform

3.2 Search History

• Keyword history: Up to 20 recent product search keywords
• This data is stored only on your device and can be cleared at any time

Important: All stored data remains on your device. We have no access to this information.

4. Permissions Explained

The Extension requests the following Chrome permissions:

4.1 Storage Permission

• Purpose: To save your preferences and search history locally
• Scope: Data is stored only on your device

4.2 Tabs Permission

• Purpose: To open generated search links in new browser tabs
• Scope: Only used when you click "Open" or "Open All" buttons

These permissions are used solely for the Extension's core functionality and nothing else.

5. Data Security

Since all data is stored locally on your device:

• Your data is protected by your device's security measures
• No data is transmitted over the internet
• No risk of data breaches from our servers (we don't have any)

6. Third-Party Services

The Extension does not integrate with any third-party services, analytics tools, or advertising networks. When you generate search links and open them, you are visiting the respective e-commerce platforms directly, which have their own privacy policies.

7. Children's Privacy

The Extension does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Since we don't collect any data at all, the Extension is safe for users of all ages.

8. Your Control Over Data

You have complete control over your data:

• Clear history: Use the "Clear History" button in the Extension to delete your keyword history
• Clear all data: Uninstall the Extension to remove all stored data
• Reset settings: Clear your browser's extension data through Chrome settings

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

If we make significant changes, we will notify users through the Extension's update notes.

10. Open Source

This Extension's code is transparent and can be reviewed. We believe in transparency and encourage users to verify our privacy claims by examining the source code.

11. Compliance

This Extension complies with:

• Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies
• General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) principles
• California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) principles

Since we don't collect any personal data, most data protection regulations do not apply to our Extension.
