AI Download Accelerator by RP (the extension) helps manage downloads using a locally installed companion application. This policy explains what information is used and where it goes.
Information the extension handles
When you use the extension, it may process the file URL, filename, file size, download status, progress, and timing information needed to manage the transfer and show speed comparisons. If you enable comparison with ordinary Chrome downloads, the extension may store limited details about completed downloads, including the URL, filename, size, and duration. Settings, recent download entries, and comparison baselines are stored in Chrome local extension storage on your device. Up to 20 recent download entries and up to 20 comparison baselines are retained. This information is not sent to developer servers.
Download requests and cookies
The companion requests the file from the server at the download URL and saves it on your device in the Downloads/Accelerated folder. To support downloads that require an authenticated browser session, the extension may read cookies for the target URL and pass them to the companion as a request header. It may also pass the referring page address and browser user-agent. These values are used to make the file request and are not used for advertising or sold. The destination website receives the request and may process or log it under its own privacy policy. The extension does not alter or upload your cookie storage to developer systems.
The extension can inspect links and download related activity on websites so optional automatic interception and download features can work. Page information used for that purpose is processed on your device and is not sent to the developer. If automatic interception is turned off, ordinary downloads continue through Chrome, and the extension may record a local timing baseline for comparison.
Companion application
Accelerated transfers are performed by the companion application installed on your device. It receives the URL, filename, request method, any required request data, and relevant headers from the extension. It contacts the file server and writes the downloaded file locally. The companion does not send download records to the developer. The destination server may also have its own terms and privacy practices.
Sharing, analytics, and advertising
The extension does not operate a developer account, analytics, advertising, or cloud storage service for download data. We do not sell personal information. Information is shared only as needed to make a download request to its destination server and with Chrome as part of browser extension and download functionality.
Retention and your choices
Settings, recent download details, and comparison baselines remain in Chrome local extension storage until replaced, cleared, or removed with the extension. Downloaded files remain on your device until you delete them. You can turn off automatic interception in the extension, clear extension data using Chrome extension settings, or uninstall the extension and companion. Chrome may separately retain its own download history according to your browser settings.
Children
This extension is a general purpose utility and is not designed to collect information from children.
Changes to this policy
If the extension data practices change, this page will be updated before or when the change takes effect. Please review this page periodically.
