Boonz is a browser extension that adds a small decorative creature to the bottom
of web pages. This policy explains exactly what data the extension does and does
not handle.
Boonz does **not** collect, transmit, sell, or share any personal data. It has
no servers and makes no network requests. The only data it keeps is a handful of
your own preferences, stored **locally in your own browser**.
Boonz uses the browser's local extension storage (`chrome.storage`) to remember
your preferences on your own device. Specifically:
- **On/off preference** — whether you've toggled the buddy on or off.
- **Appearance** — a one-time randomly chosen color for your buddy.
- **"Carrying a note" flag** — a single yes/no value indicating whether the
buddy is currently holding a copied note. **The copied text itself is never
stored.** Only the yes/no flag is kept.
- **Welcome-tip flag** — whether the one-time introductory tip has been shown.
- **Active-tab list (session only)** — a temporary, in-memory list of which open
tabs currently show a buddy, used for a cosmetic "party" animation. It is
cleared when the browser closes.
This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or any third
party.
- It does **not** collect personally identifiable information (name, email,
address, age, etc.).
- It does **not** read, store, or transmit the content of the pages you visit.
- It does **not** track your browsing history, clicks, searches, or location.
- It does **not** read your clipboard. It only reacts to the browser's own copy
and paste events on the page, and never records what was copied.
- It does **not** use analytics, advertising, cookies, or any tracking
technology.
- It does **not** send any data over the network. Boonz has no backend server.
- **`storage`** — to save the local preferences listed above (toggle, color,
the yes/no note flag, and the tip-seen flag). No page content is stored.
- **Host access (`<all_urls>`)** — so the buddy can appear on the pages you
visit. Page content is only used, in the moment, to render and animate the
creature (for example, noticing when a video on the page starts playing). It
is never collected, stored, or sent anywhere.
None. Because no data is collected or transmitted, there is nothing to share,
sell, or disclose to third parties, and no data is transferred outside your
device.
If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will be revised.
