LockedIn is a Chrome extension that blocks the LinkedIn home feed on a schedule or timer and shows how much time you spend consuming versus creating on LinkedIn. This policy explains what it stores and what it does not do.
Everything stays in your browser. LockedIn does not collect, send, sell or share any personal data. It has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no servers.
Your settings: your schedule, focus timer end time, pass time, hide options and theme. These are saved with Chrome's storage so they work between sessions, and they sync across your own Chrome profiles if you have Chrome sync turned on.
Daily time totals: the number of seconds per day you spent on LinkedIn consuming (anything other than typing) and creating (typing in a post, comment or message box). Only these totals are stored. LockedIn does not record what you read, what you type, who you talk to or which pages you visit. These totals stay on your device and are kept for about 60 days.
To count active time and typing time, LockedIn notices when you move the mouse, scroll, click or press keys on LinkedIn. It does not record which keys you press or what you type. This signal is used in the moment, is not saved and is never sent anywhere. Only the daily second totals described above are kept.
It does not read, copy or transmit the content of LinkedIn pages, your profile, your messages or your keystrokes.
It does not send any data to the developer or to any third party.
It does not use cookies, trackers or remote code.
LockedIn uses Chrome's storage permission to save the items above, and it runs only on www.linkedin.com so it can hide the feed and other elements you choose and measure time on the page.
LockedIn's popup contains an optional link to the developer's Buy Me a Coffee page (buymeacoffee.com/jkola). Clicking it opens that website in a new tab, and Buy Me a Coffee's own privacy policy applies there. LockedIn does not send any information when you click it.
You can clear your time totals at any time from LockedIn's Support page. Removing the extension deletes its locally stored data. Settings synced through your Google account are removed according to Chrome's sync controls.
LockedIn is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from anyone.
LockedIn is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a trademark of LinkedIn Corporation.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this address with a new date.
