Meet Auto-Open ("we," "us," or "the Extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome Extension handles data. Our core philosophy is simple: Your data belongs to you, and it should never leave your computer.
Meet Auto-Open does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information to external servers.
Google Calendar Data: The Extension requests read-only access to your Google Calendar to identify upcoming Google Meet links. This data is processed locally in your browser. We do not see your meeting titles, descriptions, or attendee lists.
Authentication: We use the Google Chrome Identity API (OAuth2) to authenticate. We never see or store your Google password. The access token is stored locally on your device to facilitate calendar checks.
All data used by the Extension is stored using chrome.storage.local. This includes:
Your OAuth access tokens.
A list of meeting IDs you have already joined (to prevent duplicate tabs).
Your personal settings (e.g., whether to auto-mute or auto-open).
This data remains on your local machine and is deleted if you uninstall the Extension.
To function correctly, Meet Auto-Open requires the following permissions:
Identity: To securely connect to your Google Calendar without handling your login credentials.
Alarms: To schedule periodic checks for upcoming meetings in a resource-efficient manner.
Storage: To save your preferences and prevent opening the same meeting twice.
Tabs: To open meeting links and ensure you aren't already in the session.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to outside parties. Because your data is processed locally, there is no data to share.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
