PRIVACY POLICY FOR NEXUS NO WAIT ++
===================================
Last Updated: August 8, 2026
Nexus No Wait ++ ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to maintaining strict privacy standards for all users. This Privacy Policy outlines how our browser extension operates, what permissions it uses, and how user data is handled.
1. ZERO PERSONAL DATA COLLECTION
---------------------------------
Nexus No Wait ++ operates entirely locally within your browser.
• We DO NOT collect, store, transmit, or process any personal data, IP addresses, browsing history, user credentials, or account information.
• We DO NOT use any third-party analytics, tracking pixels, telemetry tools, or advertising frameworks.
• We DO NOT operate external telemetry or user-tracking servers.
2. LOCAL DATA STORAGE
----------------------
All configuration settings and preferences (such as auto-download toggles, VPN fallback mode, custom timeouts, and audio preferences) are stored strictly within your browser's isolated local storage (`chrome.storage.sync` and `chrome.storage.local`).
• This data never leaves your device.
• Resetting or uninstalling the extension instantly removes all stored configuration data.
3. PERMISSIONS & WHY THEY ARE REQUIRED
---------------------------------------
To deliver its automated features on Nexus Mods, the extension requires the following browser permissions:
• `storage`
Purpose: Enables saving your preferences locally across browser restarts so your settings are remembered.
• `downloads`
Purpose: Required to initiate file downloads automatically when you click mod download links on Nexus Mods, and to optionally rename downloaded files with Mod IDs for better file organization.
• Host Permissions (`https://*.nexusmods.com/*`, `https://*.nexus-cdn.com/*`, `https://files.nexus-cdn.com/*`, `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/*`)
Purpose:
- Interacting with Nexus Mods web pages to bypass artificial 5-second countdown timers and requirement popups.
- Resolving direct file download links from official Nexus Mods content delivery networks (CDNs).
- Fetching optional open-source notification sound assets hosted on GitHub.
4. THIRD-PARTY REQUESTS & NETWORK SECURITY
-------------------------------------------
All network requests made by the extension are direct client-side communications between your browser and official Nexus Mods servers (`nexusmods.com` / `nexus-cdn.com`). No intermediate proxy or third-party server intercepts or reads your requests.
5. OPEN SOURCE & TRANSPARENCY
------------------------------
Nexus No Wait ++ is 100% Free and Open-Source Software released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPL-3.0). Anyone can inspect, verify, or contribute to the source code on GitHub.
6. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
----------------------------------
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in browser extension requirements or web store policies. Any changes will be published in the extension repository.
7. CONTACT INFORMATION
