## 1. Overview
Youtube Faster ("we", "our", or "the extension") is a productivity extension developed for YouTube creators, internal employees, and authorized users to optimize YouTube Studio workflows, ad placement, playlist management, and comment management.
We are committed to protecting user privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines our data practices regarding the extension.
## 2. Information Collection and Usage
- **No Personal Data Collection:** We do NOT collect, store, track, sell, trade, or transmit any personal identifiable information (PII) to external servers.
- **Local Storage Only:** Any settings, comment templates, custom ad intervals, or channel preferences you configure within the extension are stored locally on your device using Chrome's `chrome.storage.local` API.
- **Session Authentications:** The extension reads public/authenticated session tokens directly from your active YouTube tab solely to execute user-triggered actions (such as mid-roll ad insertion or playlist creation) directly with YouTube APIs. These tokens are kept exclusively in local memory/storage and are never sent to third-party servers.
## 3. Data Sharing, Selling, and Transfer
- We **DO NOT** sell, rent, trade, or transfer any user data to third parties under any circumstances.
- We **DO NOT** use user data for advertising, marketing, profiling, or monetization purposes.
- We **DO NOT** engage in unauthorized data access, malicious code execution, or harmful tracking activities.
## 4. Use of Host Permissions
The extension requests host permissions strictly for functional necessity:
- `*://*.youtube.com/*` & `*://studio.youtube.com/*`: To render productivity UI overlays (ad buttons, playlist copy tools) and communicate with YouTube Studio endpoints.
- `*://docs.google.com/*`: To read public channel validation lists via Google Sheets API to verify authorized employee/user access.
## 5. Employee & Internal Testing Notice
This extension is intended solely for internal employee workflow optimization and user experience enhancement. It operates in compliance with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy and Limited Use Requirements.
## 6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect workflow improvements. Any updates will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date above.
