Privacy Policy
Introduction
Text and Number Highlighter ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Chrome extension.
We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data.
The extension operates entirely locally on your device. We do not:
● Collect personal information
● Track your browsing activity
● Send data to external servers
● Share data with third parties
The extension uses Chrome's local storage API to store your preferences locally on your device:
● Highlight preferences (enabled/disabled states)
● Color selections for different highlight types
● Custom search terms and configurations
● Saved search profiles (stored locally in browser localStorage)
● Profile names and configurations
All data is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted to external servers.
The extension requires the following permissions:
● Purpose: Allows the extension to interact with the currently active tab to apply highlights
● Usage: Used only when you click the extension icon or interact with highlighted content
● Purpose: Allows the extension to inject content scripts into web pages
● Usage: Used to apply highlighting functionality to web pages
● Purpose: Allows the extension to save your preferences and settings
● Usage: Used to store your highlight settings, colors, and custom search profiles locally
● Purpose: Allows the extension to work on all websites
● Usage: Required to apply highlights to any webpage you visit
Important: The extension only accesses web pages when you explicitly enable highlighting features. It does not access pages automatically in the background.
The extension does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. No data is sent to external servers.
● All data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's secure storage APIs
● No data is transmitted over the internet
● The extension does not have access to your passwords, payment information, or other sensitive data
The extension does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. Since we do not collect any personal information, this is not applicable.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy.
Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. All settings and preferences stored locally can be:
● Modified through the extension's settings interface
● Deleted by uninstalling the extension
● Reset using the "Reset to Defaults" button in the extension
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us through the Chrome Web Store listing or by opening an issue on the extension's repository.
This extension complies with:
● Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies
● General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) - No personal data is collected
● California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) - No personal data is collected or sold
Note: The extension's core functionality is to detect and highlight numbers, currencies, years, and custom keywords on arbitrary web pages as the user browses. Access to all URLs is necessary to provide this functionality universally across websites.
Summary: Text and Number Highlighter respects your privacy. All data is stored locally on your device, and no personal information is collected or transmitted. The extension does not communicate with any external servers.
