UserAgent Switcher for Chrome ("the Extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data, use permissions, and ensure security while providing User-Agent spoofing functionality for web testing, privacy, and bypassing restrictions. The Extension is developed by Nalla Creations, and no user data is collected, stored, or shared.
The Extension’s sole purpose is to spoof and rotate your browser’s User-Agent string to mimic different browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox) and devices (e.g., Windows, iOS). It enables web developers, QA testers, and privacy-conscious users to test website compatibility, reduce tracking, or access restricted content. We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information, ensuring your browsing remains private.
No Personal Data Collected: The Extension does not collect or process personal information, such as browsing history, page content, or user identifiers.
Settings Storage: User settings (e.g., enabled state, rotation interval, selected browsers/OSes, custom User-Agent, domain exceptions) are stored locally on your device using Chrome’s storage.local API. These settings are only accessed to apply your configured User-Agent spoofing.
Export/Import: The “Export Settings” feature generates a JSON file with your settings, downloaded locally to your device. The “Import Settings” feature reads a JSON file you upload, applying it locally without external transmission.
The Extension uses the following permissions, all necessary for its functionality:
storage: Saves your settings (e.g., browsers, OSes, interval) locally to persist across sessions.
scripting: Injects a content script to spoof the navigator.userAgent property in the browser’s DOM, ensuring consistent spoofing.
downloads: Enables exporting settings as a JSON file for backup or sharing.
declarativeNetRequest and declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess: Modifies the User-Agent header for HTTP/HTTPS requests, respecting your exceptions list.
<all_urls>: Applies User-Agent spoofing to all HTTP/HTTPS pages, excluding user-defined domains (e.g., *.bank.com).
No permissions are used to access or collect personal data. All operations occur locally within your browser.
The Extension does not use remote code. All functionality (e.g., User-Agent rotation, DOM spoofing, settings management) is implemented in local files (background.js, popup.js, content.js, popup.html, popup.css) bundled with the Extension. No external scripts or resources are loaded, ensuring security and privacy.
Local Processing: All data processing (e.g., settings storage, User-Agent generation) occurs locally, with no external communication.
Transparency: Debug logs in the background console (chrome://extensions/ > Inspect background page) show User-Agent changes and settings updates.
No Third-Party Sharing: Your settings and usage data are never shared with third parties or used for unrelated purposes (e.g., creditworthiness or lending).
The Extension does not use third-party services, analytics, or tracking tools. All operations are self-contained within the Chrome browser environment.
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the Extension’s functionality or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on this page, with the “Last Updated” date revised. Significant changes will be communicated via the Chrome Web Store listing or by email to users who contact us.
