1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how your data is collected, used, and protected when using the "YouTube Text Search" Chrome Extension. We value your privacy and are committed to being transparent about our practices.
2. Data Collection
The Extension does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII). The only data that the Extension processes is the text you select for searching on YouTube. This selected text is processed locally on your device to generate a search query, and no data is sent to external servers.
3. Data Usage
The Extension uses selected text to generate a YouTube search URL, which is then opened in a new browser tab. This process is entirely local, and the data is not stored or transmitted to any third-party servers.
4. Permissions
- ContextMenus: The Extension requires the `contextMenus` permission to add an option in the right-click menu, allowing you to search selected text on YouTube conveniently.
- Tabs: The Extension uses the `tabs` permission to open the YouTube search result in a new tab. This is strictly for creating new tabs to streamline the user experience.
5. Third-Party Services
This Extension does not integrate with or send data to any third-party services. Any search conducted is done directly in the YouTube platform through a browser tab.
6. Data Sharing
We do not share your data with third parties. The Extension functions independently, processing all data locally on your device.
7. Security
Your privacy and data security are important to us. The Extension does not collect, store, or transmit any user data, minimizing any privacy or security risks. All functionality is performed locally within your browser environment.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected with an updated "Last Updated" date at the top of this document.
