We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to operating and improving the Extension.

3. Data Storage and Security

3.1 Where Your Data Is Stored

Your data is stored in two locations:

Local Browser Storage (Chrome)

  • Session tokens, which are encrypted by Chrome
  • An anonymous analytics identifier

Remote Cloud Storage (Supabase)

  • User account and authentication data
  • Color preferences database
  • License and subscription information
  • Analytics events

3.2 Security Measures

We implement the following security practices to protect your data:

  • All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS
  • Database access is controlled by Row Level Security (RLS) policies, ensuring that users can only access their own data
  • Session tokens are automatically refreshed and expire after a period of inactivity
  • We rely on industry-standard security infrastructure provided by Supabase

While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

3.3 Data Retention

  • Active accounts: Data is retained for as long as your account is active and you continue to use the Extension
  • Inactive accounts: Data associated with accounts inactive for more than two years may be deleted

If you believe we have collected such information, please contact us at [email protected].

8. International Data Transfers

We are based in the United States. If you are accessing the Extension from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where Supabase's infrastructure is located. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your country.

By using the Extension, you consent to the transfer of your information to these locations in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document.

For material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you, such as by displaying a notice within the Extension. Your continued use of the Extension following the effective date of any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
