Privacy Policy

Effective: January 27, 2026 Last updated: January 27, 2026

We don't collect your data. Everything stays on your device. We can't access your information even if we wanted to — no servers, no tracking, no telemetry.

Data Storage

All data is stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API. This includes:

None of this data is transmitted to us or any third party. It stays in your browser's local storage.

What We Don't Collect

We do not collect, store, or have access to:

We genuinely cannot see what you're doing with the extension. There are no servers on our end receiving data.

Premium License Validation

If you purchase premium features through Gumroad:

  1. You receive a license key from Gumroad after purchase
  2. You enter this key in the extension's Settings
  3. Your browser stores the key locally
  4. Your browser validates the key directly with Gumroad's API
  5. Validation happens periodically (approximately every 7 days)

What we see: Nothing. The validation happens entirely between your browser and Gumroad's servers. We never receive or have access to your license key.

What Gumroad sees: Gumroad receives license validation requests from your browser and handles this according to their own privacy policy: gumroad.com/privacy

Service Notes and Sensitive Data

⚠ Important: If you store passwords, API keys, or other sensitive information in service notes, this data is stored in plaintext in your browser's local storage. Anyone with access to your computer could access this data. Use a dedicated password manager instead.

We are not responsible for the security of data you choose to store in service notes.

Protocol Handlers and External Applications

When you launch services using protocol handlers (SSH, VNC, RDP, etc.), the extension constructs a protocol URL and your browser opens it with the registered application. The connection happens entirely outside the extension. We don't monitor, log, or have access to these connections.

Permissions Explanation

These permissions are necessary for the extension to function. None of them allow us to access your data remotely.

Third-Party Services

Gumroad (Payment Processing): If you purchase premium features, payment processing is handled entirely by Gumroad. We never receive or have access to your payment information. See Gumroad's privacy policy.

External Services: When you use protocol handlers or launch services, you're connecting to servers you own or manage. We have no relationship with those systems.

Data Retention

All data is stored locally on your device and persists until you uninstall the extension. You can delete profiles and services at any time through Settings, or export your full configuration as a JSON backup (Settings → Export All Data).

Children's Privacy

This extension is not directed at children under 13. We don't collect data from anyone, but we state this for legal compliance.

Changes to This Policy

If we change how the extension handles data, we'll update this policy with a new "Last Updated" date and note the change in the extension's changelog.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect your data, most data protection rights are already inherently yours. All data is stored locally on your device and is under your full control.
