Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to YouTube Chapter Notes. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you about how we handle your data when you use our Chrome extension.

2. Information We Collect

In the free version, we collect minimal information:

• Local Storage Only: All your saved chapters and notes are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API
• No Account Required: We do not collect email addresses or any personal identification information
• No Tracking: We do not track your browsing activity or YouTube usage
• Anonymous Usage: Basic extension usage analytics may be collected anonymously through Chrome Web Store

3. How We Use Your Information

Your data stays on your device:

• Saved chapters and notes are stored locally in your browser
• We do not have access to your saved content
• Your data is not sent to any external servers
• All processing happens locally on your device

4. Data Storage

All your data is stored locally in your browser using Chrome's secure storage API. This means your chapters and notes are saved only on your computer and are not synchronized across devices (in the free version). You maintain complete control over your data.

5. Data Sharing

We do not share your personal data:

• No Third Parties: We do not share data with third-party services
• No Selling: We never sell your data to anyone
• Local Only: Your chapters and notes remain on your device

6. Your Rights

You have full control over your data:

• Access your data anytime through the extension
• Delete individual chapters or notes
• Clear all data by uninstalling the extension
• Export your data using the share feature
• No account or authentication required to manage your data

7. Cookies

The extension does not use cookies. The website uses minimal cookies for basic functionality and analytics. See our Cookie Policy for more details.

8. Future Cloud Service

When we launch the optional cloud sync service ($3.99/month):

• We will collect email addresses for authentication
• Your chapters and notes will be stored securely on our servers
• Data will be encrypted in transit and at rest
• Payment information will be processed by Stripe (separate privacy policy)
• The free local-only version will always remain available

9. Security

Your data security is important to us. Since all data is stored locally in the free version, it benefits from Chrome's built-in security features. Your browser data is protected by your device security and Chrome's encryption mechanisms.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
