Google Search Sponsor Link Remover & Customizer
This Privacy Policy explains how the Google Search Sponsor Link Remover & Customizer extension handles user data.
Data Collection
This extension does not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal or sensitive user data. No personally identifiable information, browsing history, or user activity is collected.
Storage Permission
The extension uses the Chrome storage permission only to save user preferences locally on the user’s device. These preferences include settings such as whether sponsored links are hidden or how Google Search results are visually customized. This data remains entirely local and is never transmitted outside the browser.
Tabs Permission
The tabs permission is used only to detect when a Google Search results page is active so the extension can apply user selected customizations. The extension does not read, monitor, or record browsing history, page content, or user behavior.
Host Permissions
Host permissions are limited strictly to Google Search result pages, including:
These permissions are required to identify and modify sponsored elements directly within the page’s DOM. The extension does not access or interact with any other websites.
Remote Code
This extension does not use remote code. All scripts are bundled within the extension package and executed locally. No external servers, APIs, or third-party scripts are used.
Data Sharing
The extension does not sell, transfer, or share user data with third parties. No data is used for advertising, analytics, tracking, or profiling.
Security
All processing occurs locally within the browser. Since no user data is collected or transmitted, the risk of data exposure is minimized.
Changes
If this Privacy Policy changes in the future, it will be updated on the Chrome Web Store listing.
