Privacy Policy

Effective Date: February 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy governs the data handling practices of the Manipulate! Chrome Extension ("the Extension"). We are committed to transparency and data minimization. Unlike many other browser tools, Manipulate! is built to operate entirely locally on your machine.

1. Local Processing & Data Minimization

The Extension operates on a 100% local execution model. All text manipulation, font adjustments, and style changes occur solely within your browser's active tab.

We strictly adhere to the following principles:

• No External Servers: We do not own, rent, or manage any servers to process your data.
• No Analytics Tracking: We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixels, or any other tracking software to monitor your usage behavior.
• No User Profiling: We do not build profiles based on the websites you visit or the content you edit.

2. Information Collection and Use

Since the Extension does not transmit data, we simply do not collect your personal information. Specifically:

• Personal Data: We do not collect names, email addresses, or phone numbers.
• Browsing History: We do not read or store your browsing history. The extension only interacts with the specific web page tab where you explicitly activate it.
• Edited Content: The text you manipulate remains in your browser's temporary memory (RAM) and is discarded as soon as you refresh the page or close the tab.

3. Permissions Explained

To function correctly, the Extension requires specific permissions from Chrome. These are used strictly for functionality, not for surveillance:

• activeTab: Required to inject the editor panel only into the tab you are currently using. This ensures the code runs only when triggered by you.
• contextMenus: Required to add the "Manipulate!" option to your right-click menu for easy access.

4. Zero Third-Party Sharing

Because we do not collect any user data, it is technically impossible for us to sell, trade, or share your information with third parties, advertisers, or data brokers. Your privacy is protected by the architecture of the software itself.

5. Contact & Support

If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or the security of the Extension, you may contact the developer directly.
