| <h1>Privacy Policy</h1> | |
| <p class="subtitle">Append to Google Doc - Chrome Extension</p> | |
| <p><strong>Last updated:</strong> January 2025</p> | |
| <h2>Overview</h2> | |
| <p> | |
| "Append to Google Doc" is a Chrome extension that allows users to quickly save selected text | |
| from any webpage to their Google Docs. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being | |
| transparent about how we handle your data. | |
| </p> | |
| <div class="highlight"> | |
| <strong>Key Points:</strong> | |
| <ul style="margin-top: 8px; margin-bottom: 0;"> | |
| <li>We do NOT collect or store your personal data on any server</li> | |
| <li>We do NOT sell or share your data with third parties</li> | |
| <li>All data processing happens locally in your browser</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| </div> | |
| <h2>Information We Access</h2> | |
| <p>To provide our service, the extension accesses:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Selected text:</strong> The text you highlight on webpages when using the extension</li> | |
| <li><strong>Page URL:</strong> The URL of the webpage where you selected the text (included as source reference) | |
| </li> | |
| <li><strong>Google Account:</strong> Used for authentication to access your Google Docs via OAuth 2.0</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h2>How We Use Information</h2> | |
| <p>The information accessed is used solely to:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Append your selected text to your specified Google Doc</li> | |
| <li>Include the source URL as a reference in the appended content</li> | |
| <li>Authenticate with Google to access your documents</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h2>Data Storage</h2> | |
| <p>The extension stores the following data locally in your browser:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Google Doc URL:</strong> The document you've configured to append text to</li> | |
| <li><strong>Authentication token:</strong> Temporarily stored to maintain your Google sign-in session</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p> | |
| This data is stored using Chrome's built-in storage API and never leaves your device | |
| except when communicating directly with Google's APIs. | |
| </p> | |
| <h2>Third-Party Services</h2> | |
| <p>This extension uses the following Google services:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Google OAuth 2.0:</strong> For secure authentication</li> | |
| <li><strong>Google Docs API:</strong> To append text to your documents</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p> | |
| Your use of these services is subject to | |
| <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" target="_blank">Google's Privacy Policy</a>. | |
| </p> | |
| <h2>Data Sharing</h2> | |
| <p>We do NOT share your data with any third parties. The only data transmission that occurs is:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Between your browser and Google's servers (for authentication and document editing)</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h2>Your Rights</h2> | |
| <p>You can:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Sign out:</strong> Remove Google authentication at any time via the extension popup</li> | |
| <li><strong>Clear data:</strong> Remove all stored data by uninstalling the extension</li> | |
| <li><strong>Revoke access:</strong> Remove the extension's access to your Google account at | |
| <a href="https://myaccount.google.com/permissions" target="_blank">Google Account Permissions</a> | |
| </li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h2>Security</h2> | |
| <p>We implement security best practices including:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Using OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication (we never see your Google password)</li> | |
| <li>All communication with Google APIs uses HTTPS encryption</li> | |
| <li>No server-side storage of any user data</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h2>Children's Privacy</h2> | |
| <p> | |
| This extension is not intended for use by children under 13 years of age. | |
| We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. | |
| </p> | |

| We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify users of any | |
| significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy. | |
