Privacy Policy for YouTube Watch Tracker

Effective Date: July 5, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the YouTube Watch Tracker extension ("we", "our", or "the extension") handles user data. We are committed to maintaining your privacy and ensuring that your data remains secure and private.

1. No Data Collection by Developers

The developers of YouTube Watch Tracker do not collect, view, store, or transmit any user data. We have zero access to your browsing history, activity, or personal information.

2. How Local Data is Handled

To provide its core functionality (tracking watch counts and notifying you when you replay videos), the extension reads and stores watch details strictly on your local device using the Chrome Extension Storage API (chrome.storage.local). This includes:

• YouTube Video ID: To identify and track individual videos.
• Video Title: To display the video name in your history list.
• Video URL: To allow you to return to the video from your watch history.
• View Counts and Timestamps: To keep track of when and how many times you watched a video.

This data never leaves your computer and is never uploaded to any remote servers, databases, or cloud services.

3. Data Sharing & Third Parties

Since we do not collect or receive your data, we do not sell, rent, trade, or transfer any information to third parties, advertising networks, or analytics services.

4. User Control & Data Deletion

You have full control over your recorded data:

• You can clear all recorded watch history at any time by clicking the "Clear All History" button in the extension's popup interface.
• Uninstalling the extension will automatically and permanently delete all stored watch history from your local device.

5. Compliance and Policy Changes

This policy complies with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies. We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected directly on this page.

6. Contact Us

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or the practices of this extension, please contact the developer via the support channels in the Chrome Web Store.
