## Privacy

**Data collected:**

- **Website Domain Names** — Domain names of visited websites (e.g., youtube.com) to calculate time spent per site
- **Time Spent Per Site** — Seconds spent on each domain per day, with hourly breakdowns
- **Anonymous Analytics** — Basic usage events (popup opened, upgrade clicked) sent to Google Analytics via Measurement Protocol — no personal data included

**Never collected:**

- Page content, text, or screenshots
- URLs beyond the domain name (no paths, queries, or fragments)
- Passwords, form data, or authentication tokens
- Personal identification information
- Browsing history shared with any server — all tracking data stays on your device

**Third-party sharing:** Browsing time data is never sent to any server — it stays entirely on your device in Chrome's local storage. Anonymous, non-identifiable usage analytics (e.g., feature usage counts) are sent to Google Analytics. License validation requests are sent to LemonSqueezy's API for Pro users only.

**Data retention:** All browsing data is stored locally and persists until you clear it from settings or uninstall the extension. Pro license status is stored with HMAC-SHA256 integrity protection. Analytics data is retained by Google for 14 months.

## Frequently asked questions

### What exactly does Aware Pro track?

Aware Pro tracks the domain name (e.g. youtube.com) and time spent on each website. It does not track specific URLs, page content, or anything you type. All data stays on your device.

### Does Aware Pro send my browsing data to any server?

No. All browsing time data is stored locally in Chrome's storage on your device. The only network requests are anonymous feature-usage analytics (e.g. "popup opened") sent to Google Analytics, and license validation for Pro users via LemonSqueezy.

### What's included in the Pro tier?

Pro unlocks unlimited history (free tier keeps 7 days), full site lists with detailed breakdowns, weekly summary notifications every Monday, and advanced statistics. There's a 7-day free trial.

### How does idle detection work?

Aware uses Chrome's built-in idle detection API. When you step away from your keyboard, time tracking pauses automatically so your stats reflect actual active browsing time.

### Can I export or delete my data?

You can clear all data from the extension's settings page. Uninstalling the extension also removes everything. Data export is not currently available but is planned for a future update.
