Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how JS Switch (the "Extension"), developed by Ilias El Barhoumi, collects, uses, stores, and protects your information. This policy applies specifically to the JS Switch browser extension and is separate from the ExtensionShop marketplace privacy policy.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. By installing and using JS Switch, you agree to the data practices described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

JS Switch collects the minimum data necessary to provide its functionality. Below is a complete breakdown of what data is and is not collected.

Data Collected

Data Not Collected

JS Switch does not collect the following types of information:

• Page contents — JS Switch has no content scripts and never reads pages
• Browsing history, unless you turn on the toolbar badge, and even then nothing is stored or sent
• Your Google account, name, email or any personal identifiers
• Analytics, telemetry or crash reports of any kind
• Cookies, passwords or session data
• Data sent to any first-party or third-party server — there is no JS Switch server

3. How We Use Your Information

Collected data is used exclusively for the following purposes:

• Providing and maintaining the core functionality of JS Switch
• Saving your preferences and settings for a personalized experience
• Diagnosing and fixing bugs or technical issues

We do not use your data for advertising, user profiling, or any purpose unrelated to the functionality of JS Switch.

4. Data Storage and Security

JS Switch stores data locally in your browser using the browser's built-in storage APIs (chrome.storage / localStorage). Data remains on your device and is not transmitted to external servers unless explicitly stated.

Data retention: Your site list and settings stay in your browser's extension storage until you delete them, click Allow everywhere, or remove the extension, which deletes them automatically. Chrome also removes every JavaScript rule JS Switch made when you remove it. Previews end when their tab closes.

5. Third-Party Data Sharing

None. JS Switch makes no network requests and uses no analytics, SDKs or servers. Three links open a normal browser tab only when you act: "Support" opens the developer's Ko-fi page, "Rate it" opens the extension's Chrome Web Store reviews, and uninstalling opens a short optional feedback form on Tally that receives nothing unless you fill it in and submit it.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for their marketing or commercial purposes.

6. Browser Permissions

JS Switch requests the following browser permissions. Each permission is required for specific functionality and is used only for its stated purpose:

No permissions are used to collect data beyond what is described in Section 2 of this policy. We follow the principle of least privilege and only request permissions essential for the extension's functionality.

7. Your Rights

You have the following rights regarding your data:

• Access: You can view all data stored by the extension through your browser's extension storage inspector
• Deletion: You can delete all stored data by uninstalling the extension or clearing extension data in your browser settings
• Opt-out: Optional data collection (such as analytics) can be disabled in the extension settings
• Portability: You may export your data where the extension provides export functionality
• Complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority if you believe your rights have been violated

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to rectification, restriction of processing, and the right to object. To exercise these rights, contact us using the information below.

8. Children's Privacy

JS Switch is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the extension's functionality or applicable regulations. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we will provide notice through the extension's update notes or a notification within the extension itself.

Your continued use of JS Switch after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
