Last Updated: March 27 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to GenerateAPassword! This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome extension handles user data, ensuring transparency and compliance with privacy best practices. Your security and privacy are our top priorities.
2. Information Collection
2.1 Personal Data
GenerateAPassword does not collect or store any personal data such as names, email addresses, or contact details.
2.2 Usage Data
The extension does not track user behavior, browsing history, or analytics. All actions performed within the extension remain private to the user.
2.3 Technical Data
GenerateAPassword operates locally on your device and does not collect or transmit any technical data (e.g., IP addresses, browser type, or system information) to external servers.
3. Use of Information
Since GenerateAPassword does not collect any user data, no information is used, processed, or shared with third parties. All stored passwords and notes remain encrypted and locally saved within the user’s browser storage.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not share, sell, or disclose user data with any third parties. Since all data remains on the user’s local device, no external entity has access to it.
5. Data Storage and Security
GenerateAPassword stores user-generated passwords and secure notes locally in the browser using Chrome’s built-in storage API. This data is:
- Encrypted to enhance security.
- Never transmitted to external servers or third parties.
- Accessible only on the user’s device for their exclusive use.
6. Data Retention
Since all data is stored locally on your device, it remains accessible until you manually delete it or remove the extension. Uninstalling GenerateAPassword will permanently erase all stored passwords and notes.
7. User Rights
As GenerateAPassword does not collect personal information, no additional steps are needed for data access, modification, or deletion. Users have full control over their stored data, which can be managed within the extension settings.
8. Permissions Required
GenerateAPassword requests the following permissions to provide its core functionality:
- Storage Permission: Required to securely save generated passwords and notes locally.
- ActiveTab Permission: Allows the extension to detect password fields and insert a password generation icon next to them.
- Notifications Permission: Enables non-intrusive alerts when passwords or notes are successfully saved.
- Scripting Permission: Used to inject the password generation icon and monitor password fields dynamically.
- Host Permissions for All URLs: Ensures password generation works across all websites where users need it.
These permissions are strictly used for functionality purposes and do not compromise user privacy.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page, and users are encouraged to review the policy periodically. Continued use of GenerateAPassword after any modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
