Privacy Policy for SnapSearch

Last Updated: October 2, 2025

SnapSearch is a Chrome extension developed by iNomanWaleed that allows users to perform custom searches by selecting text on webpages. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data—or rather, how we don't. SnapSearch is designed to be privacy-focused, with no data collection, tracking, or external sharing.

By using SnapSearch, you agree to the practices described below. If you have questions, contact us at inomanwaleed@163.com.

1. No Data Collection

SnapSearch does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data from users. We do not track your browsing activity, search queries, or selected text.

• No analytics tools or third-party services are integrated.
• No IP addresses, device info, or usage data is gathered.
• The extension operates entirely locally in your browser.

2. Local Storage Only

All configuration data (e.g., custom search platforms and URLs) is stored locally on your device using Chrome's storage API.

• Data is encrypted by the browser and inaccessible to us.
• No cloud syncing or remote access.
• You can clear data via Chrome's extension settings without affecting the developer.

3. No Tracking or Sharing

Your data is not sold, shared, or used for any purpose unrelated to the extension's core functionality.

• Not transferred to third parties.
• Not used for advertising, profiling, or credit/lending decisions.
• Open source code is available for audit (link to GitHub if applicable).

4. Permissions and Security

SnapSearch requests minimal permissions: contextMenus (for right-click), storage (local configs), and activeTab (to read selected text).

• Built with Manifest V3 for enhanced security.
• Regular updates to address vulnerabilities.
• Works offline after installation—no internet required for core features.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices. Significant changes will be announced via the Chrome Web Store or extension updates. Continued use after changes implies acceptance.

For the latest version, check this page or contact the developer.
