Last Updated: March 6, 2025

Thank you for choosing the Unit Converter Extension. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience using our extension.

Summary: The Unit Converter Extension operates entirely within your browser. It does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data or browsing information.

1. What Information We Collect

The Unit Converter Extension does not collect any personal information. We do not:

Collect your browsing history
Store any personal identifiers
Track your online activities
Transmit data to external servers
Use cookies or similar tracking technologies

2. How The Extension Works

Our extension operates entirely locally within your browser. It:

Scans the text content of web pages you visit to identify quantity patterns (such as "2 in", "3 kg", "10 m/s²")
Highlights these quantities with a dashed underline
Displays a unit conversion overlay when you hover over highlighted quantities
Processes all conversions locally in your browser

All operations are performed in real-time and exclusively within your browser environment. No information is sent to or stored on external servers.

3. Permissions We Request

Our extension requires the following permissions to function properly:

activeTab: This permission allows our extension to analyze the content of the current webpage to identify and highlight quantity patterns. It is essential for the core functionality of identifying units that can be converted.
host permissions: This permission allows our extension to work across websites, as units of measurement can appear on any webpage.

These permissions are used solely to provide the unit conversion functionality and do not enable data collection or tracking.
