1. Data Collected
The extension functions locally within your browser. To provide our core ad-blocking functionality, we process the following categories of user data:
- Web history: We process the URLs of the web pages you visit locally to apply the appropriate ad-blocking rules.
- Website content: We access the text, images, and HTML structure of the active websites you visit to identify and remove visual ads and banners.
- User activity: We may monitor local page interactions (such as scrolling or element loading) strictly to ensure dynamic ads are blocked as they appear.
2. Limited Use Disclosure & Data Sharing
ElementBlocker complies fully with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy. We explicitly certify the following regarding your data:
- Affirmative Statement of Compliance: The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
- Third-Party Sharing: Your data is processed entirely locally on your device. We do not share, sell, or transfer your user data to any third parties whatsoever.
- Single Purpose Use: We do not use or transfer user data for purposes that are unrelated to our item's single purpose of blocking ads and banners.
- Financial Protections: We do not use or transfer user data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.
3. Data Storage
We use your browser's local storage to save your settings and preferences. This data resides solely on your device and is never transmitted to our servers or any external databases.
4. Security
We collect the absolute minimum data required to operate. Because all data processing happens locally on your machine and is not transmitted over the internet by our extension, your data remains secure within your own local environment.
