Chrome Extension Privacy Practices

Single Purpose

The single purpose of this extension is to help users track space launches by displaying upcoming launch schedules and space-related information directly in their browser.

Permissions Justification

Alarms

The alarms permission is used to schedule periodic background checks for new space launch data without needing to keep a background script running constantly. This ensures the extension is resource-efficient.

Host Permission Use

Host permissions are required to fetch real-time data from our backend API and to interact with relevant space-related web pages to provide contextual information.

Notifications

The notifications permission is used to alert the user when a space launch is about to occur or when there are significant updates, ensuring they don't miss important events.

Storage

The storage permission is used to save the user's local preferences (such as display settings and notification preferences) and cache previously fetched data so the extension loads faster and minimizes API calls.

Remote Code Use

This extension does not fetch or execute remote code. All application logic and scripts are included locally within the extension package.

Data Usage Compliance

We certify that our data usage complies with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies. We do not sell user data, and all data collected is used solely to provide the core functionality of the extension.
