Bottom line: We do not collect, transmit, or share any user data. All data stays on your device.
YouTube Creator Tools does not collect, store remotely, or transmit any personal user data. We do not track your browsing history, collect personal information, use cookies, or employ any form of analytics or telemetry.
The Extension uses your browser's local storage (chrome.storage.local) to save your preferences, tracked competitor data, production calendar entries, notes, and Pro license status. All of this data remains on your device and is never sent to any external server or third party.
The Extension makes a limited number of network requests to fetch publicly available data:
| Service | What's Sent | What's Returned |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube Suggest API | Search query text you enter | Autocomplete suggestions |
| Return YouTube Dislike API | Public YouTube video ID | Dislike count |
| YouTube Pages | Nothing (reads page data) | Video metadata already on the page |
No personal data is included in any of these requests.
The Extension does not integrate with, send data to, or receive data from any third-party advertising networks, analytics platforms, or data brokers.
We do not sell, share, or transfer any user data to third parties. Since no data is collected, there is no data to share.
All data stored by the Extension is protected by your browser's built-in security mechanisms. We do not have access to your locally stored data.
The Extension is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
If the Extension's data practices change in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly. Any changes that involve data collection will be clearly disclosed.
