Privacy Policy

What data the extension handles, and when

The extension acts only when you tell it to — when you click the toolbar button, choose a menu item, or shorten a link you have copied.

• The URL you shorten. When you shorten a link, the extension sends that one URL to the shortening service you have selected — TinyURL.com by default, or is.gd — which returns the shortened link. Nothing is sent until you take that action.
• Your TinyURL API token (optional). If you choose to add a token, requests are sent to api.tinyurl.com and include that token so the link is created under your own TinyURL account. The token is sent only to TinyURL, and only for this purpose.
• Standard request metadata. As with any web request, the shortening service receives your IP address and normal request headers and handles them under its own privacy policy (linked below). We never receive or see this.

What we store, and where

• Your settings — your service choice, toggles, and the optional API token — are stored locally in your browser using the extension storage API. They remain on your device.
• If you have browser sync enabled (Chrome sync or Firefox Sync), your browser may sync these settings, including the API token, to your other devices. That syncing is performed by your browser vendor, not by us, and is governed by their privacy policy.
• The extension does not keep a history of the URLs you shorten or the pages you visit.

How the data is used

The URL you submit is used for a single purpose: to generate a shortened link and place it on your clipboard. Your settings are used only to remember your preferences between sessions. There is no other processing.

Who we share data with

We — the developer — receive no data and therefore share none. The only parties that receive any information are:

• The shortening service you choose (TinyURL.com or is.gd), which receives the URL you are shortening in order to create the short link.
• Your browser vendor, only if you have browser sync turned on, which may sync your settings across your devices.

We do not sell, rent, or share your data with anyone else — there is nothing for us to sell, because your data never reaches us.

What we do not do

• We do not operate any server that receives your data.
• We do not collect analytics, telemetry, or usage statistics.
• We do not track you, build advertising profiles, or serve ads.
• We do not use your data to determine creditworthiness or for lending.

Third-party services

Shortening is performed by the service you select. Their handling of the URL and request metadata is governed by their own privacy policies:

• TinyURL — tinyurl.com/app/privacy-policy
• is.gd — is.gd/privacy.php

Permissions

The extension requests only the permissions needed to read the current page's URL when you act, contact the shortening service, and copy the result to your clipboard. A plain-language explanation of every permission is on the extension pages for Chrome and Firefox.

Children

The extension is a general-purpose utility and is not directed at children, nor does it knowingly collect information from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
