Effective Date: May 26, 2026

This privacy policy governs your use of the Chrome browser extension "YouTube Playback Paused Bypass" (hereafter referred to as "the Extension").

1. Data Collection and Transmission

The Extension operates under a strict zero-collection framework. It does not harvest, store, track, or transmit any personally identifiable information, browsing histories, credentials, or analytical indicators. All code executes locally inside your web browser engine, and no network connections are initiated to external third-party or developer-managed servers.

2. Use of Local Browser APIs

To deliver its core single-purpose function seamlessly, the Extension interacts strictly with the following local APIs:

• Content Injection: Analyzes the localized document structure (DOM) on YouTube domains strictly to recognize active session-pause dialog overlays.
• chrome.storage.local: Temporarily registers and updates an anonymous numerical count value representing total automated recoveries. This integer stays safely inside your local profile sandbox and never leaves your machine.

3. Third-Party Disclosures

Because the Extension possesses no mechanism for compiling or tracking user metrics, no data is ever processed, packaged, shared, or commercialized with third-party networks, advertising platforms, or data brokers.

4. Policy Revisions

This policy remains consistent with the minimal permission profile required by the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies. Should core engine changes necessitate structural updates, amendments will be documented immediately on this page.
