1. Introduction

Welcome to Snippetly. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Chrome extension. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices.

2. What is Snippetly?

Snippetly is a text expansion extension for Chrome that enhances your productivity by allowing you to create shortcuts that expand into longer text. Type shortcuts (like /do1) anywhere on any website, and they automatically expand into your saved text—signatures, templates, responses, and more.

Key features include:

• Create and manage text snippets with a rich text editor
• Organize snippets in folders
• Insert dynamic content like dates, times, and clipboard text
• Works seamlessly in Gmail, Google Docs, Slack, Notion, and other websites

3. Information Collection

The only data associated with Snippetly is the content you explicitly create and save within the extension:

• Text snippets you create and save
• Shortcuts you assign to snippets
• Folder structure and organization
• Formatting and content added through the rich text editor

We do not collect:

• Personal identification information
• Browsing history or website visits
• Usage analytics or statistics
• Location data
• Device information
• Any other personal or behavioral data

4. Data Storage

Your snippets are stored using Chrome's local storage API (chrome.storage.local), which means:

• All data remains on your device
• Data is accessible only to the Snippetly extension
• No data is transmitted to external servers
• No data is shared with third parties
• You have complete control over your data

5. Data Transmission

Snippetly does not transmit any data to external servers. The extension operates entirely within your browser and does not communicate with any external services or APIs. There is no network communication related to your snippet data.

6. Third-Party Services

Snippetly does not integrate with any third-party services, analytics platforms, advertising networks, or data processors. The extension is self-contained and operates independently without external dependencies that would access your data.

7. Cookies and Tracking

Snippetly does not use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, or any other tracking technologies. We do not track your activity, monitor your browsing, or collect any analytics data.

8. Your Rights and Control

Since all your data is stored locally in your browser, you have complete control:

• Access: View all your snippets at any time through the extension interface
• Modify: Edit, update, or reorganize your snippets whenever you want
• Delete: Remove individual snippets or folders at any time
• Export: Your data is stored in a format you can access through browser developer tools if needed
• Uninstall: Removing the extension will delete all stored snippet data

9. Data Security

Your snippet data is protected by Chrome's built-in security mechanisms. Since the data never leaves your device, it is not vulnerable to:

• Server breaches or hacks
• Data interception during transmission
• Third-party data access
• Cloud storage vulnerabilities

However, you should be aware that anyone with access to your browser and device could potentially access your snippets if they have access to your Chrome profile.

10. Children's Privacy

Snippetly does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children. Since we do not collect any information, our extension is safe for users of all ages. We encourage parents and guardians to supervise their children's use of browser extensions.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy.

Your continued use of Snippetly after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes acceptance of those changes.
