Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Crazy Cursor ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our Chrome browser extension. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about our data practices.

1. Information We Collect

Your IP address or device identifiers
Any personal data from websites you visit
Payment information (handled securely by third-party payment processors)

2. How We Use Your Information

The information stored locally on your device is used solely for the following purposes:

Extension Functionality: To remember your preferences and provide a personalized experience
Settings Persistence: To maintain your selected language, effects, and settings across browser sessions
Performance Optimization: To optimize the extension's performance based on your particle count preferences

                Important: All data is stored locally on your device. We do not have access to, nor do we transmit, any of your stored information to external servers or third parties.
            

3. Data Storage and Security

3.1 Local Storage

All data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage API (chrome.storage.sync). This data:

Remains on your device and is not transmitted to our servers
Is synchronized across your Chrome browser instances (if you are signed into Chrome)
Can be deleted at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing browser data

3.2 Data Security

We implement appropriate technical measures to protect your locally stored data:

Data is stored using Chrome's secure storage API
No data is transmitted over the network
No external servers or databases are used to store your information

4. Permissions and Access

Crazy Cursor requires the following permissions to function properly:

4.1 Storage Permission

Used to save your preferences (language, selected effects, settings) locally on your device.

4.2 ActiveTab Permission

Allows the extension to inject particle effects on the currently active browser tab. This permission is only used when you enable the extension.

4.3 Host Permissions (`<all_urls>`)

Required to inject particle effects on web pages you visit. The extension:

Only injects visual particle effects (does not access page content)
Does not read, modify, or transmit any website data
Does not track your browsing behavior
Does not collect information from websites you visit

                Note: We do not access, read, or transmit any content from the websites you visit. The extension only adds visual particle effects to your cursor movement.
            

5. Third-Party Services

5.1 Payment Processing

If you choose to upgrade to Premium, payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors. We do not store or have access to your payment information. Please refer to the payment processor's privacy policy for information about how they handle your payment data.

5.2 Chrome Web Store

When you install Crazy Cursor from the Chrome Web Store, Google's privacy policy applies to the installation process. We do not receive any personal information from Google during installation.

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not share, sell, rent, or disclose your information to third parties because:

All data is stored locally on your device
We do not operate any external servers or databases
We do not collect personal information
We do not use analytics or tracking services

The only exception would be if we are required to do so by law or in response to valid legal requests from law enforcement agencies.

10. International Users

Crazy Cursor is used by people around the world. Since all data is stored locally on your device, your data is subject to the laws of your jurisdiction. We do not transfer data across international borders as we do not operate any servers or databases.

11. California Privacy Rights
