2. Information We Collect

We do not collect, store, or sell personal data. However, the Extension may access certain information necessary for its core functionality:

  • Authentication Data: The Extension verifies your subscription status via Stripe (stripe.gmapleads.com). This involves checking authentication tokens stored locally in Chrome’s storage.local.
  • Google Maps Data: The Extension extracts publicly available business information from Google Maps when initiated by the user.
  • User Activity: The Extension tracks interactions with its own UI (e.g., button clicks) to improve functionality but does not track your browsing activity or web history.

🚫 What We Do NOT Collect:
✔ No personally identifiable information (e.g., name, email, phone number).
✔ No financial or payment data.
✔ No tracking of visited websites or browsing behavior.

3. How We Use Information

The collected data is used only for the following purposes:

  • Subscription Verification: To check whether a user has an active subscription via Stripe.
  • Google Maps Business Data Extraction: To allow users to extract publicly available data for lead generation.

🚫 We do NOT use collected data for advertising, analytics, or resale.

4. Data Storage and Security

  • Local Storage: Authentication tokens are stored locally in Chrome using storage.local.
  • No Remote Storage: We do not send or store user data on external servers.
  • Secure Authentication: Stripe authentication is handled via secure HTTPS encryption.

5. Third-Party Services

The Extension interacts with the following third-party service providers:

  • Stripe (stripe.gmapleads.com) – Used for subscription authentication.
  • Google Maps (google.com/maps) – Used for extracting business data.

🚫 We do NOT share user data with any other third parties.

6. Cookies and Tracking

The Extension does not track user behavior or use third-party cookies. It only accesses first-party authentication cookies from Stripe to verify subscriptions.

✔ Access & Deletion: Since the Extension does not store personal data, you do not need to request deletion. You can remove all stored data by uninstalling the Extension.
