Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how the Phone to WhatsApp Chrome Extension ("we", "our", or "the Extension") handles information when you use our extension. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about our data practices.

Data Collection and Storage

What We Store

The Extension stores the following data locally on your device using Chrome's local storage:

• Message Templates: Any message templates you create, including template names and message content, are stored locally in your browser's storage.

What We Don't Collect

• We do not collect phone numbers you enter
• We do not collect messages you type
• We do not track your usage or browsing activity
• We do not collect any personal information
• We do not use analytics or tracking services
• We do not share data with third parties

How We Use Your Data

The Extension uses locally stored templates solely to provide you with the ability to:

• Save and reuse message templates
• Quickly select templates when sending WhatsApp messages
• Export and import your templates for backup purposes

All processing happens locally on your device. No data is sent to external servers.

Data Security

Your data is stored using Chrome's built-in local storage API, which provides secure storage within your browser. The data is:

• Stored only on your local device
• Accessible only by the Extension
• Not accessible by websites or other extensions
• Deleted if you uninstall the Extension

Third-Party Services

The Extension redirects you to WhatsApp Web (wa.me) when you click "Open WhatsApp". We are not affiliated with WhatsApp, and your interaction with WhatsApp is subject to WhatsApp's own privacy policy and terms of service.

We do not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

Permissions

The Extension requires the following permissions:

• Tabs Permission: Used to open WhatsApp Web in a new tab when you click "Open WhatsApp".
• Storage Permission: Used to save and retrieve your message templates locally on your device.

These permissions are minimal and necessary for the Extension to function. We do not use these permissions to collect or transmit any data.

Data Deletion

You can delete your templates at any time through the Extension's template management interface. When you uninstall the Extension, all locally stored data is automatically deleted by Chrome.

Children's Privacy

The Extension is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.

Your Rights

You have full control over your data:

• You can view all stored templates through the Extension interface
• You can delete individual templates or all templates at any time
• You can export your templates for backup purposes
• You can uninstall the Extension at any time, which will delete all stored data
