Really appreciate this question privacy is something we take seriously, not just as a checkbox.
Here's the transparent breakdown:
No tracking of videos watched we don't know or care what you're watching
No browsing history collection your site visits are yours alone
No data sold to third parties ever
Privacy-first analytics only aggregated, anonymous usage patterns (like "how many users use speed control") to improve the product
Manifest V3 compliant built on the latest extension standard which itself has stricter privacy boundaries
Minimal permissions we only request what's needed to interact with HTML5 video elements on the page
Cloud sync is opt-in only if you choose to sign in with Google; works fully offline otherwise
The extension needs page-level access to detect <video> elements that's the permission you see. But it doesn't read page content, form data, or anything else.
