Privacy Policy

This privacy policy applies to the Background Chrome extension. Related websites/extensions of StayTech may have their own privacy policies.

We respect the privacy of our visitors. We collect only such personal information as is needed to provide the information, service, or assistance that you request.

Information Collected

We currently do not collect any additional information other than what the Google Web Store collects. The Google Web Store collects standard usage metrics, including installation statistics, basic device information, and crash reports. For more details on Google's data collection practices, please refer to the Google Privacy Policy.

Data Retention

We may retain information that we collect for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law or for legitimate business purposes. We periodically review our data retention practices to minimize the storage of personal information.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information.

Security

Please note that electronic communication, particularly email, is not necessarily secure against interception. Please do not send sensitive data (e.g., Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers) by email or web form.

The Background Chrome extension employs industry-standard security measures to protect any information processed through our service. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Extension Monitoring

Unauthorized use, tampering with or modification of this extension—or its supporting hardware or software—may violate federal or other statutes and may subject the violator to criminal and civil penalties. In the event of unauthorized intrusion, all relevant information regarding possible violation of law may be provided to law enforcement officials.

Third-Party Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share limited information with service providers who assist us in operating the extension, conducting our business, or serving users, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

Regulatory Compliance

This privacy policy is designed to comply with relevant privacy regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), where applicable. Our approach to privacy considers the varying requirements of these regulations based on user location.

Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to make changes to this policy. If we make material changes, we will provide notice through the extension, by email, or by other means to give you a reasonable opportunity to review the changes before they become effective.
