Privacy Policy for Incorrect Quote Generator

Last updated: November 23, 2024

Introduction

The Incorrect Quote Generator Chrome extension ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we handle your data when you use our extension.

Data Collection and Storage

Our extension collects and stores the following information locally in your browser:

  • Generated quotes that you choose to save
  • Your preferences for quote generation (character count, options for swears, shipping, and NSFW content)
  • Your rating of the extension (if provided)
  • Authentication token for AI quote generation (when signed in with Google)

This data is stored locally using Chrome's storage API and is not transmitted to any third parties except as described below.

Google Authentication

When you choose to use AI-powered quote generation, we require you to sign in with your Google account. During this process:

  • We use Google's OAuth service for authentication
  • We receive basic profile information (name and email) to identify your account
  • We store an authentication token to maintain your session

This information is used solely for authentication purposes and to manage your AI quote generation quota.

AI Quote Generation

When using AI-powered quote generation:

  • Character names and descriptions you enter are sent to our API server
  • Your generation preferences (swears, shipping, NSFW options) are transmitted
  • Generated quotes are sent back to your browser
  • We maintain a count of your AI quote generations for quota management

No permanent record of generated quotes is kept on our servers unless you explicitly choose to report issues.

Permissions

Our extension requires the following permissions:

  • storage: To save your quotes, preferences, and extension rating locally
  • clipboardWrite: To copy generated quotes to your clipboard
  • identity: For Google Sign-In functionality
  • tabs: To handle authentication redirects and open external links

Analytics and Error Reporting

We collect anonymous usage data to improve our service, including:

  • Extension installation and uninstallation events
  • Feature usage statistics (template vs. AI generation)
  • Error reports for debugging purposes

This data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify individual users.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

  • Google Authentication for user sign-in
  • Chrome Web Store for extension distribution and updates

Each service has its own privacy policy and data handling practices.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new privacy policy in this document and updating the "Last updated" date.
