Privacy Policy for Cflow

Last Updated: July 3, 2025

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices for the Cflow Chrome Extension ("the Extension"). This policy explains that we do not collect personal data and clarifies how the Extension interacts with your browser and the websites you visit to perform its intended function. Your privacy and data security are of paramount importance to us.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

The Extension is designed with a "privacy-first" approach. We want to be explicitly clear about the data we DO NOT collect, store, or transmit:

2. Data That is Stored Locally

The sole function of the Extension is to store and manage text-expansion shortcuts that you, the user, create. This data ("User Rules") is stored locally on your computer using the standard chrome.storage.local API provided by the browser. This data is under your control, on your device, and is never transmitted to our servers or any third party.

3. Chrome Extension Permissions Justification

The Extension requests the minimum permissions required for it to function:

4. Security and No Remote Code

The Extension is built for security. It contains no remote code, analytics trackers, or external scripts. The entire codebase is self-contained within the package reviewed and distributed by the Chrome Web Store. This is enforced by a strict Content Security Policy (CSP) that prevents the loading of any external resources.

5. Children's Privacy

The Extension is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you become aware that a child has provided us with information, please contact us, although as stated, the Extension does not collect or transmit any data.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in a new version of the Extension and an updated policy available at this URL. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

7. Disclaimer

The Extension is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind, express or implied. In no event shall the authors or copyright holders be liable for any claim, damages, or other liability, whether in an action of contract, tort, or otherwise, arising from, out of, or in connection with the software or the use or other dealings in the software.
