HOW WE USE YOUR DATA
Primary Purpose: To save and organize your links for easier access later.
Secondary Purposes: User feedback surveys to improve our product, analytics on user interaction with the extension.

DATA STORAGE
Where Your Data Is Stored:
Your data is stored in your Chrome browser's local storage using chrome.storage.sync - a secure, encrypted storage mechanism built into Chrome. This data is only accessible to you through your Chrome browser.

Security Measures: All data is stored locally on your device and uses standard Chrome security mechanisms (HTTPS for communication). Your data is not transmitted to any third party unless explicitly required by the user interface.

DATA RETENTION
We retain your data only as long as it's needed:
- URLs: Stored indefinitely until you delete them or clear your browser storage
- Link Count: Retained while you have links saved (cleared when you clear all links)
- User Preferences: Retained for the duration of your Chrome extension usage

YOUR RIGHTS AND CONTROLS
Delete Your Data: You can remove all saved links from your browser at any time by opening the Browse Later extension popup menu and selecting "Remove All" button.

Clear Browser Storage: To delete all data including URLs and preferences, go to chrome://settings/storage in Chrome and click "Clear browsing data..." Select "Local and cached images and files" and check the boxes for "All time" or your desired timeframe.

Export Your Data: You can export your saved links as a JSON file by right-clicking on any link in the extension popup menu and selecting "Copy Link".

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
Google Forms Feedback: The extension includes a feedback form that uses Google Forms for anonymous surveys. This service collects only aggregated, anonymized data and is used solely for product improvement purposes.

EXTERNAL LINKS: The extension includes links to external websites (devcj.in, Chrome Web Store). These are not collected by the extension itself but are accessed through your browser's normal navigation.

SECURITY AND PRIVACY
Encryption: All data stored in chrome.storage is encrypted using standard Chrome security protocols.
No Third-Party Tracking: The Browse Later extension does not send any data to external servers, use cookies or tracking pixels, or monitor your browsing activity beyond what's necessary for the extension's functionality.
