Privacy Policy for YouTube Quick Speed
Last Updated: December 21, 2025
1. Introduction YouTube Quick Speed ("we" or "the extension") is a browser extension dedicated to enhancing user productivity on YouTube. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This policy explains our practices regarding data collection and usage.
2. Data Collection We utilize a strict "Zero Data Collection" policy:
- No Personal Data: We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information.
- No Browsing History: We do not track, store, or transmit your browsing history or the videos you watch.
- No Usage Analytics: We do not use third-party analytics tools (like Google Analytics) to track how you use the extension.
3. Permissions & Data Access The extension requests specific permissions to function:
- "activeTab" & "scripting": Used solely to interact with the YouTube video player (HTML5 Video Element) on the tab you are currently viewing. This allows us to change playback speed, volume, and button states locally in your browser.
- "Host Permission (://.youtube.com/*)": Required to detect when you navigate between videos so that your speed settings can be preserved.
4. Data Storage
All preferences (such as your last used speed or loop settings) are stored locally on your device using Chrome's storage.local API. This data never leaves your browser.
5. Third-Party Sharing We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your data to outside parties. The extension operates entirely client-side.
6. Changes to this Policy We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices or service. Use of the extension after any changes indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
7. Contact If you have questions about this privacy policy, please contact us via the support section on the Chrome Web Store listing.
