Privacy Policy for Reddit Scraper Extension

Effective Date: October 25, 2025

Your privacy is important to us. This privacy policy explains what information is collected by the Reddit Scraper extension ("the extension") and how it is used. This extension is developed and maintained by Abdul Rashid.

Information We Collect

The extension is designed to function with minimal data collection. We only collect information that is essential for the extension's features to work.

  • Optional User Account Information: When you choose to log in using the "Login with Google" button, we receive your email address, name, and profile picture URL from Google to create and manage your account.
  • Authentication Token: After a successful login, our server generates a secure authentication token (JWT). This token is stored locally by the extension on your device to keep you logged in. We do not collect or store your Google password.
  • User-Initiated Scraped Content: When you use the extension to scrape a Reddit page and choose to send data to our backend, the content you scrape (posts, comments, URLs) is sent to and stored on our server, associated with your user ID.
  • Extension Settings: We use the browser's local storage to save your preferences, such as your "Max Scrolls" setting. This information is stored only on your local device.

How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used exclusively for the following purposes:

  • To provide the core functionality of the extension.
  • To associate the Reddit data you scrape with your user account on our backend.
  • To save your personal settings within the extension.
  • To secure your account and authenticate your actions.

Data Sharing and Storage

We take your privacy seriously. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information or your scraped data with any third parties. All data you send to our backend is stored securely and is only accessible by you when you are logged in.
