Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy informs you about the type, scope, and purpose of the collection and use of data by the Chrome extension Instant Word Translator.

1. Data Collection and Processing

This extension is designed with privacy in mind. No personal data is transmitted to or stored on any infrastructure owned or managed by the developer.

• Translation Requests: When you use the translation feature, the text you have selected is sent directly to the Google Translation API (translate.googleapis.com). This is technically necessary to generate the translation.
• Local Storage: Your settings (e.g., source and target languages, activation status) are stored exclusively locally within your browser using chrome.storage.local.

2. Third-Party Data Transfer

To provide the translation service, the extension communicates directly with Google's servers. During this process, your IP address and the text to be translated are transmitted to Google. This usage is subject to Google's privacy policy.

We do not sell any data to advertising networks or other third parties, and we do not use any tracking or analytics tools.

3. Limited Use Policy

The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

4. Your Rights

Since no data is stored on our servers, there is no data for us to delete or export. Regarding local storage, you can delete all data at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing your browser's cache.
