Privacy Policy

Introduction

PlanYT is a Chrome Extension built to help you finish YouTube playlists with a structured learning plan. Our product is developed with a privacy-first philosophy and is designed to function without collecting personal information.

Information We Do NOT Collect

• No personal information (name, email, phone number, address)
• No account credentials or profile data
• No analytics or telemetry events
• No behavioral tracking across websites
• No advertising identifiers or ad-related profiling
• No third-party cookies

Local Storage Usage

PlanYT stores planning data locally on your device using the Chrome Storage API. This data is processed only for extension functionality, is not transmitted to our servers by default, is never sold, and is removed when the extension is uninstalled or browser storage is cleared.

Permissions Explanation

PlanYT requests only the permissions required to operate:

• Access to YouTube playlist pages to inject planner UI elements
• Chrome storage permission to save your plans locally

PlanYT does not request access to your full browsing history, identity/account permissions, or third-party tracking infrastructure.

External API Disclosure

If a backend API proxy is used in future versions, it will only fetch public playlist metadata required for functionality. No personal user data will be transmitted, and no authentication tokens will be collected or stored by PlanYT.

Open Source Transparency

PlanYT is open source. Anyone can inspect, audit, and contribute to the codebase to verify how data is handled.

Data Deletion

You can delete all PlanYT data at any time by:

• Clearing browser extension storage data
• Uninstalling the extension from Chrome
