This Privacy Policy explains how the PlacementSkipper Chrome extension ("Extension") collects, uses, and protects information when you use it.

Information We Collect

The Extension does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email, or browsing history. The only data accessed relates to YouTube videos you watch, including video IDs, timestamps, and ad segment information. This data is necessary to identify and skip product placement ads and sponsored segments in YouTube videos.

How We Use Your Data

Data collected (video IDs and ad segment details) is sent securely to our backend server solely for the purpose of analyzing and identifying advertisement segments. No personal user information is transmitted.

When you skip an advertisement segment using the Extension, anonymized data about the skip event (such as video ID, ad segment timestamps, and skip timing) is sent to our backend server. This information helps us improve the accuracy and effectiveness of ad detection and skipping features. No personal information is collected or associated with this data.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data transmitted between the Extension and our backend from unauthorized access or disclosure. Data is handled in compliance with applicable privacy laws and is never shared with third parties outside the scope of providing the service.

Your Control and Rights

By installing and using the Extension, you consent to this data processing as described. You may uninstall the Extension at any time to stop data transmission. If you have questions or requests regarding your data, please contact us at lorenz1e.contact@gmail.com.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy occasionally. Updated versions will be published here, and continued use of the Extension indicates acceptance of those changes.
