Privacy

Last updated: September 2026

LOCAL-FIRST

Auto Text Replacer is designed with a local-first approach. Your replacement rules and the text you process with the extension remain on your device.

Your replacement rules are stored locally in your browser. Page text, inputs, passwords, messages, and form contents are not sent to our servers for analytics or error monitoring.

WHAT WE COLLECT

We may collect limited, non-content data to understand how the extension is used and improve its reliability:

• Anonymous install identifier — a randomly generated UUID that is not associated with your email or account.
• Aggregate usage data — such as the number of rules, replacement counts, and feature usage.
• Technical information — extension version, operating environment, platform, and browser metadata.
• Campaign parameters — such as utm_source, utm_medium, and utm_campaign when you visit our website through a campaign link.
• Anonymized error reports — technical error information that does not include page content, typed text, or replacement contents.

WHAT WE NEVER COLLECT

Auto Text Replacer does not collect or transmit:

• Replacement text, trigger text, or snippet contents.
• Typed text, webpage text, or textarea/input values.
• Passwords or other sensitive form contents.
• Messages or clipboard contents.
• DOM/page content.
• URLs containing sensitive query parameters.
• Personal information or email addresses unless you voluntarily provide them when contacting us.
• Browser account data, including your Google, Mozilla, or Microsoft account information.

PAYMENTS

Purchases are processed by our payment providers, ExtensionPay and Stripe. We do not store your payment card numbers.

If you contact us for support, your message may include your email address or other information you choose to provide. We use this information only to respond to your request and provide support.

DATA SECURITY

We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we collect. We do not sell or rent user data to third parties.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
