Pronoun Tags for Twitch shows people's pronouns next to their names in Twitch chat. It has no servers of its own, no accounts, no analytics, no tracking and no ads. This page explains what it reads, what it sends, and what it keeps.


It only runs on www.twitch.tv and dashboard.twitch.tv.

• Usernames in chat, and the name of the channel you're viewing, to know whose pronouns to show.
• Your own Twitch login, from Twitch's login cookie (or the login inside Twitch's twilight-user cookie), only so it can leave your own messages untagged if you turn that on. Nothing else in your cookies is used, and your login isn't saved or sent anywhere.

To show pronouns, it sends usernames to the pronouns API at api.pronouns.alejo.io: the usernames of people whose messages appear in chat, and the name of the channel you're viewing (for the tag on its About panel). The API answers with the pronouns each person has chosen at pr.alejo.io.

• The requests don't include cookies or anything about you, but like any web request they reveal your IP address to that service.
• Each person is looked up at most about once an hour; answers are kept in memory, not saved.
• That service is run independently of Pronoun Tags; see pr.alejo.io for how it handles requests.
• Turning off Show pronouns stops all lookups.

Pronoun Tags sends nothing else, to anyone. It never sells or shares data, and never uses it for anything but showing pronouns.


Your settings (how tags look and where they show) are kept in your browser's extension storage on your computer. Nothing about other people is saved.


Uninstalling Pronoun Tags removes its settings. Reset to defaults in its settings puts them back to how they started.
