TypeOnce - Privacy Policy

TypeOnce is a browser extension by A2Z.Tools (a product of Reliable Software Technology). Version 1.0.0.

Summary

Your snippets and details stay in this browser. TypeOnce only looks at the few characters before your cursor to spot a trigger; it never records what you type and never runs in password or payment fields. No account, no analytics, no network requests.

• No account, no sign-in.
• No analytics, no advertising, no tracking pixels, no selling or sharing of data.
• No remote code. Everything the extension runs is inside the package you install.

What the extension can access

The last few characters before the cursor in the text box you are typing in (to detect a trigger), and the clipboard only when a snippet containing {clipboard} expands and you have allowed clipboard access.

Where your data is stored

storage.local in this browser profile: your snippets, folders, profiles, the name/email/company/phone you enter for variables, and settings.

Uninstalling the extension deletes this data. It is never sent to A2Z.Tools.

Network requests

None. TypeOnce never makes a network request.

Retention

Until you delete a snippet, import a replacement backup or remove the extension.

Permissions and why they are needed

• storage (Required): Keeps your snippets, profiles and your own name/email/company details (for {name} etc.) in this browser's local extension storage.
• contextMenus (Required): Adds 'TypeOnce: insert snippet' to the right-click menu of text boxes.
• activeTab (Required): Lets the toolbar popup insert a snippet into the page you are on when you click Insert.
• offscreen (Required): Chrome and Edge only: opens a hidden helper page to read the clipboard for the {clipboard} variable, and only if you allowed clipboard access.
• clipboardRead (Optional (asked only when you use the feature)): Optional, asked only when you choose to use the {clipboard} variable. The clipboard is read at the moment such a snippet expands and is never stored.
  Content scripts run on: http:///, https:///. TypeOnce watches what you type for your own triggers (like /addr) so it can expand them on any website. It skips password and payment fields, stores nothing you type, and sends nothing anywhere.

Sensitive data

Expansion never runs in password fields (including 'show password' boxes), one-time-code, card, CVV/CVC, expiry, bank or ID fields, or anywhere inside a payment form.
