Privacy Policy — Youtube Ad Blocker
This Privacy Policy describes how
Youtube Ad Blocker
(the “Extension”, “we”, “us”, “our”) processes information in connection with the use and operation of the Extension. By installing or using the Extension, you acknowledge that you have read and accepted the practices described in this Policy.
1. Applicability and Scope
This Privacy Policy applies only to the Extension and its core functionality. It explains data practices associated with operating, supporting, maintaining, and improving the Extension.
This Policy does not apply to third-party websites, services, or platforms you may access while browsing. Third parties operate under their own privacy policies.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
The Extension is designed to operate without requiring account creation or registration.
We do not request or intentionally collect personally identifiable information (“PII”), such as:
names;
email addresses;
telephone numbers;
payment details;
physical addresses;
login credentials; or
account-specific identifiers.
3. Information That May Be Processed
To ensure proper operation, reliability, and protection against misuse, the Extension may process limited non-personal information. This may include:
3.1 Technical and Environmental Information
browser type and version;
operating system details;
locale/language and time-related settings;
general diagnostic and compatibility information;
basic error records and performance/stability data related to Extension operation.
3.2 Random Internal Identifier (UID)
The Extension may generate a randomly created internal identifier (“UID”) upon installation or first use. The UID is not derived from personal information and is not intended to identify you.
The UID may be used for limited operational purposes, such as maintaining anonymized session continuity, supporting integrity checks, and helping prevent misuse. The UID may also include (or be associated with) the Extension installation timestamp.
3.3 Behavioral Assessment (Score)
As part of operational safeguards, the Extension may compute a technical score based on non-personal interaction patterns. This score is used to support the Extension’s reliable operation and to reduce automated misuse or interference with Extension functionality.
The score is not intended to determine a user’s real-world identity.
4. How and When Processing Occurs
Processing described in this Policy may occur automatically:
when the Extension is installed or first launched;
when Extension features are used; and
during routine operational activity (for example, applying protection mechanisms or maintaining reliability).
5. Purposes of Processing
Information processed by the Extension is used strictly for legitimate operational purposes, which may include:
providing and maintaining Extension functionality across websites (including YouTube);
supporting compatibility, stability, and performance;
detecting, preventing, and reducing misuse or automated interference;
identifying and resolving technical issues; and
improving the Extension over time.
6. Server Communication
In certain cases, the Extension may communicate with remote servers to support operation and integrity. Such communication may include transmitting limited non-personal information (for example, the UID and operational signals such as the score) necessary to apply safeguards, maintain functionality, and reduce misuse.
7. Cookies and Local Storage
The Extension may use browser storage mechanisms (such as extension storage) to save limited operational data (for example, settings and configuration) required for functionality.
You can remove locally stored Extension data by uninstalling the Extension or clearing Extension storage via your browser settings.
8. Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell personal information.
Limited non-personal information may be processed by service providers assisting with infrastructure or operational support. Such providers are expected to apply appropriate confidentiality and security safeguards.
Information may be disclosed where required by applicable law or when necessary to protect rights, safety, and security, including to address misuse.
9. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect information processed in connection with the Extension. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Extension is not intended for children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the Extension after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
