Introduction

Welcome to Pomodoro Tab ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in our Chrome extension. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting it.

Information We Collect

Pomodoro Tab is designed to work without collecting any of your personal information. The extension stores the following data to function correctly:

• Timer Settings: Your preferences for the duration of pomodoro sessions, short breaks, and long breaks.
• Current Timer State: The current state of the timer (e.g., running, paused, current session).

This data is stored locally on your computer using the chrome.storage.sync API. This allows your settings to be synchronized across different Chrome browsers where you are logged into the same Google account. We do not have access to this data.

How We Use Your Information

The data stored by the extension is used solely for the following purposes:

• To provide the core functionality of the Pomodoro timer.
• To save your settings so you don't have to reconfigure the timer every time you open it.
• To send you notifications when a timer cycle is complete.

Permissions Required

The extension requires the following permissions:

• storage: This permission is necessary to save your timer settings and preferences using the chrome.storage.sync API.
• notifications: This permission allows the extension to display alerts when your pomodoro, short break, or long break timers are complete.

Data Security

All data is stored on your local machine and managed by your Chrome browser. We do not transmit any data to our servers. The security of your data is handled by the standard security measures of your Google account and Chrome browser.

Third-Party Disclosure

We do not collect, sell, trade, or otherwise transfer any of your information to outside parties.
