Privacy Policy for Simple Volume Booster
Introduction
Simple Volume Booster is a Chrome extension designed to boost audio volume on websites up to 500%. This privacy policy explains how we handle user data.
Data Collection and Usage
Simple Volume Booster operates entirely within your browser and values your privacy:
- No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information.
- Local Storage Only: Your settings (volume level, extreme boost toggle, enabled/disabled state) are stored locally in Chrome's storage API and never leave your browser.
- No Analytics: We do not include any analytics or tracking code.
- No Server Communication: The extension does not communicate with any external servers.
Permissions
Simple Volume Booster requires several permissions to function properly:
- activeTab: Necessary to access and modify audio elements on the current webpage.
- storage: Required to save your volume preferences locally between browser sessions.
- Host Permission (\<all_urls\>): Needed to modify audio on any website you visit when the extension is enabled.
How We Modify Websites
When enabled, Simple Volume Booster:
- Injects code to intercept audio playback
- Uses Web Audio API to boost volume levels
- Applies compression to reduce distortion at high volumes
