3. What the extension can and cannot see
The extension runs only on this site and on the video platform. It reads the video currently open, the elapsed playback time, the interactions you perform, and your channel page. It does not read your browsing history, your passwords, your cookies for other sites, or the content of unrelated pages, and it does not transmit anything beyond what is listed in the table above.
4. Cookies
We use a single strictly necessary cookie to keep you signed in. It is set only after you sign in, is marked HttpOnly and SameSite, and is deleted when you sign out. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies and we do not run third-party analytics.
5. Sharing
We do not sell personal data and we do not share it for marketing. Data is disclosed only to our hosting provider acting as processor under a data processing agreement, and to public authorities where we are legally obliged to do so.
Some information is visible to other members by the nature of the Service: your username, your channel name and picture, the videos you add, and the interactions recorded between you and the member you exchange with. Your e-mail address, IP address and device fingerprint are never shown to other members.
If you leave the public growth list enabled in your settings, your channel name, picture and growth percentage may also appear on the public home page. You can turn this off at any time; doing so removes you from the list immediately. Your detailed growth chart is never public.
6. Retention
- Account data: for as long as your account exists.
- Security logs and login attempts: 180 days.
- Interaction and debt records: kept while relevant to other members ledgers, then anonymised.
- Messages: for as long as your account exists.
When you close your account, your identifying details are anonymised and your videos leave the market. Records that must remain for the integrity of other members ledgers are kept in a form that no longer identifies you.
7. Your rights
Subject to applicable law you have the right to access your data, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its processing, to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, and to receive your data in a portable format. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your data protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, write to us through the contact page. We respond within the period required by applicable law and at the latest within one month.
8. Security
Passwords are stored only as salted hashes and are never readable by us. Traffic is served over HTTPS. Access to the administration panel is restricted and logged. Extension requests are signed and protected against replay. Despite these measures, no system can be guaranteed completely secure.
9. International transfers
Where data is processed outside your country, we ensure an adequate level of protection through appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
10. Changes
We may update this policy. Material changes are announced on the site and take effect no earlier than 15 days after the announcement.
