Privacy Policy — Cookie Auto-Clear

Last updated: May 18, 2026

1. Who we are

Cookie Auto-Clear is a free Chrome browser extension that helps users automatically delete cookies from websites they no longer use, while keeping cookies on a personal whitelist.

2. What data the extension accesses

To perform its function, the extension uses the following Chrome APIs on your device:

• Cookies — to read and delete cookies stored in your browser, based on your whitelist.
• Tabs — to detect when the last tab of a website is closed.
• Storage — to store your whitelist and settings locally and to synchronize them across your devices through your Chrome profile.

The extension does not read the content of any web page. It only uses the URL of open tabs to determine the website's domain.

3. What data we collect

We collect nothing. No analytics, no telemetry, no error reporting, no usage statistics.

The extension has no backend server. It does not make any network requests to any third party.

4. Where your data is stored

Your whitelist and settings are stored in two places, both controlled entirely by Google Chrome:

• Locally on your device — in Chrome's local storage.
• Synchronized through your Chrome profile (chrome.storage.sync) — so that if you sign in to Chrome on another device, your whitelist follows you. This synchronization is operated by Google as part of Chrome Sync and is governed by Google's privacy policy.

We never see, store, or have access to any of this data.

5. Permissions explained

When you install the extension, Chrome will show a permission prompt that includes "Read and change all your data on all websites". This is the standard wording Chrome uses for the cookies and tabs permissions combined with broad host access. It does NOT mean the extension reads page content. Specifically:

• The extension only reads the URL of your open tabs (to know the domain).
• The extension reads and deletes cookies — that is its core function.
• The extension does not inject scripts into web pages and does not access page content.

6. Third-party services

The extension does not use any third-party service, library, or API at runtime. There is no advertising, no tracking, and no analytics SDK.

7. Children's privacy

The extension is not directed at children under 13. It does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children.

8. Changes to this policy

If this policy is updated, the "Last updated" date above will change. Material changes will be reflected in a new version of the extension's listing on the Chrome Web Store.
