Privacy Policy for Quick Reminder

Last updated: April 26, 2025

Introduction

The Quick Reminder Chrome extension ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we handle your data when you use our reminder service.

Data Collection and Storage

Our extension collects and stores:

  • Reminder text (stored locally on your device)
  • Reminder date and time (stored locally on your device)
  • Extension preferences and settings
  • Your extension rating (if provided)

All data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's secure storage APIs (chrome.storage.local) and is not transmitted to our servers.

Local Storage

  • All reminder data is stored exclusively in your browser's local storage
  • No reminder content is ever transmitted to external servers
  • Your reminders remain private and under your control at all times
  • Reminders are automatically removed after they trigger or when you clear them
  • Only one active reminder can be set at any time

Permissions

Our extension requires:

  • storage: For saving your reminder data and preferences locally
  • alarms: To trigger your reminder at the exact time you set
  • notifications: To display reminder alerts on your device

We request minimal permissions to ensure your privacy and security while providing reliable reminder functionality.

Analytics

We collect limited anonymous usage data including:

  • Installation/uninstallation events
  • Error reports
  • Feature usage statistics

This data is aggregated and non-identifiable. No actual reminder content or timestamps are included in analytics.

Third-Party Services

We use:

  • Chrome Web Store for distribution
  • Google Analytics for anonymous usage tracking
  • Google Forms for feedback collection (optional)

We do not use any third-party services that would have access to your reminder content or timestamps.

Your Control Over Your Data

You maintain complete control over your data:

  • Active reminders can be cleared by you at any time
  • Reminders are automatically cleared after they trigger
  • Uninstalling the extension will remove all stored data
  • Clearing browser data for the extension will remove all stored data
  • No backups of your reminder data exist on any external servers

Chrome Notifications

When a reminder triggers:

  • We use Chrome's native notification system to display your reminder
  • Notifications include only the text you provided when setting the reminder
  • After displaying a notification, all reminder data is automatically cleared
  • Notification display depends on your system's notification settings

Updates to Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted here with an updated date.
