MINTRA ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome Extension "MINTRA - Focus Timer" (the "Extension") handles your information.
In short: MINTRA does not collect, store, or transmit any of your personal data to external servers. All data remains locally on your device.
We prioritize your privacy by design.
- No Personal Data Collection: We do not collect names, email addresses, or any other personally identifiable information.
- No Analytics or Tracking: We do not use Google Analytics, Mixpanel, or any other third-party tracking services. We do not track your browsing history or usage patterns.
- Local Storage Only: All data generated by the Extension (such as your timer settings, task history, custom templates, and themes) is stored securely within your browser's local storage (
chrome.storage.local) on your own device. This data never leaves your computer.
The Extension requires specific permissions to function correctly. Here is why we need them:
- Storage: To save your preferences, session history, and timer state locally so they persist when you restart your browser.
- Alarms: To run the timer accurately in the background and ensure notifications fire at the correct time.
- Notifications: To send you a desktop notification when a focus session or break ends.
- Host Permissions (<all_urls>): This is required solely to display the floating timer overlay on top of the web pages you visit. We do not read, modify, or collect the content of any websites you visit. The permission is strictly used to inject the visual timer interface.
MINTRA creates all functionalities without relying on external services.
- We do not use third-party APIs.
- We do not display ads.
- We do not sell data to third parties.
Since all data is stored locally on your device, you have full control over it.
- You can clear your data at any time by uninstalling the extension or using the "Reset" features within the extension's settings.
- If you choose to use the "Export" feature, a JSON file is generated locally for you to download. We do not have access to this file.
Because MINTRA does not collect any personal information, it is safe for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect data from children under the age of 13.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact us via the Chrome Web Store support tab.
