Last updated: 2026-06-08

Summary
This extension does not collect, process, or transmit any personal data. It includes no analytics, telemetry, or user tracking mechanisms. All settings are stored exclusively on the user's own device in browser local storage.

Data not collected
The extension does not collect, store, or transmit any of the following data types:
- Personally identifiable information (name, email, phone, address)
- Authentication information (passwords, session tokens, cookies)
- Location data
- Web browsing history
- User activity (clicks, scrolls, views)
- Device or browser identification
- Instagram account content (posts, messages, follower lists)

Local storage
The only information the extension stores is the user's preferences for blocking features (boolean values). This data:
- Is stored exclusively on the user's device via the chrome.storage.local API
- Is never sent to any server
- Is never shared with any third party
- Is fully deleted when the extension is uninstalled

Permissions
The extension uses only the following permission:
- https://www.instagram.com/* (host permission): Required for the extension to operate on Instagram web pages and hide Reels and recommended content. The extension accesses only this site, no other.

Third parties
The extension is not integrated with any third-party services. No CDN, no external scripts, no analytics services are used.

Data retention and deletion
Since no data is collected, no retention or deletion procedure applies. When the extension is uninstalled, all local settings are automatically deleted by the browser.

Children's privacy
The extension can be used without age restrictions, though Instagram's own age rules apply. The extension knowingly collects no data from children or adults.

Changes
This privacy policy may be updated alongside the extension's development. Important changes will be announced on this page and in the extension's GitHub repository.
