Privacy Policy for Mobile View Switcher

Last Updated: April 2, 2025

This privacy policy describes how the "Mobile View Switcher" Chrome extension ("the Extension") handles your data.

1. Information We Collect

The Extension collects and stores the following information solely within your local browser storage using the chrome.storage.local API:

• Global User-Agent Setting: The User-Agent string you select or enter as the global default (e.g., "Android", "iOS", "Browser Default", or a custom string).
• Domain-Specific Overrides: The list of domain names (e.g., "example.com") and the corresponding User-Agent strings you configure for specific website overrides.

2. How We Use Information

The collected information is used exclusively to provide the core functionality of the Extension:

• The stored settings are read by the extension's background service worker to configure rules.
• These rules use the declarativeNetRequest API to modify the User-Agent header of your outgoing web requests according to your saved global or domain-specific settings. This allows websites to potentially serve you content intended for the specified mobile device or browser profile.

3. Data Storage and Security

All configuration data (your chosen User-Agent strings and associated domain names) is stored locally on your computer using the browser's standard storage mechanisms (chrome.storage.local). This data is not transmitted, shared, sold, or disclosed to any external servers, services, or third parties by the Extension.

4. Permissions

The Extension requires certain permissions to function, as detailed in the Permissions Justification section provided during store submission. These permissions are used solely to enable the User-Agent switching functionality.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy within the extension or its description on the Chrome Web Store.
