Last updated: January 19, 2025

Overview

Sound Toggle is a browser extension that allows users to instantly mute or unmute all audio in their browser with a single click. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our extension.

Information We Collect

Local Storage Only

Sound Toggle stores minimal data locally on your device:

  • Sound preference setting: A single boolean value (true/false) indicating whether sound is enabled or disabled
  • This setting is stored using Chrome's sync storage to maintain your preference across browser sessions

What We DO NOT Collect

  • Personal information (name, email, phone number, etc.)
  • Browsing history or visited websites
  • Audio content or recordings
  • Cookies or tracking data
  • User behavior analytics
  • Any data that could identify you personally

How We Use Information

The only data we store (your sound preference) is used exclusively to:

  • Remember your sound setting when you restart your browser
  • Synchronize your preference across browser tabs
  • Provide consistent functionality

Data Sharing

We do not share, sell, rent, or distribute any data to third parties because:

  • We don't collect personal information
  • We don't have access to your browsing data
  • All settings are stored locally on your device

Our extension requests the following permissions for technical functionality only:

  • activeTab: Access current tab to control audio elements
  • storage: Save your sound preference locally
  • tabs: Send audio control commands to all open tabs
  • scripting: Inject audio control scripts into web pages

These permissions are used solely for audio management and never for data collection.

Data Security

  • All data (your sound preference) is stored locally on your device
  • No data is transmitted to external servers
  • No network connections are made for data collection
  • Chrome's built-in security protects your local settings

Third-Party Services

Children's Privacy
