Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 3, 2025

1. Introduction

We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how X Content Backup Tool ("Extension", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our browser extension for personal content backup purposes.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

X Content Backup Tool is designed with privacy in mind. We do not:

  • Collect personal information such as names, email addresses, or phone numbers
  • Track your browsing history
  • Store your X (Twitter) login credentials
  • Access your X direct messages
  • Share any data with third parties
  • Use cookies or similar tracking technologies
  • Collect information about the content you backup
  • Monitor your backup activities

3. Google OAuth Authentication

Our website offers Google OAuth authentication for user convenience. When you choose to sign in with Google:

  • Data Collected: We may receive your Google account email address and basic profile information (name, profile picture) that you have made publicly available through your Google account settings.
  • Purpose: This information is used solely for authentication purposes and to provide you with a personalized experience on our website.
  • Storage: Your Google authentication data is stored securely through Supabase, our authentication service provider, and is not shared with third parties.
  • Control: You can revoke our access to your Google account at any time through your Google account settings.
  • No Additional Data: We do not request or collect any additional personal information beyond what Google provides during the authentication process.

4. Limited Data Processing

The Extension operates entirely within your browser and only processes data necessary for its core functionality - creating personal backups of X content that you already have access to view. This processing occurs locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

5. Browser Permissions

To function properly, our Extension requires specific browser permissions:

  • Access to X (Twitter) websites: Required to identify and backup content
  • Download permission: Required to save backup files to your device
  • Storage permission: Required to store your preferences within the Extension

These permissions are used solely for providing the Extension's backup functionality and not for collecting or transmitting your data.

6. Purpose and Scope

This Extension is designed exclusively for personal backup and archival purposes. All backup operations are performed locally within your browser environment, ensuring your privacy and data security.

7. Extension Updates

When the Extension is updated through the Chrome Web Store or Microsoft Edge Add-ons, your browser may share standard update-related information with these platforms according to their respective privacy policies.

8. Third-Party Services

The Extension interacts with X (formerly Twitter) to provide its backup functionality, but does not share any user data with X beyond what is already shared during normal browsing. We have no control over how X collects or processes your data when you use their services.

9. Data Security

Since we do not collect user data, there is no risk of data breaches on our end. The Extension operates locally within your browser environment, and all backup operations are performed on your device.

10. Children's Privacy

The Extension is not directed to children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

11. Changes to Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on our website and updating the Extension description in the browser stores. Your continued use of the Extension after such modifications will constitute your acknowledgment of the modified Privacy Policy.

12. Your Rights

Since we do not collect personal data, many data protection rights (such as access, rectification, deletion, etc.) are not applicable. However, you can always control the Extension's access to your browser by disabling or removing it through your browser's extension settings.

13. Compliance Statement

This Extension is designed to operate in compliance with applicable privacy laws and platform terms of service. All backup operations are intended for personal use only and should comply with relevant legal requirements.
