- Service Improvement: Anonymous usage data, if you opt in, helps us understand how the extension is used and identify areas for improvement.
- Compatibility: Browser information helps us ensure the extension works correctly across different browsers and versions.

Our extension integrates with the following third-party services:
- Yahoo Search: Non-track searches are processed through Yahoo Search. Please review Yahoo's Privacy Policy for information on how they handle your data.
