Privacy Policy

Last Updated:

Introduction

Browser Volume Booster is a lightweight Chrome extension that lets you increase or decrease the volume of any browser tab up to 600%. All audio processing happens directly inside your browser using the Web Audio API. This policy explains, in plain language, what data the extension does — and does not — handle.

The short version: Browser Volume Booster collects no data whatsoever. Everything stays on your device.

Information We Collect

Browser Volume Booster does NOT collect:

Local Storage

The extension stores only your own preferences, using Chrome's built-in chrome.storage.sync so they follow you across your signed-in Chrome browsers:

No information is ever sent to external servers.

Permissions Used

Each permission the extension requests exists for one specific, functional reason:

PermissionWhy it is required
activeTabUsed to control audio on the currently active browser tab.
tabsUsed to identify the active browser tab.
storageUsed to save user preferences.
scriptingUsed to inject the audio controller into supported pages.
host_permissionsRequired only for supported websites to adjust HTML5 media volume.

Data Sharing

We never sell your data.

We never share your data.

We never transmit your data.

Everything remains on your device.

Third-Party Services

Browser Volume Booster does not use:

The only external link in the extension is ko-fi.com/supportdipak, which is opened only when you voluntarily click the "Buy Me a Coffee" button.

Security

All audio processing happens locally within Chrome, on your device, using the browser's own Web Audio API. The extension contains no remote code, makes no network requests, and no user information ever leaves your browser.

Children's Privacy

Browser Volume Booster is safe for general audiences. Because the extension collects no data from anyone, it does not — and cannot — knowingly collect information from children.

Changes to this Policy

If this Privacy Policy ever changes, the updates will be reflected on this page and shipped with the corresponding extension version. Continued use of the extension after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
