Vocabo Extension

Effective Date: June 3, 2024

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how the Vocabo extension ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our browser extension.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

  • Website Content: Text from the web pages you visit to provide translation and vocabulary functionalities.
  • Usage Data: Anonymous usage statistics including the number of word pairs saved, source and target languages, and a randomly generated user identifier to help us improve our service. We collect limited technical data such as browser type and country-level location only.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used for the following purposes:

  • To provide translation and vocabulary functionalities.
  • To enhance your user experience with our extension.
  • To analyze usage patterns and improve our service.
  • To monitor the performance and effectiveness of our features.
  • To troubleshoot errors and technical issues that may arise during use.

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to outside parties. We may share information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating our extension, conducting our business, or providing services to you, as long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We use PostHog, an open-source analytics platform, to collect anonymous usage data. We have configured our analytics to only collect country-level location data and have disabled collection of precise location information such as city, coordinates, or postal code. This helps us understand how our extension is being used globally while respecting your privacy.

4. Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you enter, submit, or access your information. We use secure hashing for any identifiers and do not store IP addresses.

5. Your Consent

By using our extension, you consent to our Privacy Policy.

6. Changes to Our 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 this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
