Developer "Zeeingsoft" has published 5 extensions on the Chrome Web Store:

This policy can also be viewed in-app, via Settings (⚙️) > Privacy and Agreements.

In short: this is an very simple app. It's frontend only, doesn't know who you are, doesn't collect any of your data, and doesn't have a server to store your data.

1. Your gmail address, password, other google account info, etc

When you click the "Sign in with Google" button, it uses the OAuth protocol to let Google identify who your are, which pops out a window where you pick a google account. Next you can grant various permissions for 3rd party to access your data. In this app, the only permission being requested is your "tasks". Since you didn't give permissions to any other things like your gmail address, name, profile picture, other data, etc, this app cannot access them.

2. Data from your tasks:

This app is front-end only, and doesn't have a server to collect or store your data. After connecting with google's Tasks API, it retrieves and displays your tasks. When you make edits, it's submitted back to the google tasks API. Data is transferred via https.

Except the google server, it doesn't send your tasks data anywhere else on the internet. All network traffic can be monitored in the Chrome DevTools (press F12 then choose the "Network" tab).

3. Source Code

Although this app doesn't use an open source license, frontend JavaScript is always open by nature. Anybody is free to inspect the source code.

1. Data from your TikTok:

This app retrieves data from tiktok.com and put them into your target folder. It does not send any of those data to anywhere over the internet. This can be audited by inspecting the network traffic with Chrome DevTools.

This app has no access to your tiktok login credentials, e.g. phone number, email, or password. If you use OAuth (login with google / apple / facebook, etc), it also has no access to those OAuth account info.

2. Chrome extension permission:

By clicking the "puzzle" button near the top right of the browser > click any extension > [⋮] > Manage extension, you can view the Permissions and Site access of any extension you installed.

Depending on their functionalities, you may see things like browsing history, geo location, all web traffic, access to all sites, etc. This extension, however, doesn't require any such permissions, and requires site access to tiktok.com only.

The Chrome Web Store review team strictly reviews and approves the initial submission and each subsequent patch of this extension.

3. Source Code

Due to the open nature of frontend JavaScript, anyone can freely inspect the code of this app.

User Agreements
