Privacy Policy for Amazon Price Finder

Last Updated: November 16, 2025

Your Privacy Matters

Amazon Price Finder respects your privacy. This policy explains how our extension operates when you compare prices across shopping websites.

What We Don’t Collect

Amazon Price Finder collects absolutely no personal information or browsing data. We do not gather, store, transmit, or share any of the following:

  • Personal details like names, emails, or phone numbers
  • Browsing history or web activity
  • Login credentials or passwords
  • Payment or financial information
  • Location data or IP addresses
  • Any personally identifiable information

How It Works

When you activate the extension on a product page, here’s what happens:

Local Processing: The extension extracts product details (title, price, image) from the page you’re viewing. All processing occurs entirely within your browser—nothing leaves your device.

Temporary Caching: To enhance performance, search results may be stored locally on your computer using browser’s storage API. This cached data stays on your device and is never sent anywhere else.

Amazon Search: The extension sends search queries directly from your browser to Amazon’s public website, just like typing into Amazon’s search bar yourself. You can select your preferred Amazon region.

Zero Tracking: We don’t monitor which sites you visit, what products you browse, or how you use the extension.

Why We Need Permissions

The extension requests specific permissions solely for its core features:

  • activeTab: Reads product information only when you click the extension icon
  • storage: Saves search results locally for faster performance
  • tabs: Opens Amazon product pages in new tabs when requested
  • Host permissions: Enables functionality across all shopping websites

These permissions serve the extension’s basic operation and enable no data collection whatsoever.

Third-Party Interaction

The extension connects to Amazon.com to search for products. When you click Amazon product links, Amazon’s privacy policy and terms of service apply.

Your Data Security

Since we collect nothing, there’s no risk of your information being compromised through our extension. Your data never leaves your browser.
