Privacy policy

find-extensions.com is a static, independent directory with no accounts and no login. We keep only what security requires: standard Cloudflare server logs, plus a small list of your recent searches saved in your own browser. We don't sell data, track you for ads, or run analytics today. Details below.

Overview

find-extensions.com is an independent, static directory of Chrome extensions. There's no user account system and no login — you can browse, search, and read every page without ever creating a profile.

This policy explains, in plain English, the few places where technical or usage data touches this site, and nothing more than that.

Hosting and server logs

This site is served through Cloudflare, our hosting and content delivery network (CDN) provider. Like almost every website, Cloudflare automatically records standard server and security logs for each request.

IP address
the network address your device used to reach the site
Browser and device info
your browser's user agent string
Requested URL
the page or file you asked for
Timestamp
when the request happened

We use these logs only for security (blocking abuse and attacks) and reliability (keeping the site fast and online). We don't use them to build advertising profiles.

Browser storage (the search palette)

The search palette on this site saves your last few searches in your own browser's storage (localStorage), under an entry named fe-recent.

This data never leaves your device — it isn't sent to our servers or to any third party. You can clear it any time using the Clear button in the search palette, or by clearing your browser's site data for find-extensions.com.

No advertising or tracking cookies

We don't set advertising or tracking cookies on this site.

Analytics

We don't currently run any analytics on find-extensions.com — no page-view tracking, no third-party analytics scripts, nothing.

If that changes

If we add privacy-friendly analytics in the future, we'll update this policy first, before it goes live, so you can see exactly what's being measured.

Newsletter (Extension Weekly)

We're planning a newsletter called Extension Weekly, but it isn't collecting email addresses yet.

When it goes live, signing up will only require your email address. New subscribers will confirm through double opt-in (a confirmation email you must click before you're subscribed), and every issue will include an unsubscribe link. We'll name the newsletter provider we use in this policy once the newsletter launches.

Contact by email

If you email us at hello@find-extensions.com, we use your email address and the content of your message only to reply to you. A support message doesn't add you to any marketing list.

Data sharing and your rights

We don't sell or rent personal data to anyone, and we don't use any data collected on this site for advertising profiling.

Depending on where you live, data protection law — such as the GDPR and UK GDPR in Europe, or the CCPA/CPRA in California — may give you rights over your personal data, including the right to:

  • Access the data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Ask us to delete your data
  • Object to how we use your data

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@find-extensions.com. Because this site collects very little personal data in the first place, most requests will be quick to resolve.

Children's privacy

This site isn't directed at children under 13 (under 16 in the EU), and we don't knowingly collect personal data from them.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site changes — for example, if we add analytics or launch the newsletter. The Updated date at the top of this page always reflects the latest version, and we'll describe any new data practice here before it goes live.

Privacy policy: FAQs

Does find-extensions.com require an account or login?

No. The site is fully static and doesn't have user accounts, sign-in, or profiles. You can browse extension listings, use search, and read reviews without ever creating an account or providing personal details.

What personal data does find-extensions.com collect?

Very little. Cloudflare, our hosting provider, logs standard technical details like your IP address and browser type for security. Your recent searches are saved only in your own browser. We don't collect names, accounts, or payment details.

Does the site use cookies?

We don't set advertising or tracking cookies. The only browser storage we use is localStorage for the search palette's recent-searches feature, which stays on your device and is never transmitted to us.

What is the 'fe-recent' entry in my browser?

It's the local storage key the search palette uses to remember your last few searches, so they appear again when you reopen the palette. It lives only in your browser and you can clear it anytime.

How do I clear my saved search history?

Click the Clear button inside the search palette, or clear your browser's site data for find-extensions.com through your browser's settings. Either method removes the locally stored 'fe-recent' entry completely.

Does find-extensions.com use Google Analytics or similar tools?

Not currently. We run no analytics of any kind today. If we add privacy-friendly analytics later, we'll update this policy first so you know exactly what's being measured before it goes live.

Will signing up for Extension Weekly share my email with anyone else?

The newsletter isn't live yet. Once it launches, we'll only collect your email address, use double opt-in confirmation, include an unsubscribe link in every issue, and name our email provider in this policy.

What happens to my data when I click 'Add to Chrome'?

You're redirected through a /go/ link to the extension's official Chrome Web Store page. We may eventually count clicks in aggregate, but once you reach the Chrome Web Store, Google's privacy policy governs that page.

Does find-extensions.com sell my data to advertisers?

No. We don't sell or rent personal data, and we don't run advertising profiling on this site. The limited data described in this policy is used only for security, reliability, and replying to your emails.

Can I request that my data be deleted?

Yes. Email hello@find-extensions.com and we'll act on requests to access, correct, delete, or object to any personal data we hold, in line with GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA style rights.

Is find-extensions.com safe for children to use?

The site isn't directed at children under 13 (under 16 in the EU), and we don't knowingly collect personal data from anyone in that age group. Parents with concerns can contact us anytime.
