Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 12, 2025
Thank you for using the Checkout Genie Chrome Extension (“the Extension”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Chrome Extension and related website https://checkoutgenie.com/.
1. Information We Collect
We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII) from users. The Extension may collect limited technical or anonymous data necessary for functionality and performance improvement, such as:
- Extension version and browser type (for debugging or analytics)
- Non-personal usage statistics (e.g., number of coupon activations)
- Anonymous event data related to coupon usage (e.g., which stores were visited)
We do not collect or store:
- Names, email addresses, or phone numbers
- Payment or financial information
- Browsing history outside of supported shopping sites
2. How We Use Information
Any information collected is used solely to:
- Improve coupon accuracy and user experience
- Detect and fix technical issues
- Analyze anonymized usage trends
We do not sell, rent, or share any data with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.
3. Permissions Used
The Checkout Genie extension may request certain Chrome permissions such as:
- ActiveTab / Tabs — to detect when you’re visiting a supported store and display relevant coupons.
- Storage — to save user preferences locally on your device.
- Scripting — to inject coupon display functionality on shopping sites.
These permissions are only used to provide the core coupon functionality and are never used to track your general browsing behavior.
4. Third-Party Services
The extension may interact with:
- Checkout Genie APIs (hosted on checkoutgenie.com) to fetch updated coupon data.
- Analytics tools (if used) for anonymous usage metrics — never for personal tracking.
Any third-party service we use complies with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
5. Data Storage and Security
- No personal data is stored on our servers.
- Local data stored by the extension remains on your browser and can be deleted by uninstalling the extension.
- We implement reasonable security measures to protect all data handled by our systems.
6. Your Choices
- You can remove or disable the extension at any time via Chrome settings.
- You can clear locally stored data from the extension settings.
If you have questions or requests related to your data, contact us at support@checkoutgenie.com.
