Privacy Policy for the Browser Extension adninja.net

This privacy policy provides comprehensive information about the processing of personal data in connection with the use of the browser extension ad-ninja.net. Protecting your data is our top priority. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and this privacy policy.

1. General Information on Data Processing

The processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), and other applicable data protection provisions. We process personal data of users of our extension only to the extent necessary to provide functional software and deliver our services.

The use of our extension is generally possible without providing any personal data. The processing of personal data only occurs in exceptional cases and with full compliance with all applicable data protection principles.

2. Definitions

This privacy policy is based on the terminology used in the GDPR. In this document, the following terms mean:

  • Personal data: Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
  • Processing: Any operation performed on personal data, whether or not by automated means.
  • Pseudonymization: Processing of personal data in such a way that it can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without additional information.
  • Controller: The natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or other body that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.

3. Scope of Processing

  • Local storage of settings and configuration data
  • Analysis of technical errors (crash reporting, error logs)
  • Optional: integration of third-party APIs

There is no user registration or account creation required or provided in the extension.

4. Automatically Collected Technical Data

  • Extension version
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system and version
  • Browser language settings
  • Date and time of use
  • Technical error reports (if enabled)
  • Events such as installation, update, uninstallation

This information is processed anonymously or pseudonymously and is used to improve stability and security.

5. Local Data Storage

  • Custom user settings (e.g., layout, color scheme)
  • Enabled/disabled features
  • User-defined whitelists or blacklists
  • Last status (e.g., last opened page)

This data does not leave your device and is neither synchronized nor linked to a personal account.

6. Interaction with Website Content

To provide features such as content analysis, blocking of content, or contextual hints, the extension may access the content of websites you visit. This is done in real time, on the client side, without storing or transmitting the content.

  • Analyze DOM content (e.g., recognize texts or links)
  • Identify and visually highlight specific elements
  • Insert context menus or interactive overlays

None of this data is transmitted to extension servers, unless you activate a feature that explicitly requires it (e.g., sending feedback).

7. Extension Permissions

  • Read access to website content
  • Access to browser tabs
  • Storage of data in local storage
  • Communication with external APIs

Permissions are used only to the extent necessary and exclusively for the intended functions. They are displayed by the browser upon installation or when activating a feature and must be explicitly confirmed.

8. Error Logs and Crash Reports

  • Timestamps
  • Extension version
  • Technical description of the error
  • Browser and operating system information

These reports help us improve the application and identify errors. It is not possible to associate them with specific users.

9. Analytics

Only with your explicit consent can aggregated and pseudonymized usage data be processed for analytical purposes. This may include:

  • Frequency of feature usage
  • Interaction within the extension
  • Click behavior
  • Session duration
  • Device type and operating system

This data is used solely for internal optimization purposes and is never shared with third parties.

10. Third-Party Services

  • Firebase (Google LLC): for anonymous usage tracking
  • Stripe / PayPal: for payment processing (only if donations are enabled)
  • Cloudflare: for performance optimization
  • Sentry.io: for error analysis

The respective privacy policies of these providers apply. Data is only transmitted with your consent.

11. Security of Processing

  • TLS/SSL encryption for data transfers
  • Access controls
  • Logging and monitoring
  • Regular security updates

12. Storage Duration and Deletion

  • Local data: remains until the extension is uninstalled or the data is deleted by the user
  • Analytics and crash data: maximum of 90 days

You can reset your data manually at any time or remove the extension.

13. Your Rights

  • Request information about your stored data
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Delete or restrict the processing of your data
  • Request data portability
  • Object to data processing
  • Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

You can exercise these rights directly via the extension settings or by contacting support.

14. No Disclosure or Sale of Personal Data

We do not sell or rent personal data to third parties. Data is only shared when:

  • Required by law
  • Necessary for fulfilling a contract
  • You have explicitly consented
  • Required to prevent threats or misuse

15. Use of Cookies

The extension itself does not use cookies. However, when interacting with external websites (e.g., support pages or payment providers), cookies may be set by those third-party sites. Please refer to their respective privacy policies.

16. International Data Transfers

If data is transferred to third countries (e.g., the USA), this is done only based on appropriate safeguards under Article 46 GDPR, such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions by the European Commission.

17. Global Applicability

While this privacy policy is primarily based on European data protection law (GDPR), we also strive to comply with other global privacy frameworks. Users outside of the European Union may have additional rights under their local laws. We aim to honor those rights in the following ways:

  • California, USA (CCPA/CPRA): Right to know, request deletion, and opt-out of data sale (we do not sell data)
  • Canada (PIPEDA): Right to access and correct personal information, and lodge complaints
  • Brazil (LGPD): Right to access, correct, delete, and object to processing of data
  • Other regions: We will do our best to meet your rights based on local laws

Users may contact support via the extension to exercise these rights.

18. Updates to this Privacy Policy

This privacy policy may be updated at any time. Please regularly review the current version provided in the extension or on the associated website.

19. Contact
