Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

This privacy policy applies to all Chrome extensions published by PerkyDash, including:

  • PerkyDash Quick Health Check
  • PerkyDash Downtime Alert

1. Data Collection

None of our extensions collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external servers.

All processing happens locally in your browser. We have no access to your browsing activity, the websites you visit, or any data you enter.

2. Local Storage

Some extensions may store data locally in your browser (using Chrome's storage API) to provide features like check history or user preferences. This data:

  • Never leaves your browser - stored entirely on your device
  • Is not accessible to PerkyDash or any third party
  • Can be deleted at any time by clearing extension data or uninstalling the extension

3. Permissions Explained

Our extensions request only the minimum permissions necessary to function:

activeTab

To access the current tab only when you click the extension. We cannot see other tabs or your browsing history.

storage

To save preferences and check history locally in your browser. This data stays on your device.

scripting

To measure page performance metrics (when applicable). Only runs when you explicitly trigger a check.

alarms

To schedule periodic health checks for monitored websites in the background. Used by Downtime Alert to check sites every 5 minutes.

notifications

To alert you when a monitored website goes down or recovers. Notifications are only sent for sites you explicitly added to monitoring.

4. Third-Party Services

Our extensions do not use any third-party analytics, tracking, or data collection services.

There are no ads, no telemetry, no tracking pixels, and no external API calls that transmit your personal information.

5. Updates

This policy may be updated when new extensions are released or when existing extensions add new features. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page to reflect any changes.
