+# Privacy Policy for Privacy Redirect
+
+**I solemnly swear this extension is up to only good! 🙂**
+
+All aspects of the extension work locally on your device. With the exception of 
+OpenStreetMap (OSM) reverse geocoding, done via the [OSM Nomantim API](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/), 
+used as part of OSM redirects, the extension does not connect to any other
+third-party web services and it doesn’t collect or transmit 
+any infromation about you, your browsing habits, or your device.
+
+The extension requires access to you data for **all websites** in order 
+to intercept requests made to targeted services (Twitter, YouTube, Instagram & 
+Google Maps) so that they may be redirected to the appropriate privacy 
+respecting alternative, all other requests are ignored.
+
+The extension also requires **local storage** permissions in order to store 
+extension specific user preferences and settings.
+
+The extension development is funded through gifts, donations and love.
