I solemnly swear this extension is up to only good! 🙂

Privacy Redirect does not collect any Personal Information of any kind.

  • Privacy Redirect has no home server.
  • Privacy Redirect doesn't embed any kind of analytics in its code.

All aspects of the extension work locally in your browser, with the exception of OpenStreetMap (OSM) reverse geocoding, done via the OSM Nomantim API, used as part of OSM redirects, which can be disabled by toggling the OSM redirects.

The extension does not connect to any other third-party web services and it does not collect or transmit any information about you, your browsing habits, or your device.

Permissions

The extension requires access to request 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.

Funding

The extension development is funded through gifts and donations.
