Last Updated: June 2025

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how SmartMailExpander ("we", "our", or "the extension") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our Chrome extension.

Information Collection and Use

SmartMailExpander collects and stores only the following user preferences locally in your browser:

• Color settings for expanded text
• Indentation preferences
• Extension enabled/disabled state

These settings are stored using Chrome's built-in storage API (chrome.storage) and are used solely for personalizing your experience with the extension.

Email Content

SmartMailExpander does NOT:

• Collect or store any email content
• Track your email usage
• Send any data to external servers
• Share any information with third parties

Data Storage

All user preferences are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API. Some settings are synced across your devices through your Chrome account if you're signed in, but this is handled securely by Chrome's built-in syncing mechanism.

Permissions

The extension requires certain permissions to function:

• storage: To save your preferences locally
• tabs: To interact with Gmail tabs
• host permission (mail.google.com): To modify Gmail's interface for expanding email content

Third-Party Services

The extension uses the following third-party libraries, which are included locally in the extension package:

• jQuery (for DOM manipulation)
• TinyColor (for color handling)
• Spectrum (for color picker functionality)

These libraries are used solely for the extension's functionality and do not collect or transmit any data.
