YouTube Music Web Player Search

This Privacy Policy explains how the YouTube Music Web Player Search Chrome extension ("the Extension", "we", "our", or "us") accesses, processes, and safeguards information when you install and use the Extension. We are committed to transparency and compliance with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies.

1. Overview of How the Extension Works

The Extension provides music discovery tools together with integrated web search functionality through two primary mechanisms:

• In-Extension Music Discovery: When you search for tracks, albums, or artists using the Extension popup interface, right-click context menu, or dedicated Omnibox keyword shortcut, your music query is processed through Google Programmable Search Engine (CSE) to help locate relevant YouTube Music content.
• Default Browser Search Override: Upon installation, the Extension configures the browser's default address-bar search provider to chromecrxstore.com, with search results powered by Yahoo through our search feed partner.

2. Information Processed When You Use the Extension

We do not require you to create an account, log in, or provide personal contact information such as your name, email address, phone number, or billing details to use the Extension.

Depending on how you interact with the Extension, the following non-account technical and search data may be processed:

• Search Queries: Music search terms entered into the Extension popup, highlighted text searched through the right-click context menu, or queries entered into the browser address bar are transmitted to the corresponding search provider to return relevant search results.
• Standard Web Request Metadata: Like ordinary web requests, when your browser connects to chromecrxstore.com, Google Programmable Search, or YouTube Music, standard HTTP information may be transmitted, including IP address, browser/user-agent information, language preference, and timestamp. This information is handled as part of delivering requested web pages and maintaining service security.
• Local Extension Preferences: User-interface preferences and basic extension settings may be stored locally in your browser using Chrome's local storage mechanisms and remain on your device.

3. Browser Permissions & Settings Used

The Extension requests only the permissions necessary to provide its stated functionality:

• Chrome Settings Overrides: Used to configure the default browser search provider as chromecrxstore.com.
• Context Menus: Allows you to highlight song titles or artist names on a webpage, right-click, and initiate a quick music search.
• Omnibox Keyword: Enables quick music searches directly from the Chrome address bar.
• Storage: Used to save basic extension settings locally within the browser.

4. Third-Party Search Partners & External Links

To fulfill search requests, the Extension interacts with third-party services. When a search query is submitted or you click an external result, the processing of that request may be governed by the respective provider's privacy policy.

5. Data Sharing & Prohibition on Sale of Personal Data

We do not sell, rent, lease, or trade personal user data to third parties.

We do not collect or read your personal browsing history across unrelated websites, nor do we access your private emails, passwords, financial information, or Google account credentials.

6. Chrome Web Store User Data Policy & Limited Use Compliance

The use of information received from Google APIs and Chrome extension APIs will comply with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including applicable Limited Use requirements.

The Extension uses information only as necessary to provide and improve its user-facing search and music discovery features. We do not transfer user data to third parties for unrelated advertising, creditworthiness assessment, or unauthorized data brokerage.

7. User Control & How to Opt Out or Uninstall

You have control over the Extension and your browser's search settings at all times.

• Disable or Uninstall: You may disable or remove the Extension at any time by opening chrome://extensions in Chrome, locating YouTube Music Web Player Search, and selecting Remove.
• Search Settings: You can view or change your browser's search engine settings through chrome://settings/search.

When the Extension is uninstalled, locally stored extension preferences are removed and the Extension's search-provider configuration is no longer applied.

8. Children's Privacy

The Extension is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in the Extension's functionality, applicable services, or regulatory requirements.

Any updates will be posted on this page together with a revised Effective Date.
