Your privacy matters.
Effective date: November 10, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Link Highlighter™ (the “Extension”) handles information when you use the Chrome browser extension. The Extension helps identify and highlight DoFollow, NoFollow and Sponsored links on the webpage you choose to analyse.
1. Information processed by the Extension
When you activate a highlighting or reset feature, the Extension accesses the currently active webpage to identify hyperlinks and read the information needed for the feature, including:
- Link URLs
- Anchor text or accessible link labels
- Link
relattributes, includingnofollowandsponsored - Counts of DoFollow, NoFollow, Sponsored and total links on that page
This information is processed in the browser to display highlights and counters. It is not transmitted to the Extension developer. The Extension does not maintain a browsing history or crawl the entire website.
2. CSV exports
If you choose “Export All Links to CSV”, the Extension creates a CSV file on your device containing link type, URL, anchor text and rel attributes for the links detected on the current page. The file is provided through Chrome's download functionality. The Extension does not upload the CSV file.
3. Preferences stored locally
The Extension uses Chrome's local storage to remember your selected appearance theme and text size. These preferences remain in your browser and are not sent to the Extension developer.
4. Feedback form
If you choose to submit the feedback form, the Extension sends the information below to Formspree, our feedback form service:
- The feedback message you enter
- Your email address, if you choose to provide one
- The URL of the currently active tab, to provide context for your report
- The Extension version included with the submission
Submitting feedback is optional and happens only after you press the send button. Formspree processes the submission on our behalf and handles it under its own privacy terms. See the Formspree Privacy Policy. Do not include passwords, payment details or other sensitive information in feedback.
5. Sharing and clipboard
If you use the sharing feature, the Extension prepares a message for the sharing option you select. If you choose to copy the message, it is copied to your clipboard. The Extension does not collect clipboard contents or transmit the copied message to us.
6. Information we do not collect
Except for information you voluntarily submit through the feedback form as described above, the Extension does not send us the webpage content it analyses, detected link data, CSV exports, browsing history, passwords, payment information or location data. It does not sell user data or use analysed webpage information for advertising.
7. Sharing and service providers
We do not sell or rent personal information. Feedback submissions are transmitted to Formspree solely to receive and manage feedback. Formspree may process submitted information as described in its privacy policy. We do not share locally analysed link data or exported CSV files with third parties.
8. Data retention and control
Theme and text-size preferences remain in Chrome's local storage until changed or removed. CSV files are saved wherever you choose through Chrome's download process. Feedback submissions are handled and retained by Formspree according to its service terms and applicable settings. You can avoid sending feedback information by not submitting the feedback form.
9. Children's privacy
The Extension is a general-purpose SEO utility and is not designed to collect personal information from children.
10. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated if the Extension's features or data practices change. The latest version will be published at this page, with its effective date updated accordingly.
