1. Introduction

IG User Track ("Extension", "we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use our browser extension and related services.

2. Information Collection

2.1 Personal Information

When you sign in using Google Login, we collect:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your profile picture (URL)

This information is used to manage your account, identify your subscription status, and sync your data across devices.

2.2 Usage Information (Local-Only)

The Extension interacts with publicly available data on Instagram. The following data is collected and stored **EXCLUSIVELY on your local device**:

• Usernames of Instagram profiles you choose to track
• Follower and following counts and lists of tracked profiles
• Timestamps and results of your scans

Note: This data is stored only in your browser's local storage or indexedDB. It is **never** uploaded to our servers or synced to the cloud.

2.3 Sensitive Data

We do not collect or store your Instagram password. The Extension operates within your browser and uses your existing Instagram session.

3. Use of Information

We use the collected information to:

• Provide the Extension's core functionality (tracking followers/following)
• Manage your Pro subscription and features
• Provide support and respond to inquiries
• Improve the functionality and safety of the Extension

4. Data Storage and Retention

• Local Storage: All scraped Instagram profiles, lists, counts, and change history are stored locally in your browser. This data never leaves your device.
• Cloud Storage: Only basic account metadata (email, name, profile URL) and subscription status are stored in Google Firebase (US Central region) for account management purposes.
• Retention: Local data remains until you delete it or uninstall the Extension. Cloud metadata is retained as long as your account is active.

5. Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We only share information with third-party service providers (like Stripe for payments or Firebase for hosting/database) as necessary to provide our services.

6. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
