We never collect your data.

Marks (the "Extension") is a Chrome browser extension that replaces the default new-tab page with a personal bookmarks dashboard. This Privacy Policy describes — in plain English — what data the Extension touches, where it lives, and who can see it.

1. Summary

• The Extension does not contact any remote server.
• The Extension does not collect analytics, telemetry, crash reports, or any usage data.
• All bookmarks, workspaces, collections and tags you create are stored locally on your device in chrome.storage.local.
• No third parties receive any of your information through the Extension.
• There are no accounts, no sign-up, no login.

2. What data the Extension handles

The Extension lets you save and organize the URLs, page titles, descriptions and tags you choose. This data is created and read entirely on your device. Specifically:

• URLs and titles you save (manually or via the toolbar popup, context menu or keyboard shortcut).
• Tags, descriptions, collections and workspace names you create.
• UI preferences (selected theme, active workspace).

When you click the Import button to import your existing Chrome bookmarks, the Extension calls chrome.bookmarks.getTree()once to read the list of bookmarks already stored by Chrome. The Extension never modifies Chrome's native bookmarks. The read happens entirely on your device and the data is then written to the Extension's own local storage.

3. Where the data is stored

Exclusively on your device, inside the browser profile, via the standard Chrome Extension storage API (chrome.storage.local). Uninstalling the Extension wipes that data automatically.

4. Permissions

Chrome shows the user a list of permissions on install. Here is exactly why each one is requested:

• storage — Used to persist the user's bookmarks, workspaces, collections, tags and UI preferences between browser sessions.
• bookmarks — Used only when the user clicks the Import button, to read existing Chrome bookmarks via chrome.bookmarks.getTree(). The Extension never writes to or modifies the native Chrome bookmarks.
• contextMenus — Used to register the right-click "Save to Marks" item on pages and links.
• activeTab — Used by the toolbar popup to read the URL, title and favicon of the tab the user is currently on, so the popup can pre-fill the bookmark form. No other tab is ever accessed.

5. Third parties

None. The Extension contacts no remote endpoints, embeds no analytics or advertising libraries, and ships no remote code. Page favicons displayed in the dashboard are loaded from Google's public favicon service (www.google.com/s2/favicons) using only the host name of each saved bookmark — same behavior that Chrome itself uses to render favicons.

6. Children's privacy

The Extension is a general-purpose productivity tool. It is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone — including children.

7. Changes to this policy

If we ever change how Marks handles data, this page will be updated and a new version of the Extension will be published in the Chrome Web Store with a clear changelog entry. Material changes will be flagged in the Extension on first launch.
