Introduction

Welcome to our privacy policy

Thank you for choosing AliExpress Price Tracker Pro. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Chrome extension.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices. This extension was built with a privacy-first approach, meaning your data stays on your device and is never transmitted to external servers.

Key Point: AliExpress Price Tracker Pro is designed to work entirely offline. All your tracked products, price history, and preferences are stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage API.

  • Price History Charts – Displaying historical price trends and analytics
  • Dashboard Display – Showing your tracked products in the extension popup
  • Export/Import – Allowing you to backup and restore your data

Remember: All processing happens locally in your browser. No data is ever sent to our servers or any third party.

Your data security is ensured through multiple layers:

Third-Party Services

External connections explained

Our extension interacts with the following external services:

  • AliExpress Website – The extension reads product information (price, title, image) from AliExpress product pages you visit. This is necessary for the core tracking functionality.
  • Chrome Web Store – For premium purchases, payments are processed securely through Google's Chrome Web Store payment system. We never see or store your payment details.

Note: We do not use any analytics services, advertising networks, or data brokers. Your usage patterns are never tracked or sold.

Premium Features & Payments

How premium purchases work

When you purchase premium features:

  • Payment Processing – All payments are handled by Google through the Chrome Web Store
  • No Direct Payment Data – We never receive or store your credit card or payment information
  • License Verification – Premium status is verified locally through Chrome's licensing API
  • One-Time Purchase – Premium is a one-time payment of $3 with lifetime access

Children's Privacy

Protection for younger users

Our extension is designed for general audiences and does not knowingly collect information from children under 13 years of age. Since we don't collect any personal information from any users, this naturally extends protection to children as well.

Changes to This Policy

How we handle updates

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes:

  • Version Update – The extension will be updated with the new policy version
  • Date Updated – The "Last Updated" date at the top will reflect the change
  • Material Changes – For significant changes, we'll notify you through the extension

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
