Privacy Policy
Notice: Updated policy effective 10th June 2026. This page shows an updated version of our Privacy Policy, which will take effect on 10th June 2026. Tweak Technologies is providing existing users with at least thirty (30) days' notice prior to that date. Until 10th June 2026 the version of this policy in effect prior to that date continues to apply to existing users.
Introduction​
This Privacy Policy describes how Tweak Technologies collects, uses, and protects your data when you use our Products. Your privacy matters to us. In this Privacy Policy:
- "Products" means our website https://tweak-extension.com, our browser extensions, and any other website or service we operate.
- "Browser extensions" means all of our browser extensions, currently available for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox.
Collection of Information​
We use Google Analytics to collect information about how you use our Products. Google Analytics also collects information such as device type (mobile/desktop) and approximate geographic location. Our primary purpose in collecting analytics data is to track bugs and enhance the usability of our Products.
Data Security​
Our browser extensions do not store any application data (a.k.a. rules, a.k.a. mocks) on remote servers at any point in time. All such rules created by the user in our browser extensions are stored on the user's device only. We rely solely on the browser's storage capabilities to store your application data. We do not use storage.sync. All usage information that our Products collect is stored on Google's servers as part of Google Analytics.
Personal Information​
While using our Products, we may collect information that can be used to contact or identify you, as set out below.
Checkout. Your email address is collected during checkout. Payments are processed by our reseller partner Paddle, which acts as the merchant of record and processes payment data in accordance with its own privacy policy. We use your email address to verify with Paddle that you have an active Subscription, to send transactional messages relating to that Subscription, and to enable you to activate the Software on your device.
Sign-in. If you sign in using GitHub or Google, the relevant identity provider shares with us the email address associated with your account. We use it solely to authenticate you and to associate your sign-in with your active Subscription. We do not receive your password from these providers.
Fraud Prevention and License Enforcement​
To protect the integrity of our paid services and to enforce our Terms and Conditions, our End-User License Agreement, and our Acceptable Use Policy, we process a limited set of technical signals associated with your use of the Software and your Subscription. These signals may include:
- IP Logging. IP addresses associated with your sessions and approximate geographic location derived from IP.
- Device Fingerprinting. Device and browser type, version, and configuration signals that, taken together, form a non-unique fingerprint used to recognize repeat installations.
- Session Telemetry. Login and session timestamps, the number and pattern of concurrent or sequential active sessions, and the number of distinct installations associated with a single license key or account.
We use this information solely to detect and prevent unauthorized sharing of account credentials or license keys, use of a single Subscription by more than one individual, circumvention of seat or licensing limits, and other forms of fraud, abuse, or breach of our terms. We do not use it for advertising, for behavioural profiling unrelated to license enforcement, or for sale to third parties.
Where we are subject to the EU General Data Protection Regulation or equivalent laws, the legal basis for this processing is, for users with an active Subscription, the performance of our contract with you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR), specifically our right and obligation to enforce the terms of that Subscription. For users without an active Subscription, and to the extent processing goes beyond what is strictly necessary for contract performance, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in protecting our paid services, our customers, and our business from abuse and fraud (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), balanced against your privacy rights. We retain this information only for as long as is necessary for these purposes. You may contact us at [email protected] to exercise any rights you may have over this data under applicable law.
Cookies​
Like many websites, we and our partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers use "cookies" to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We use both persistent cookies that remain on your computer or similar device (such as Google Analytics related cookies) and session ID cookies, which expire at the end of your browser session (for example, to activate a Subscription in your current browser).
Embedded Scripts​
We and our partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers may also employ software technology known as Embedded Scripts. An Embedded Script is code that is designed to collect information about your interactions with our Products, such as the links you click on. The code is temporarily downloaded onto your computer or other device and is deactivated or deleted when you disconnect from our Products.
Data Retention​
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. Subscription and account records are retained for the duration of your Subscription and for a reasonable period thereafter to comply with our legal, accounting, and tax obligations. Information collected for fraud prevention and abuse detection is retained for the period necessary to investigate, prevent, and act on abuse, and is deleted thereafter unless we are required to retain it longer by law.
Your Rights​
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights in relation to your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, the right to data portability, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the time limits required by applicable law.
Changes and updates to this policy​
Tweak Technologies reserves the right to change this policy. If a change is material, Tweak Technologies will provide at least thirty (30) days' notice prior to the new policy taking effect, by in-app notification, by email to the address linked to your Subscription, or by a prominent notice on https://tweak-extension.com. Non-material changes (for example, formatting, typographical corrections, or clarifications that do not adversely affect your rights) may be made at any time. Each time this policy is changed we will revise the "Effective date" at the bottom of this page. Continued use of the Products after the effective date of any change constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

If you have any further questions regarding this policy, you may contact us by sending an email to [email protected].
