Privacy Policy - YT Autolike
Effective date: 2026-05-06
This Privacy Policy explains how the YT Autolike Chrome extension handles data. The extension automatically likes YouTube videos/Shorts from channels you explicitly add.
Summary: data is stored locally in your browser via chrome.storage.local. No personal data is sold, shared with data brokers, or transferred to external servers by this extension.
1. Data We Process
- Favorite channels list: channel identifiers and metadata you add.
- Settings: extension preferences (for example, enabled/disabled state).
- Like history: local history entries related to auto-like actions.
- Current YouTube page context: video/channel identifiers required to detect whether auto-like should run.
2. Where Data Is Stored
- Data is stored locally in your browser using chrome.storage.local.
- The extension does not run its own backend and does not upload your extension data to our servers.
3. How Data Is Used
- To determine if the current YouTube channel is in your favorites.
- To render and update extension UI state (buttons, popup, counters).
- To execute the auto-like feature when conditions match your configuration.
4. Permissions and Access
- storage: save preferences/channel list/history locally.
- activeTab and host permission https://www.youtube.com/*: detect relevant page state and interact with YouTube like controls.
5. Data Sharing and Selling
- We do not sell your personal data.
- We do not share your personal data with third parties for advertising or profiling.
- We do not transfer your extension data to external databases controlled by us.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
- You can delete extension data at any time by clearing the extension storage or uninstalling the extension.
- Because data is local, retention is controlled by your browser profile and your actions.
7. Security
We apply a minimal-permission approach and store data locally whenever possible. However, no software system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
8. Changes to This Policy
This policy may be updated to reflect product or legal changes. Updates will be published at this same URL with an updated effective date.
