HUDDDLE – BUILD IN PUBLIC EXTENSION PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: December 2025
Hudddle (“we”, “our”, “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the Hudddle – Build in Public Chrome Extension (“the Extension”) collects, uses, and safeguards your information.
By using the Extension, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
The Extension only collects the minimum data required to enable progress tracking and publishing your Build-in-Public updates. The data collected is always user-initiated.
1.1 Authentication Information
When you sign in using Google OAuth, we access:
Your Google account email
Your Google profile name
Your Google profile image (if available)
This is limited to the scopes you explicitly approve during login.
1.2 Website Context (User-Initiated Only)
When you start a work session or publish a progress update, the Extension may read:
The active tab’s title
The active tab’s URL
This helps you log what you were working on.
The Extension does not track your browsing history, monitor other tabs, or collect background data.
1.3 Screen Captures (Optional)
If you choose to capture your screen, we collect:
A screenshot image generated by Chrome’s
desktopCaptureAPI
The Extension cannot capture screenshots automatically. You must explicitly confirm each capture through Chrome’s built-in screen picker.
1.4 User Activity (Extension-Only)
To support session tracking, we process:
Start and stop times of your work sessions
Drafts or notes you write inside the Extension
This data is stored locally or sent to your Hudddle account only when you submit it.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data exclusively for the Extension’s core purpose:
Authenticate you with your Hudddle account
Track your work sessions and progress
Help you generate, save, or publish Build-in-Public updates
Improve user experience and extension functionality
We do not collect or process information beyond what is required for these features.
3. What We Do NOT Do
We do not:
Sell your data
Share your data with advertisers
Monitor your browsing history
Collect data in the background
Access or store data unrelated to your extension activity
Use your information for credit, financial evaluation, or profiling
4. Data Sharing
We only share your data in these situations:

as part of publishing your updates.
4.2 With Google (Authentication Only)
Google OAuth handles login.
We do not receive your password or sensitive account access.
No other third parties receive your data.
5. Data Storage & Security
Local data is stored using Chrome’s
storageAPI.Server submissions are transmitted via secure HTTPS.
We do not store unnecessary data or retain data longer than needed.
We apply industry-standard security practices to protect your information.
