PawKey Tracker Privacy Policy 🐾
Last Updated: June 16, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how PawKey Tracker ("the Extension") collects, uses, and protects your data. By using the PawKey Tracker Chrome Extension, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. Data Collection
The PawKey Tracker Extension is designed to help you monitor your typing activity. To do this, it collects the following data:
- Keystroke Count: The total number of non-modifier, non-special key presses you make.
- Daily Keystroke Count: A count of your key presses reset daily.
- Lifetime Keystroke Count: A cumulative total of all your key presses since you started using the extension.
No actual keystroke content (e.g., words, passwords, specific characters) is collected, stored, or transmitted. Only the numerical count of key presses is recorded.
2. Data Usage
The collected data (keystroke counts) is used exclusively for the following purposes:
- To display your daily key press activity on the active web page via the floating cat widget.
- To display your daily and lifetime key press statistics within the extension's popup.
- To provide you with a visual animation of a cat typing based on your keyboard activity.
3. Data Storage and Security
- Local Storage: All keystroke count data (daily and lifetime) is stored **ONLY on your local device** using Chrome's local storage (`chrome.storage.local`).
- No External Transmission: Your keystroke count data is **NEVER sent to any external servers, cloud services, or third parties.** It remains entirely on your device.
- No Sale of Data: We do not sell or share your data with any third parties for advertising, marketing, or any other purposes.
4. Data Retention
- Daily Count: The daily keystroke count is automatically reset to zero at the beginning of each new day (every 24 hours).
- Lifetime Count: The lifetime keystroke count is retained indefinitely on your local device for as long as the extension is installed and not cleared by the user.
5. User Control and Data Deletion
You have full control over your data within the extension:
- Toggle Visibility: You can hide or show the cat widget at any time via the extension's popup.
- Clear All Data: You can clear all accumulated daily and lifetime keystroke data directly from the extension's popup. This action is irreversible. When data is cleared, you will be prompted to re-consent to tracking.
- Uninstall Extension: Uninstalling the PawKey Tracker extension from Chrome will remove all locally stored data associated with the extension from your device.
6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page within the extension. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
