Timesink Privacy Policy
Timesink measures active browsing time and presents that information back to the user. Browsing activity is used only to provide and improve this feature. It is never used or transferred for advertising, unrelated profiling, credit decisions, or market research.
Information handled in Chrome
After the user allows activity recording, Timesink stores the focused tab’s hostname, full URL, page title, assigned category, timestamps, and active duration in the extension’s Chrome-managed database. Page-level history is kept for 30 days by default; the user can choose 7, 30, 90, or 365 days. Uploaded backgrounds are converted to WebP and stored by the extension.
Timesink ignores incognito tabs, Chrome and extension pages, local files, non-HTTP(S) URLs, unfocused windows, locked sessions, and time beyond the selected inactivity limit.
Optional account information
An account is optional. If the user creates one, Supabase processes the email address, authentication information, session tokens, and site-level activity consisting of canonical hostname, category, start and end timestamps, active duration, visit ID, device ID, and timezone. URL paths, query strings, page titles, and page content are not included in account browsing-session records.
Account browsing sessions are kept for 12 months. Account settings, custom categories, and website rules remain until the user deletes them or deletes the account.
Sharing and security
Supabase processes account information only to provide Timesink authentication, history, and analytics. Data is transmitted over HTTPS and protected by per-user access controls. Timesink does not sell browsing activity.
Humans do not read individual browsing activity unless the user specifically authorizes it for support, access is required for security or law, or the information has been aggregated and anonymized for permitted internal operations.
User controls
Users can pause the timer, clear browsing history, reset Timesink, delete account history, or permanently delete an account from Timesink settings. Removing the extension deletes its Chrome-managed storage.
Chrome Web Store Limited Use
Timesink’s use and transfer of information received from Chrome APIs complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Chrome permissions and browsing activity are used only to measure and present the user’s browsing time.
