Privacy Policy for FlowState Tracker
Introduction FlowState Tracker ("we," "our," or "this extension") is dedicated to empowering your focus and enhancing your productivity while rigorously protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines our comprehensive practices concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of information solely within the context of your interaction with our Chrome extension. We are committed to transparency and ensuring your understanding of how your data is handled.
Information Collection and Use
Strictly Local Data Storage and Processing: FlowState Tracker is fundamentally designed as a privacy-centric tool. All user data, including your personal preferences, productivity metrics, and task history, is processed and stored exclusively on your local device utilizing Chrome's secure, built-in storage APIs (specifically chrome.storage.sync). We uphold a strict policy of not collecting, transmitting, or storing any of your personal data on external servers or cloud services managed by us or any third party. Your data remains entirely within your browser environment.
Categories of Information Stored Locally: The extension stores the following types of information directly on your device to enable its core functionalities and personalize your experience:
-
Gmail Connection Status: A flag indicating whether you have successfully connected your Gmail account for reporting.
-
User Email Address: Your primary Google email address, retrieved with your explicit consent via the identity.email permission, used solely as the recipient address for your requested productivity reports.
-
Productivity Statistics: Aggregated data including your current focus streak, total completed sessions, and total abandoned sessions.
-
Last Activity Timestamp: A date string used to calculate your streak, indicating the last day a focus session was recorded.
-
Recent Tasks: A list of your most recently initiated task descriptions, serving as a convenience feature for quick re-entry.
-
Daily Task History Logs: Detailed records of your completed focus sessions, including task names, their final status (e.g., "COMPLETED," "ABANDONED_EARLY"), the timestamp of completion, and the actual duration of the session.
-
Extension Settings and Preferences: Any configuration choices you make within the extension's interface.
No External Data Transmission or Sharing: Your privacy is paramount. FlowState Tracker is engineered to ensure your data never leaves your browser without your explicit and direct initiation for email sending. The extension absolutely does not:
-
Transmit any data to external servers or databases operated by us or third parties, except for API calls to Google's official services strictly for sending emails on your behalf, with your token.
-
Employ any third-party analytics, tracking tools, or advertising services.
-
Share, sell, or rent any of your information with third parties for any purpose.
-
Require or implement any form of account creation or authentication beyond Google's standard OAuth flow, which you control.
-
Monitor your general browsing history, tab content, or any website visits beyond the scope of necessary Gmail API interactions for sending your own reports.
Permissions Required and Their Justification: FlowState Tracker requests the following permissions to fulfill its stated purpose:
-
storage: Essential for persistently saving all your local data (preferences, stats, task history) so that your progress is remembered across browser sessions.
-
notifications: Used to deliver timely alerts when your 15-minute focus sessions conclude, prompting your feedback.
-
alarms: Enables the scheduling of background tasks, such as periodic badge updates, session completion triggers, and automated weekly summary email dispatches.
-
identity: Required to securely authenticate you with your Google account via OAuth 2.0, allowing the extension to obtain an access token needed for Google API interactions (specifically for Gmail).
-
identity.email: A sub-scope of identity, used solely to retrieve your primary Google email address, which serves as the recipient for the personalized productivity reports you elect to send yourself.
-
host_permissions (https://www.googleapis.com/*, https://gmail.googleapis.com/*): These specific host permissions are strictly limited to enable secure communication with Google's official APIs. https://www.googleapis.com/* is for OAuth token management and fetching your email address (userinfo endpoint). https://gmail.googleapis.com/* is exclusively for sending the personalized email reports on your behalf via the Gmail API's messages.send endpoint. The extension does not access or transmit any other data from these hosts.
Data Processing Principles: The extension processes your task-related information temporarily in your browser's memory and stores it locally to:
-
Manage active focus session timers and display real-time progress.
-
Calculate and display your productivity statistics (streak, completed/abandoned counts).
-
Compile and format individual session summaries and daily task logs for email delivery.
-
Display your recent tasks and task history within the extension's user interface. No raw tab URLs, browsing history, or sensitive content is permanently stored or transmitted externally by the extension's core logic beyond what is necessary for the explicit email sending functionality you initiate.
Data Retention and User Control: You retain complete control over your data stored by FlowState Tracker:
-
You can modify or delete individual task entries from your daily log directly through the extension's interface.
-
You can clear your list of recent tasks at any time.
-
You can manage your Gmail connection status within the extension.
-
If you choose to uninstall the FlowState Tracker extension from your Chrome browser, all associated local data stored by the extension will be automatically and permanently deleted from your device.
Chrome Sync Functionality: If you have Google Chrome's synchronization feature enabled in your browser settings, your locally stored FlowState Tracker data (including preferences, stats, and task history) may be securely synced across your Chrome instances using Google's encrypted sync infrastructure. This synchronization is managed entirely by Chrome and adheres to Google's comprehensive Privacy Policy. You have the option to disable Chrome sync for extension data within your browser's settings if you prefer.
Changes to This Privacy Policy: We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will notify you by posting the revised Privacy Policy on the Chrome Web Store listing page for FlowState Tracker and updating the "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
