Seed - Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy for Seed Chrome Extension

Effective Date: April 14, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the Seed Chrome Extension ("Seed", "we", "us", or "our") handles your data. Our core philosophy is that your data is exactly that—yours.

1. Data Collection and Storage

Seed does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal, diagnostic, or usage data. The extension is designed to be a fully offline, local-first developer tool. Any schemas, mock data templates, or form mapping configurations you create are stored exclusively using Chrome's local storage mechanisms (chrome.storage.local) on your own device.

2. Form Injection and Browser Access

Seed requests the activeTab and scripting permissions to provide its core functionality: injecting mock data into web forms.

  • No Background Monitoring: Seed does not run persistent background scripts to monitor your browsing history, DOM, or network traffic.
  • Explicit Invocation: The extension only interacts with the active web page when you explicitly invoke the "Inject into form" command from the extension's side panel.
  • Local Processing: All data generated by Faker.js and inserted into web pages remains entirely within your local browser environment.

3. External Services and Telemetry

Seed does not communicate with any external APIs, servers, or third-party analytics services. No internet connection is required for data generation. We do not track how you use the extension, nor do we report crash logs or telemetry back to any server.

4. Third-Party Libraries

Seed utilizes open-source libraries (such as Faker.js and React) to function. These libraries are bundled directly into the extension and execute locally. They do not "phone home" or transmit data externally.

5. Changes to This Policy

If we update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our extension's functionality or permissions, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this document. Since we do not collect contact information, you should review this page periodically.

6. Contact Us
