YouTube Shorts Blocker (“the Extension”) is a browser extension designed to hide or remove YouTube Shorts content from the YouTube website. We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how the Extension handles user data.
This Privacy Policy explains what information the Extension collects, how it uses that information, and your choices as a user.
We do NOT collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data.
This includes, but is not limited to:
- Names
- Email addresses
- IP addresses
- Browsing history
- Cookies
- Device information
- Authentication data
- Any personally identifiable information
The Extension does not send any data to external servers.
All processing happens entirely within your browser.
YouTube Shorts Blocker works by modifying elements on the YouTube webpage locally in your browser.
To enable this functionality, the Extension may request permissions such as:
activeTabscriptingstorage(optional, for storing settings)
These permissions are used solely to:
- Detect YouTube pages
- Hide or remove Shorts content
- Apply your chosen preferences
At no point does the Extension monitor, log, or transmit your browsing activity.
Because the Extension does not collect any data, no data is ever shared with any third parties, including:
- Advertisers
- Analytics providers
- External APIs
- Any other services
There is nothing to share.
The Extension does not target or collect data from children.
It is safe for all users because it collects zero information.
