Medium Helper ("we", "our", or "the extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Chrome extension.
We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data.
The Medium Helper extension:
- Does not collect any personal information
- Does not track your browsing behavior
- Does not store any data locally or remotely
- Does not use analytics or tracking services
- Does not require user accounts or registration
The extension operates entirely on your device:
- It detects limited articles on Medium.com
- It fetches article content from publicly available sources (freedium-mirror.cfd)
- All processing happens locally in your browser
- No data is sent to our servers (we don't operate any servers)
The extension requires the following permissions:
- Host permissions for medium.com: Required to detect and interact with Medium articles
- Host permissions for freedium-mirror.cfd: Required to fetch article content from the mirror service
These permissions are used solely for the extension's core functionality and do not involve data collection.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the extension's version and this document.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us through the Chrome Web Store listing.
This extension complies with:
- Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies
- General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
- California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
