Privacy Policy

GitRevamp Chrome Extension — Last updated: 15 March 2026

Overview

GitRevamp does not collect, store, transmit, or sell any personal data. This policy explains exactly what the extension does and does not do with your data.

Data We Do NOT Collect

GitRevamp does not collect any of the following:

• Personal identifiable information (name, email, address)
• Browsing history or web activity
• GitHub account details or credentials
• Clicks, keystrokes, or user behaviour
• Any data from pages you visit

Local Storage

GitRevamp stores the following data locally on your device using chrome.storage.local. This data never leaves your browser:

• Your feature toggle preferences (which features are on or off)
• Your GitHub Personal Access Token, if you choose to provide one
• Cached API responses to reduce repeated network requests
• Any repositories you add to your bookmarks or watchlist

External API Calls

GitRevamp makes read-only requests to the following public APIs. No personal data is included in these requests — only the public repository owner and name:

• api.github.com — Fetches public repository metadata, contributor stats, and commit activity to calculate health scores
• api.codetabs.com — Fetches lines-of-code statistics for the current repository
• api.osv.dev — Checks for known CVEs in repository dependencies
• raw.githubusercontent.com — Reads public package.json files for dependency analysis
• registry.npmjs.org — Checks npm package metadata for staleness

GitHub Personal Access Token

If you choose to add a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) to increase your API rate limit, that token is stored only in chrome.storage.local on your own device. It is used solely to authenticate requests to api.github.com and is never transmitted to any other server or third party.

Notifications

GitRevamp may display browser notifications to alert you when a repository on your watchlist has a significant health score drop. These notifications are generated locally and do not involve any external server.

Third Parties

GitRevamp does not share, sell, or transfer any data to third parties. The extension has no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking of any kind.

Children's Privacy

GitRevamp does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under the age of 13.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a new date.
