Privacy Policy for Skipper

Effective date: October 2, 2026

Skipper is a Chrome extension that works as a local playback helper for YouTube pages.

Data collection

Skipper does not collect personal data.

Skipper does not collect browsing history, search history, account information, payment information, location, personal communications, or website content.

Local storage

Skipper stores only one local preference in the browser: whether the helper is turned ON or OFF.

This setting remains on the user's device and is not sent to us or to any third party.

Network requests

Skipper does not send data to a backend server.

Skipper does not use analytics inside the extension.

Skipper does not sell, share, or transfer user data.

Permissions

The extension uses the permissions needed to show a popup, control its ON/OFF state on the active YouTube tab, and run its playback helper on YouTube pages.

Third parties

Skipper does not transfer user data to third parties.

No warranties

Skipper is provided as a pet project without warranties. It is not affiliated with YouTube and does not guarantee that YouTube will not show warnings, limit access, or apply other account-related measures.
