Information stored on your device
Drain stores the website hostnames you choose for automatic activation, your enabled or disabled preferences, and optional hostname-level usage totals in the browser extension's local storage.
Usage totals may include activation counts, bypass counts, and foreground-visible time while a configured website is drained or temporarily bypassed. Drain does not create a general browsing-history log.
Information Drain does not collect
Drain does not record or transmit page paths, queries, titles, page text, form values, messages, cookies, or browsing outside configured sites.
Drain has no analytics, telemetry, advertising, behavioral profiling, account, payment, synchronization, or remote-configuration service. It does not sell or monetize browsing data. All executable code, styles, fonts, and icons are packaged with the extension.
How browser permissions are used
- activeTab identifies the current website when you choose automatic activation from the toolbar.
- scripting applies Drain's packaged grayscale behavior to a selected website.
- Optional website access is requested one main site at a time and includes that site's subdomains so common redirects continue to work.
- storage keeps settings and optional usage totals on the device.
Removing an automatic target also asks the browser to remove the website access Drain requested for it.
Your controls
You can pause statistics or permanently clear usage history in Settings. Uninstalling Drain removes extension-managed local data according to the browser's extension-data behavior.
Version 0.6.0 and future changes
Version 0.6.0 does not offer Pro features or payments. An installation updated from a development preview may retain inactive preview configuration locally so an update does not destroy user-created settings; the free release does not activate, synchronize, or transmit that data.
Any future release that introduces payments, accounts, synchronization, or other data transmission will update this policy and the store disclosures before that functionality is released.
