Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy outlines how RankingsFactor (“we”, “our”, or “us”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information through our website (rankingsfactor.com) and Chrome Extension.

1. Information We Collect

A. Website & Extension Sign-Up

We collect personal information you provide during sign-up or login, including:

  • Full name
  • Email address
  • Google account profile (only if you choose Google login)

B. What the Extension Does NOT Collect

We do not collect your personal browsing history, the contents of websites you visit, or any page data without your action.

The extension runs content scripts on webpages to perform SEO-related actions **only when initiated by you** and does not transmit site data to our servers without interaction.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data to:

  • Create and manage your user account
  • Authenticate you via Google or email
  • Send you occasional product updates (only if opted-in)
  • Improve the performance of our tools and services

3. Cookies & Local Storage

Our website uses cookies to manage sessions and enhance usability. The extension may use Chrome's local storage to save user preferences, but it does not use tracking cookies or third-party scripts.

4. Data Security

We take data security seriously. Information is transmitted via HTTPS and securely stored. Authentication and authorization flows adhere to Google OAuth security standards.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We may share necessary data with service providers (such as for authentication and email delivery) only to operate the platform securely and efficiently.

6. Permissions

The RankingsFactor Chrome Extension requests limited permissions including tabs and webNavigation. These are used to:

  • Identify the active tab when the extension is used
  • Allow SEO analysis tools to activate only when you interact with them

While scripts are injected into webpages, no personal site content or usage data is collected automatically. Your browsing behavior is not tracked or stored by us.

7. User Rights

You may request to:

  • Access your personal data
  • Update or delete your data
  • Unsubscribe from emails
  • Delete your account entirely

8. Compliance With Chrome Web Store Policy
