Overview

Accessibility Persona Lens is a browser extension that helps designers and developers understand accessibility barriers by simulating aspects of different conditions. This privacy policy explains how the extension handles your data.

The extension does not:
- Collect or transmit any personal information
- Track your browsing history

Local Storage

The extension uses Chrome's local storage API (chrome.storage.local) solely to remember your selected persona preference between browser sessions. This data:
- Is stored entirely on your device
- Never leaves your browser
- Contains only your persona selection (e.g., "Claudia enabled")
- Can be cleared at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing browser data

These permissions are used exclusively to provide the core functionality of the extension. No data accessed through these permissions is collected, stored externally, or shared.
