SocialFocus helps users stay focused by managing access to distracting websites and enabling modifications to web pages to reduce distractions. We are dedicated to protecting your privacy and ensuring that all processes occur securely within the extension itself.

Permissions Required
To provide its functionality, SocialFocus requires the following permissions:
▪ Access website source code via the activeTab permission.
▪ Access to specific domains to enable managing time limits and modifying web pages, including:
youtube.com
facebook.com
linkedin.com
twitter.com
x.com
reddit.com
instagram.com
google.com
twitch.tv
news.ycombinator.com

These permissions are strictly used to apply the extension’s features locally on your device.

Data Collection
SocialFocus does not collect, transmit, or store personal data externally.

The extension processes the following information locally on the user’s device:
1. Time Tracking (Optional):
If enabled, the extension tracks and calculates time spent on specific websites based on user-defined limits. This data is stored and processed locally and is not shared externally.
2. Browser Information:
- Language Settings: Used to display the extension in the user’s preferred language.
- Device Type (e.g., laptop or mobile): Used to provide device-specific options and improve usability.
3. User Settings:
The extension stores locally all settings configured by the user, such as website preferences, time limits, and other customization options.

User Control
Users have full control over the extension settings, including configuring time limits (optional), managing website permissions, and adjusting language preferences.

Detectability by Websites
The SocialFocus extension modifies web pages to reduce distractions by injecting CSS and JavaScript via the browser's extension system. While these modifications are designed to operate seamlessly, it is possible that certain websites may detect the presence of the extension through its actions, such as injected styles or scripts.

Updates to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy as needed. Any changes will be posted here with an updated effective date.
