Privacy Policy
This privacy policy will help you understand what information we collect and use at Octotree, and the choices you have associated with that information. When we refer to “Octotree,” “we,” “our,” or “us” in this policy, we are referring to the Octotree website at https://www.octotree.io (the “Site”) and Octotree browser extension (the “Extension”) and the developers of these software (the “Developers”).

Effective date: February 20, 2021
Information we collect and how we use it
We collect information from you as part of certain features provided by the Extension and Site, such as when you create an Octotree account, authenticate via GitHub or use the bookmark feature. Stripe, our payment provider, may collect additional information from you to process payment. We may use the contact information you input, such as name and email, to send you support information, product and service announcements, and other business communications, and to service our Site.

The Extension does not and will never use Google Analytics or any third-party tracking software. The Site currently does not, but may use Google Analytics and/or third-party tracking software in the future to collect website traffic data that help us improve our service.

When using the Extension, GitHub personal access tokens and/or GitHub OAuth tokens might be needed to access private repositories. These tokens are stored in the browser's storage area. On Safari, these tokens are stored in the browser's local storage. The Extension uses these tokens to authenticate the requests with GitHub (https://github.com). We don’t transmit or store GitHub tokens on our servers. You must take necessary safeguard to ensure your GitHub tokens are secure.
