1. Introduction
No Cookie Popups ("we," "us," or "our") operates the No Cookie Popups browser extension (the "Extension") and the website at www.nocookiepop.com (the "Website"). This Privacy Policy explains what information is involved when you use the Extension and the Website, how it is handled, and the rights you have over it.
The Extension is a Firefox add-on that automatically dismisses and hides cookie consent banners as you browse. It is built to keep you in control of your own data. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at support@nocookiepop.com.
2. Information We Collect
The Extension is designed to work without collecting your browsing history or personal information. Specifically:
- Your site preferences (stored on your device): The Extension saves a list of sites where you have turned banner hiding off, along with a setting that records your data consent choice. This information is stored locally in your browser and is used only to apply your preferences. It is not transmitted to us.
- Browsing content: The Extension reads and modifies the pages you visit only in order to detect and hide cookie consent banners. This processing happens locally in your browser. We do not receive, store, or transmit the content of the pages you visit.
- Website information: When you visit the Website, standard technical information such as browser type and general usage patterns may be processed to keep the site running and to understand how visitors find the Extension.
What we do not collect: We do not collect your name, address, payment information, or the personal content of the pages you browse.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To operate the Extension and apply your per-site preferences.
- To maintain, secure, and improve the Extension and Website.
- To understand how users discover and install the Extension.
Legal basis under GDPR: Where the GDPR applies, we process information on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating and improving the Extension and Website, and, where required, on the basis of your consent.
4. Cookies and Tracking
The Extension stores your preferences and data consent choice using your browser's local storage and, for the consent choice, a cookie associated with our product domain. These are used only to remember your settings and choices.
The Website may use cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality and to understand how visitors find the Extension. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so will not prevent the Extension from hiding cookie banners.
5. We Do Not Sell Your Personal Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. In accordance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), we confirm that we have not sold and will not sell the personal information of our users.
6. Data Retention
Your site preferences and consent choice remain on your device for as long as the Extension is installed. You can clear them at any time by removing sites from your list, clearing your browser data, or uninstalling the Extension. To request deletion of any data we may hold in connection with the Website, contact us at support@nocookiepop.com.
7. Your Rights
GDPR (European users)
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the right to:
- Access the information we hold about you
- Request correction (rectification) of inaccurate information
- Request erasure of your information
- Restrict how your information is processed
- Data portability
- Object to processing based on legitimate interest
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@nocookiepop.com. This is also the contact point for any data protection matters; a Data Protection Officer is not required for a service of this scope.
CCPA (California users)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- Know what personal information is collected about you
- Request deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of the sale of personal information — note that we do not sell personal information
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
8. Third-Party Services
- Mozilla Add-ons (AMO): The Extension is distributed through the Firefox Add-ons marketplace, which is operated by Mozilla and governed by Mozilla's own privacy policy.
- Consent-service blocking: To hide cookie banners, the Extension can block network requests to known cookie-consent service endpoints. This prevents those services from loading; it does not send your data anywhere.
- Search preference: The Extension includes an optional search preference that Firefox offers through its own native prompt at install time. This choice is made entirely within Firefox and is under your control.
9. Children's Privacy
The Extension and Website are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date. Your continued use of the Extension or Website after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
