Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 22, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how SWYoon Labs ("I", "me", or "this blog") handles information when you visit swyoonlabs.blogspot.com or use any of the Chrome extensions listed on this blog. By using this blog or my extensions, you agree to the practices described below.
What this blog collects
Information you provide directly
- Comments: If you leave a comment on a post, your name and the text you submit are stored by Blogger.
- Contact messages: If you email me, I receive your email address and message content.
Information collected automatically
This blog is hosted on Google Blogger, which may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- Your IP address
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- Date and time of visit
- Pages visited and referring URLs
I do not run my own analytics, tracking scripts, or third-party trackers on this blog beyond what the Blogger platform itself uses.
Cookies
Blogger and its third-party partners may use cookies and similar technologies to store and access information on your device. Cookies are small text files that allow a site to remember your actions and preferences over time.
Third-party cookies
The following third-party services may use cookies if they are active on this blog:
| Service | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdSense | To display ads and measure ad performance | Google LLC |
| Google Analytics (if enabled) | To understand site traffic | Google LLC |
| Blogger comment system | To remember comment author details | Google LLC |
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. For more information, see Google's privacy policy and AboutCookies.org.
Google AdSense
If this blog is approved for Google AdSense, Google may use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You may also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
Third-party vendors and ad networks used by Google AdSense are required to disclose their data practices. See Google's advertising privacy policy for details.
Chrome extensions
The Chrome extensions featured on this blog (Simple Side Note, Phrase Hero, Side Panel Clock) each have their own privacy practices. A summary is below; full details are in each extension's repository.
| Extension | Data collected | Where stored | Shared with third parties |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simple Side Note | Your notes and settings only | chrome.storage.local (on your device) |
No |
| Phrase Hero | Your quiz progress and settings | chrome.storage.local (on your device) |
No |
| Side Panel Clock | Your clock settings and timer state | chrome.storage.local (on your device) |
No |
Key points:
- All extensions store data locally on your device using
chrome.storage.local. - No extension sends your data to any server. There is no backend, no database, and no cloud sync.
- No extension uses analytics, crash reporting, or advertising SDKs.
- Permissions requested by each extension are used solely for the extension's core features. See each extension's documentation for a permission-by-permission explanation.
The source code for every extension is public on GitHub, so these claims are independently verifiable.
Third-party links
This blog may contain links to external sites that are not operated by me, including:
- The Chrome Web Store
- GitHub
- Official documentation sites (Google, MDN, etc.)
I am not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. I recommend reviewing their privacy policies separately.
Children's privacy
This blog and my extensions are not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). I do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to me, please contact me so I can take appropriate action.
Your rights
Depending on your location (e.g., under the EU GDPR, UK GDPR, or CCPA), you may have rights regarding your personal data, including:
- The right to access the personal data I hold about you
- The right to request correction or deletion
- The right to object to certain processing
- The right to withdraw consent at any time
Because this blog does not operate its own data collection system, most data held about you will be controlled by Google (Blogger) or your own browser. For data held by Google, see the Google Privacy & Terms page.
For extension data: all of it is stored locally on your device. You can delete everything at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing extension storage in chrome://extensions.
Data retention
- Blog comments are retained by Blogger until you or I delete them.
- Contact emails are retained only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry, unless legally required to be kept longer.
- Extension data is retained on your device until you delete it. It is automatically removed when you uninstall the extension.
Changes to this policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When I do, I will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For significant changes, I may also publish a blog post notifying readers.
Contact
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, you can reach me through the Contact page.
