Privacy Policy — Simple FAQ

Last updated: 11 May 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the Simple FAQ Chrome browser extension (“the Extension”, “we”, “our”) handles your information.

The Extension is published under the name ClickPopMe. ClickPopMe is a publishing handle and is not a registered company or trading name.

1. Summary

Simple FAQ is a free, local-only utility. It gives small teams a private answer bank inside Chrome — save your own customer replies, company FAQs, internal processes, and policies, then search and copy them with one click. Entries can be added directly in the Extension or imported from a CSV file you supply. All data stays on your device. We do not collect, transmit, sell, or share any personal information. We do not use analytics, advertising, tracking, or remote servers of any kind.

If you want a one-line summary: the Extension never sends your data anywhere.

2. What information the Extension handles

The Extension only handles content that you actively create or import. Specifically, when you save an answer, the Extension stores the following on your own device:

The title (the question or label).
The answer / description text.
The category name you assign (optional).
Any tags you assign (optional).
The internal notes field (optional, staff-only context — never copied with the answer).
A favourite flag if you mark the entry.
A randomly generated identifier (UUID) used internally to look the entry up.
Timestamps recording when the entry was created, last updated, and most recently used or copied.

The Extension also stores a small set of preferences (theme — light, dark, or system; layout density — comfortable or compact) so it remembers how you like it displayed.

The Extension does not access, collect, or process:

Your name, email address, phone number, or any other personally identifying information.
Your browsing history, open tabs, cookies, bookmarks, passwords, or form data.
The contents of any web page you visit.
Your IP address, device identifiers, or location.
Health, financial, authentication, or personal communications data.

3. Where your data is stored

All data created or imported through the Extension is stored locally on your own device using your browser’s built-in localStorage mechanism, scoped to the Extension. This data:

Never leaves your computer.
Is not transmitted to the publisher, to Google, or to any third party.
Is not synchronised across devices through Chrome Sync or any other service.
Is accessible only to you and to other software running under your user account on that device.

If you uninstall the Extension, clear browsing data for the Extension, or use Chrome’s “Remove site data” tools, the stored entries will be permanently deleted. The Extension provides an Export CSV feature so you can back up your own data at any time.

4. Permissions explained

The Extension declares no permissions in its manifest.json file. It uses only the default capabilities granted to extension pages:

Toolbar action — to open the Extension’s interface in a new tab when you click its icon.
chrome.tabs.create for the Extension’s own URL — used by the service worker only to open the Extension’s bundled index.html page when the toolbar icon is clicked. No other tab is read or modified.

The Extension does not request access to:

Your browsing activity or any website’s content.
Your tabs’ contents, history, downloads, cookies, or storage.
Your microphone, camera, location, or clipboard.

5. Network and third-party services

The Extension makes no network requests. It does not contact any server, API, analytics provider, advertising network, content delivery network, or remote logging service. It contains no third-party tracking SDKs.

All scripts, styles, and assets used by the Extension are bundled into the Extension package at the time of submission to the Chrome Web Store. There are no remote scripts, remote stylesheets, remote fonts, or runtime code loading.

CSV files you choose to import are read entirely on your local device using the browser’s standard FileReader API. The contents are parsed locally and stored in your browser’s localStorage. No part of an imported CSV file is transmitted off your device.

6. Cookies and tracking

The Extension does not set, read, or use cookies. It does not use web beacons, fingerprinting, session identifiers, or any other tracking mechanism.

We do not sell, rent, share, transfer, or disclose your information to any third party for any purpose, because the Extension does not collect any of your information in the first place. We have no servers, no databases, and no user accounts.

8. Your control over your data

You have full control over your data at all times:

View — open the Extension to see all your entries.
Search and filter — filter by category, tag, or free-text search.
Edit — open any entry and update its title, answer, category, or tags.
Delete a single entry — use the delete action on any entry tile.
Export everything — Settings → Export CSV downloads a complete backup as a UTF-8 CSV file.
Import from CSV — Settings → Import CSV replaces all current entries with the contents of a CSV file you supply.
Delete all data — uninstall the Extension, or clear the Extension’s site data via Chrome’s settings (chrome://settings/content/all).

Because no data is ever sent to us, there is no separate request you need to make to delete information from any server.

9. Children’s privacy

The Extension is not directed at children under 13. It does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children.

10. Security

Your entries are stored in your browser’s localStorage under your operating system user profile. Their security depends on the security of your device and your Chrome profile. You should keep your computer and browser up to date and avoid storing confidential information that other users of the same device account could view.

The Extension only treats your CSV imports and entered text as data. It does not render, execute, or evaluate any of that content as code.

11. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in an updated version of the Extension, with a new “Last updated” date at the top of this document. Continued use of the Extension after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

12. Compliance

The Extension is designed to comply with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies, including the User Data Policy and Limited Use requirements. Because the Extension does not collect or transmit user data, no data sale, advertising use, or model training use occurs.
