Extension Name: Translate to German or English
Effective Date: 2025-04-18

1. Overview

This extension provides a convenient way to translate selected text on a web page into either German or English, depending on the source language. It uses a backend translation service to process the request.

2. Information Collected

This extension does not collect any personal information or identifiable data from users.

The only data transmitted is:

• The selected text that the user chooses to translate
  
  

This text is sent to a private backend API owned by the developer in order to obtain the translation.

3. How We Use the Data

The selected text is:

• Temporarily processed to provide a translation
  
  

• Not stored, logged, or shared with third parties
  
  

• Not used for analytics or advertising
  
  

4. Third-Party Services

The extension uses backend services that may internally rely on third-party translation APIs (such as DeepL or Google Translate). These services are called server-side, and no credentials or direct access is exposed to the user.

5. Security

All communication between the extension and the backend is encrypted via HTTPS. No secrets or personal data are stored in the extension or in the browser.

7. Changes to this Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on the extension’s Web Store page or at the developer's public repository.
