What Eclipsed stores
Everything below is kept locally, in Chrome's extension storage on your device:
- Your per-site choices (for example,
wikipedia.org: filterorfigma.com: off) - Slider settings — brightness, contrast, warmth and grayscale
- Your schedule settings, including any coordinates you typed in for sunset/sunrise mode. Eclipsed never requests location permission and cannot read your location — you type approximate coordinates yourself
- A cached copy of the per-site rules list
- Counters for the in-app "leave a tip" reminder cadence
All of this lives on your device. Uninstalling the extension deletes it.
Network requests — the complete list
Eclipsed makes exactly two kinds of network request:
- Rules list fetch (automatic, read-only). About every 6 hours the extension downloads a JSON file from our server (
eclipsed-rules.niallflorence1.workers.dev) saying which darkening engine works best on which website. This request sends no user data — no browsing history, no identifiers, nothing about you. It is how site fixes reach you without waiting for a store update. If it fails or you're offline, the extension keeps working from its cached or bundled copy. - Site report (only when you click it). If you use "Fix this site → Still wrong?" and press a report button, the extension sends: the site's domain name, which engine was active, the symptom you picked, and the extension and rules-list version numbers. Nothing else — no page content, no URL paths, no personal information. Reports are used solely to improve the per-site rules list and are deleted automatically after 60 days. Our server infrastructure (Cloudflare) processes your IP address transiently to rate-limit abuse of this endpoint; we do not store it in the report.
There are no other network requests. No analytics services, no error trackers, no advertising or affiliate calls.
What we never do
- No collection of browsing history
- No selling or sharing of any data with third parties
- No ads, and no affiliate links injected into pages
- No account, no sign-in, no emails
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this URL with an updated effective date, and the extension's changelog will note it.
