Privacy Policy

clocksimulator.com is a minimalist analog clock Chrome extension that replaces your new tab page. We do not run ads, we do not use analytics, and we do not sell personal data.

Summary

• No trackers / analytics: The extension does not use third-party analytics scripts, tracking pixels, or advertising beacons.
• No accounts: There is no login and no user profile.
• No network requests: The extension operates entirely offline. It makes no outbound network requests and does not communicate with any remote server.
• Optional local storage: If you choose to enable Save settings, your preferences are stored locally in your browser's storage for the extension's New Tab page.

What information we collect

We do not collect any personal information. The extension has no backend, no server, and no mechanism to transmit data anywhere. All data stays on your device.

Local device storage (optional)

The extension includes an opt-in toggle Save settings (About menu). If you enable it, your preferences are stored locally on your device using the New Tab page's localStorage under this key:

• clocksimulator-user-settings

Stored fields:

• theme ("dark" or "light")
• wakeLock (true or false)
• secondModeTick (true or false)

Opting out / removing saved settings

• Turn off Save settings to remove the saved item from storage.
• You can also clear the extension's site data in Chrome's settings under Privacy and security → Site settings.

Permissions

The extension declares only the chrome_url_overrides permission to replace the New Tab page. No additional Chrome permissions (such as browsing history, tabs, or network access) are requested.

Open source verification

The extension is open source. You can verify the behavior described above in:

• index.html — UI and localStorage usage
• clock.js — clock logic
