Privacy Policy for Zerro Startpage

Zerro Startpage is committed to protecting user privacy. This extension operates with a strict "privacy-by-design" approach:

1. Data Collection: We do not collect, store, or transmit any of your personal data, browsing history, or keystrokes to any external servers owned by the developer.
2. Third-Party API Integrations: To provide core functionalities, the extension makes direct connections from your browser to third-party services:
3. Google Services (Calendar, Suggestions, Images, YouTube): Used solely to display your calendar events, search suggestions, and media content.
4. Unsplash API: Used to fetch background wallpapers.
5. Open-Meteo API: Used to fetch weather information based on your location/settings.
6. Spotify, Soundcloud, ZingMP3, Apple Music: Accessed via content scripts locally to provide media controls on your new tab page.
7. Data Storage: All user preferences, settings, and configuration data are stored locally on your device via the browser's native storage API and are never shared.
8. Permissions: The requested permissions (bookmarks, scripting, tabs, storage, and host_permissions) are strictly used to render the startpage widgets, manage tabs, and fetch data from the designated APIs listed above.

If you have any questions regarding this privacy policy, please contact the developer via the official repository support channel.
