Wikipedia to Grokipedia ("the Extension") is a browser extension that provides alternative perspectives on Wikipedia articles by redirecting to or linking to Grokipedia.com. This privacy policy explains how the Extension handles user data.
The Extension does NOT collect, store, transmit, or share any personal user data.
The Extension only stores user preferences locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in storage system. These preferences include:
Storage Permission: Used to save your extension preferences locally in your browser. Settings sync across your devices through Chrome's sync service if you have Chrome sync enabled.
Host Permissions (*://*.wikipedia.org/*): Required to access Wikipedia pages for URL redirection and to display banner notifications. The Extension only accesses Wikipedia.org domains and does not access any other websites.
DeclarativeNetRequest Permissions: Used to automatically redirect Wikipedia URLs to Grokipedia URLs when auto-redirect mode is enabled.
Scripting Permission: Used to inject content scripts into Wikipedia pages to display banner notifications or floating action buttons.
The Extension redirects users to Grokipedia.com and may link to Buy Me a Coffee for donations. These are external websites with their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party sites.
The Extension does not share, sell, or transmit any data to third parties. No analytics, tracking, or data collection services are used.
All user preferences are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's secure storage system. No data is transmitted over the internet except for the redirect to Grokipedia.com (which is the core functionality of the Extension).
The Extension does not knowingly collect any information from children. Since no data is collected, this Extension is safe for users of all ages.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us through the Chrome Web Store listing or via the extension's support channels.
By using the Wikipedia to Grokipedia Extension, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
