Privacy Policy for "IsThisPhish" Chrome Extension
Last Updated: 27-07-2025
1. Overview
The "IsThisPhish" Chrome Extension is designed to protect users from phishing websites by analyzing visited URLs and blocking suspicious or confirmed phishing sites. This privacy policy explains what data we collect, how it's used, and how your privacy is protected.
2. Collected Data
- Visited URLs: When a user navigates to a new web page, the extension captures the page's URL and sends it to our secure backend server for phishing analysis.
- Random Session ID: A randomly generated session identifier is stored locally to help group interactions within the same session. This ID is anonymous and not tied to any personal identity.
- Local Whitelist Settings: The extension stores your custom domain whitelist locally on your device.
3. What We Do NOT Collect
- No personal information such as name, email address, passwords, or browsing content.
- Random Session IDNo full browsing history — only the currently active tab's URL is analyzed in real time
- No tracking or profiling of users.
4. How We Use Collected Data
- To determine whether a visited website is safe or potentially phishing.
- To provide a blocking page when a phishing site is detected.
- To respect the user's local whitelist preferences (domains they trust).
We do not share, sell, or use your data for any other purpose beyond phishing protection.
5. Data Storage and Security
- URL data is transmitted securely to our server via HTTPS.
- Session IDs are stored only in the browser's session storage and are reset between browsing sessions.
- No persistent personal data is stored or collected on our servers.
- All prediction requests and feedback are anonymized.
6. Third Parties
All phishing detection logic is handled by our own backend system. Third-party services like analytics may be use only in our server and not integrated in extension.
7. User Control
- You may manage your local whitelist anytime via the extension's options page.
- You may disable or remove the extension at any time through your browser settings.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
