Privacy Policy

WhatsApp Label to Background (whatsapp-label-to-background)

Last updated: February 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how the browser extension "WhatsApp Label to Background" ("the Extension") handles information. The Extension is designed with privacy in mind and does not collect, store, or transmit your personal data.

1. Data collection

The Extension does not collect, store, or transmit:

Personal information (name, email, phone number)
WhatsApp messages, contacts, or account data
Browsing history outside of web.whatsapp.com
Any analytics, usage data, or identifiers

2. What the Extension does

The Extension runs only when you are on web.whatsapp.com. It:

Finds chat rows that have a label (the small colored tag)
Reads the label color already shown on the page
Applies a light background in that color to the same chat row

All of this happens locally in your browser. No data is sent to our servers or any third party.

3. Permissions

The Extension uses only the access needed to work on WhatsApp Web (host permission for web.whatsapp.com). It does not request access to your tabs, history, or other sites.

4. Third parties

The Extension does not integrate with third-party services for tracking or analytics. It does not load or run remote code.

5. Changes to this policy

If this Privacy Policy is updated, the "Last updated" date at the top will be changed. Continued use of the Extension after changes means you accept the updated policy.

6. Contact

For questions about this Privacy Policy or the Extension, you can contact the developer via HesDev.
