Random Memes Extension

Last updated: April 2, 2025

Introduction

Thank you for using the Random Memes Chrome extension. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle your information when you use our extension.

Information We Collect

The Random Memes extension is designed with privacy in mind. We collect and store:

  • Local Storage Only: All data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage API. We do not transmit any personal data to our servers.
  • Meme History: We temporarily store a history of previously viewed memes in your browser's local storage to provide the history feature and offline functionality.
  • User Preferences: Settings such as dark mode preference and NSFW filter status are stored locally on your device.

How We Use Information

The information we collect is used solely to improve your experience with the extension:

  • To provide a history of previously viewed memes
  • To remember your preferences for dark mode and content filtering
  • To enable offline functionality when you don't have an internet connection

We do not use your data for advertising or share it with third parties.

Data Storage

All data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's storage API. We do not store any information on external servers. Your meme history and preferences never leave your browser.

Browser Permissions

The Random Memes extension requests the following permissions:

  • Storage: To save your preferences and meme history locally on your device.
  • clipboardWrite: To allow copying meme URLs to your clipboard when you use the copy feature.

Third-Party API Usage

This extension uses the Meme API (https://meme-api.com) to fetch random memes from Reddit. When you use this extension:

  • Your browser sends requests to the Meme API to fetch meme content.
  • We do not send any personally identifiable information to the API.
  • Standard HTTP information (such as your IP address) may be logged by the API's servers according to their own privacy policy.
  • Content displayed is sourced from Reddit and may be subject to Reddit's terms of service and privacy policy.

Content Disclaimer

This extension displays memes from Reddit which are fetched through the Meme API. While we provide NSFW filtering options, we cannot guarantee that all content will be appropriate for all users. Users are responsible for enabling appropriate content filters.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics on our website only, not in the extension itself. The extension does not collect usage statistics or analytics data.

Children's Privacy

Our extension is not directed at children under the age of 13. Due to the nature of meme content, parental guidance is advised. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your Rights and Choices

Since all data is processed locally on your device, you maintain complete control over your information. You can:

  • Clear meme history through the extension's interface
  • Use Chrome's built-in tools to clear local storage data
  • Enable or disable content filters as desired
  • Uninstall the extension to remove all associated data

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the extension.
