Privacy First

Privacy policy built for a debugging tool.

UAF Debugger Pro is designed to inspect ad-related elements on the active page and help developers enable a temporary debug cookie. It is not built to collect personal information, track users, or send ad or browsing data to external servers.

At a glance

No personal data sale or remote database The extension does not sell personal information or maintain a remote database of user activity.
Local browser actions only It reads the active page to find supported ad units and banner wrappers.
Cookie control for debugging It can create or remove the `uadrefresh_debug` cookie on the current site.
Optional public IP display The popup can request the public IP address from a public IP lookup service and show it locally.

Information We Access

The extension only accesses information necessary to operate its debugging features on the active browser tab. This includes page elements related to ad units, banner wrappers, ad request timing available from the browser Performance API, and the `uadrefresh_debug` cookie used for testing UAF behavior.

How This Information Is Used

To detect supported ad units and banner wrappers on the current page.
To show whether ad units appear to be duplicated, refreshed, or requested more than once.
To scan the active page for banners at the user-configured interval when Realtime check is enabled.
To let the user enable or disable the `uadrefresh_debug` cookie for debugging purposes.
To copy ad unit IDs, banner IDs, or the displayed public IP address to the clipboard when the user clicks a copy button.
To scroll to and visually highlight selected banner elements when the user clicks the Goto button in the extension popup.
To display the expiration time of the debug cookie in the extension interface.

Chrome Permissions

storage: Saves extension preferences, such as Realtime check status and scan interval, inside Chrome storage.
cookies: Creates, reads, and removes the `uadrefresh_debug` cookie for the current site when requested by the user.
activeTab and scripting: Injects the content script into the active tab so the extension can inspect supported ad units and banner wrappers.
alarms: Schedules optional realtime banner checks at the interval configured by the user. This permission does not collect, transmit, or store personal data.
host permissions for HTTPS pages: Allows the extension to operate on supported HTTPS pages where the user opens the popup.

Storage and Security

Any small amount of state used by the extension, such as cookie expiration metadata, stays inside the browser through Chrome extension storage. Realtime scan settings and the latest banner scan result for a tab may also be stored locally in Chrome storage. The tool is intended to support internal debugging workflows and does not maintain a remote database of user activity.

Policy Updates

If the extension behavior changes in a way that affects privacy, this page should be updated to reflect the new functionality before release. Users should review this policy periodically for the latest version.
