1 Information We Collect
Monochromate does not collect or store personal data. However, the extension stores certain preferences locally on your device to improve functionality.
Data Stored Locally:
- Greyscale intensity settings
- Excluded websites list (to disable grayscale on selected sites)
This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to external servers.

The locally stored data is used only to personalize your experience within the extension. Monochromate does not track, share, or sell any user data.
Your privacy is our priority. We believe that browser extensions should enhance your experience without compromising your personal data.
3 Permissions Required
Monochromate requests certain browser permissions to function properly:
"Read and change all your data on websites you visit"
This is necessary to apply the grayscale filter to web pages. Without this permission, the extension wouldn't be able to modify the visual appearance of websites.
"Storage access"
To save your filter settings and excluded websites list locally. This ensures your preferences persist between browser sessions.
Monochromate does not monitor your browsing activity or collect any personal data. We use the minimum permissions necessary to provide functionality.
4 Third-Party Services
Monochromate does not integrate with third-party services, trackers, or analytics tools. Your browsing data remains private.
5 Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page, and continued use of the extension constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
