Privacy policy
Purix is a browser extension that removes tracking parameters from URLs. This page describes what data Purix handles and what it does with it. The short version: everything stays on your device, and nothing is ever sent anywhere.
- Purix makes zero network requests — no analytics, no telemetry, no remote configuration, no error reporting.
- It stores your settings, any custom rules you add, local usage counters, and a 30-day activity log (hostname and removed parameter names only, never the URL) in your browser's local storage.
- Nothing is ever transmitted, sold, or shared with anyone.
- You can export everything Purix has stored, or clear it, at any time from the options page.
Purix privacy policy
Purix does not collect, transmit, or share any user data. It makes zero network requests of any kind — no analytics, no telemetry, no remote configuration, no error reporting, nothing is ever sent off the device.
The only data Purix stores is:
- Your settings (on/off, per-site disable list, badge preference, debug logging preference)
- Any custom rules you add (the parameter name, whether it is a strip or a "never strip" rule, and the hostname you scoped it to, if any)
- Local usage counters (how many links/parameters have been cleaned, broken down by domain and by day)
- A recent activity log (hostname and the names of removed parameters — never the URL itself), kept for 30 days
This data lives exclusively in the browser's local extension storage
(storage.local) on your own device. It is never transmitted anywhere, never
sold, never shared with any third party. Uninstalling the extension deletes all of it.
Inside the options page, "Reset stats" clears the usage counters, and "Clear log" clears
the activity log, whose entries also expire on their own after 30 days; your settings and
custom rules stay until you change or remove them. You can export a copy of everything
Purix has stored at any time from the options page's "Export data JSON" button.
Purix's entire rule set (which URL parameters it removes) ships inside the extension itself and is only ever updated by installing a new version — it is never fetched from a server at runtime.
