Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 17, 2026
1. Overview
QueueTube ("the Extension") is a Chrome browser extension that allows users to build and manage a personal YouTube watch queue. This Privacy Policy explains what data the Extension accesses, how it is used, and how it is stored.
2. Data We Collect
The Extension does not collect any personally identifiable information. The only data stored by the Extension is:
- YouTube video URLs added to the queue by the user
- YouTube video titles as displayed on the page
- Queue order and playback preferences (e.g. Auto Play on/off)
This data is provided voluntarily by the user and is stored exclusively in chrome.storage.local — local to the user's browser.
3. How Data Is Used
The data listed above is used solely to:
- Display the queue list in the Extension popup
- Navigate the browser to the next video in the queue
- Persist the queue state across browser sessions
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, rent, or transfer any user data to third parties. No data is transmitted to any external server, analytics service, or third-party API.
5. Permissions Explained
- storage — Saves your queue locally using
chrome.storage.local. - tabs — Navigates the playback tab to the next video in your queue.
- activeTab — Identifies which tab is currently playing a video to track queue state.
- Host permission (*://*.youtube.com/*) — Injects the "Add to Queue" button on YouTube pages and reads the video title and URL from the page.
6. Data Retention
Queue data persists locally until the user clears the queue, removes individual items, or uninstalls the Extension. Uninstalling the Extension removes all locally stored data.
7. Children's Privacy
The Extension does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13.
8. Changes to This Policy
If this Privacy Policy changes, the updated version will be published at this URL with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
