CapsCue — Privacy Policy

The short version

CapsCue does not collect, transmit, sell, or store any of your personal data anywhere. It has no server, no analytics, no account, and makes no network requests. Everything the extension does happens locally, inside your own browser.

What CapsCue does

CapsCue shows a small on-screen alert when Caps Lock is on while you are typing in a text field — any text field, not just passwords — so you notice before you finish typing in all caps.

Data we collect

None. CapsCue never reads, logs, or transmits the text you type. It only checks the keyboard's Caps Lock state (via the standard getModifierState('CapsLock') browser API) and whether the currently focused element is a text field — it does not read, store, or process the content of what you type.

What is stored, and where

CapsCue saves a small set of preferences using Chrome's chrome.storage.local API, which keeps data only on your own device:

• Whether the extension is enabled or paused
• Your chosen alert style (next to the field, or in the screen corner)
• The list of sites (hostnames only, e.g. example.com) where you've chosen to turn the alert off

None of this ever leaves your browser. It is not synced to any account, not sent to any server, and not accessible to us or anyone else.

Permissions we request, and why

• storage  Used to save the preferences listed above with chrome.storage.local, entirely on your device.
• activeTab  Used only at the moment you open the popup, to read the current tab's hostname so the popup can show a "Disable here" button for that specific site. CapsCue does not use this to read page content, browsing history, or any other tab.
• Content script on all sites  CapsCue needs to run on the pages you visit to detect Caps Lock while a text field is focused and to draw the alert next to it. This is a static script declared in the extension's manifest — it does not phone home, and it does not read or transmit page content anywhere.

Remote code

CapsCue loads no remote or externally hosted code of any kind. It contains no eval(), no dynamically fetched scripts, and makes no network requests at all. Every line of code that runs is packaged inside the extension you installed and reviewed by the Chrome Web Store.

Data sharing

We do not sell user data. We do not use data for purposes unrelated to CapsCue's single purpose (showing a Caps Lock alert). We do not use data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes. There is simply no data collected to share in the first place.

Children's privacy

CapsCue does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect information at all.

Changes to this policy

If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be posted at this same URL with a new "last updated" date.
