Last updated: August 1, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how SiteData ("we", "our", or "us"), whose product website is sitedata.dev, collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our browser extension. SiteData is a website analysis tool that helps users find website traffic information, keywords, Whois data, and perform reverse AdSense lookups to discover Publisher IDs. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in an open and transparent manner.

What SiteData Does

SiteData is a comprehensive website analysis extension that provides:

  • Website Traffic Analysis: Query and analyze website traffic statistics
  • Keyword Research: Discover keywords associated with websites
  • Whois Information: Access domain registration and ownership details
  • Reverse AdSense Lookup: Find websites associated with specific AdSense IDs
  • Publisher ID Discovery: Identify and analyze Publisher IDs across websites

Information We Collect

Website Analysis Data

When you use SiteData to analyze websites, we may process:

  • URLs of websites you analyze
  • Search queries you perform within the extension
  • AdSense IDs and Publisher IDs you lookup
  • Analysis results and cached data (stored locally)

Important: This data is processed to provide you with analysis results. We do not store or transmit your search history to our servers unless necessary for the specific analysis request.

Local Storage Data

SiteData operates without requiring user registration or login. Data stored locally in your browser includes:

  • Extension preferences and settings
  • Cached analysis results for faster access
  • Search history (stored locally only)
  • User interface preferences
  • Temporary session data

Analytics Data

To improve our services, we collect anonymous usage statistics:

  • Feature usage patterns (which tools are used most frequently)
  • Performance metrics (how fast analyses complete)
  • Error reports (to fix bugs and improve reliability)
  • General usage statistics (number of queries, session duration)

This data is aggregated and anonymized, and cannot be used to identify individual users or their specific searches.

Extension Permissions

SiteData requests the following browser permissions to function properly:

  • sidePanel: To display the SiteData interface in the browser's side panel
  • activeTab: To analyze the currently active website tab
  • scripting: To inject analysis scripts into web pages for data collection
  • storage: To save your preferences, settings, and cached analysis results
  • unlimitedStorage: To store large amounts of analysis data and cache results for better performance

These permissions are essential for SiteData's core functionality and are used solely to provide the website analysis services.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Perform website traffic analysis and provide accurate statistics
  • Conduct keyword research and display relevant results
  • Retrieve and display Whois information for domains
  • Perform reverse AdSense lookups and Publisher ID searches
  • Cache results locally for faster subsequent queries
  • Remember your preferences and settings
  • Analyze usage patterns and improve our services anonymously
  • Optimize performance and fix bugs

Data Storage and Security

Local Storage: Most of your data, including preferences, settings, and cached analysis results, are stored locally in your browser using the storage and unlimitedStorage permissions. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to sync it through your browser's built-in sync features.

Analysis Requests: When you perform website analysis, reverse AdSense lookups, or Whois queries, these requests may be sent to our servers or third-party data providers to retrieve the requested information. However, we do not permanently store your search queries or personal browsing patterns.

No User Accounts: We do not maintain user accounts or store personal information on our servers. All personalization is handled through local browser storage.

Data Security: Your locally stored data is protected by your browser's security measures and your device's access controls. Data transmitted for analysis requests is encrypted in transit using HTTPS.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. However, to provide our website analysis services, we may use:

  • Website Analysis APIs: Third-party services for traffic statistics, keyword data, and website information
  • Whois Databases: Public and commercial Whois data providers for domain information
  • AdSense Analytics: Services that provide AdSense ID and Publisher ID lookup capabilities
  • Analytics Providers: Anonymous usage statistics for extension improvement
  • Content Delivery Networks: For delivering extension updates and resources

These services process analysis requests but do not receive your personal information or browsing history. We encourage you to review their privacy policies for more information.

  • Analytics Opt-out: You can opt out of anonymous usage analytics through the extension settings
  • Selective Permissions: You can disable specific extension permissions through your browser's extension management settings

Data Retention

Local Data: Cached analysis results, preferences, and settings are retained locally until you clear them or uninstall the extension.

Analysis Requests: We do not retain logs of your specific analysis requests, search queries, or the websites you analyze beyond what is necessary to complete the immediate request.

Analytics Data: Anonymous usage statistics are retained for up to 24 months to help us improve the extension's performance and features.
