Tanod Text Pair Diff: privacy
The extension compares two selected or pasted texts on your device. It makes no network calls and collects, uploads, sells or shares no user data. No accounts, analytics, advertising, tracking or remote code.
Text stays on your device
Chrome supplies selected text only when you choose “Set as left text” or “Compare with left text”. The extension does not read other page content, page addresses or browsing history.
The left selection and unclaimed comparisons live only in extension service-worker memory. They expire within 60 seconds while that worker runs, are checked again before use, and disappear sooner if Chrome stops it. A comparison consumes its left selection; a comparison page receives a pair only once. At most eight pairs await delivery. Text is never placed in a URL.
Editor text and results stay in the open comparison page until Clear, reload or close. Clear also forgets pending selections in the worker. The extension uses no persistent or synced storage. It cannot delete copies you make elsewhere.
Permission and limited use
The context-menu permission adds the two selection actions. No host, tab-reading, scripting, storage or clipboard permission is requested. Information is used only for the comparison you request, in accordance with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Optional external website
A labelled link opens Tanod’s separate paid PDF/DOCX comparison API website. Clicking it sends no selection, editor text or referrer from the extension. Your browser connects to that website only after you click. Any documents you later choose to submit there are handled under that service’s terms and privacy policy, not by this extension.
