TextGauge Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 22, 2026

Introduction

TextGauge is a Chrome extension that helps users analyze text by counting words, characters, characters without spaces, sentences, lines, paragraphs, estimated reading time, and average word length. Your privacy is important to us, and this policy explains how the extension handles your information.

Information We Collect

TextGauge does not collect, transmit, or store your text on our servers. Text entered or pasted into the extension is processed locally in your browser to calculate text statistics. We do not collect personally identifiable information, browsing history, or personal information through the extension.

How Your Text Is Used

Your text is used only to provide the extension's core features, including word counting, character counting, sentence and paragraph counting, reading-time estimation, and average word-length calculation. Text is not used for advertising, profiling, or analytics.

Clipboard Access

When you use the copy feature, TextGauge copies the requested text to your clipboard. When you use the paste feature, text is read from the clipboard following your action. Clipboard content is used only to perform the requested action and is not sent to our servers.

Data Storage and Sharing

TextGauge does not send your text to external servers, sell user data, or share it with third parties. Text entered in the extension is processed locally and is not intentionally saved by the extension after use.

Third-Party Services

TextGauge does not use third-party analytics or advertising services to collect information through the extension. This statement does not cover third-party services you may visit independently.

Data Security

Because text analysis is performed locally in your browser and text is not transmitted to our servers, TextGauge does not maintain a server-side database of your text. Please keep your browser and device secure.

Children's Privacy

TextGauge is a general-purpose text utility and is not designed to collect personal information from children or other users.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy if the extension's features or privacy practices change. Any revised policy will be published on this page with an updated revision date.
