Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information BotGentz collects, how it is used, and what choices you have. It covers both the BotGentz website and store (botgentz.com) and the BotGentz browser extension.
1. What BotGentz Is
BotGentz is a userscript manager: a browser extension that runs small scripts ("apps") you write yourself or install from the BotGentz store, on the specific websites you choose. The store (botgentz.com) is where you can browse, purchase, or subscribe to apps built by us or by other creators.
2. Information Collected by the Website and Store
Account information
If you create an account, we collect the information you provide, such as your name and email address. This is used to identify your account, deliver purchases, and communicate with you about your orders or subscriptions.
Payment information
Payments are processed by PayPal. We do not receive or store your full card number or PayPal login credentials. We do receive transaction confirmations (such as amount, date, and a transaction ID) and subscription status, which we use to activate and manage the apps you've purchased.
Purchase and subscription records
We keep a record of which apps you have purchased or subscribed to, and the status of each subscription, so that the extension can verify your entitlement to install and continue using those apps.
3. Information Collected by the Extension
| Data | Where it lives | Sent to our servers? |
|---|---|---|
| Scripts you write or paste yourself | Stored locally in your browser only | No |
| Script enabled/disabled state, match patterns, edit history | Stored locally in your browser only | No |
| Per-script data a script saves via its own storage functions (e.g. a script remembering a setting) | Stored locally in your browser only | No |
| Install token or subscription key, used only when installing a purchased/subscribed app or checking that a subscription is still active | Sent to our servers to verify entitlement | Yes — this is the only data the extension itself transmits to us |
| Current active tab's URL (used only to show which installed scripts match the page you're on) | Read locally to match scripts | No |
The extension does not collect or transmit your browsing history, page content, keystrokes, mouse activity, personal communications, location, health information, or financial information. It does not monitor tabs other than the one you are actively viewing.
A note on scripts you install from the store
Some apps in the BotGentz store may, as part of their own stated function, request data from the page you're on (for example, a form-filler script reading a form on the page you're using it on). That data is handled by the individual script exactly as described in that app's listing, and does not pass through BotGentz's own servers unless the specific app's description says otherwise. We encourage you to review what an app does before installing it.
4. How We Use Information
- To create and maintain your account
- To process purchases and manage subscriptions
- To verify that an app you are installing or using is one you have paid for
- To provide customer support
- To send you service-related communications, such as purchase receipts or subscription renewal notices
- To maintain the security and integrity of the store and extension
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with:
- PayPal, to process payments
- Hosting and infrastructure providers, solely to operate the website and store
- Law enforcement or other parties, only where required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of BotGentz, our users, or others
We do not use or transfer any user data for purposes unrelated to operating the BotGentz store and extension, and we do not use user data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.
6. Data Retention
We retain account and purchase records for as long as your account is active, and as needed to comply with legal, tax, or accounting obligations. You can request deletion of your account as described below.
7. Your Choices
- Export or back up your scripts at any time from the extension's Backup & Import page.
- Delete a script at any time from the extension's dashboard — this removes it from your browser immediately.
- Request account deletion by contacting us at the email below. We will delete your account information and purchase records except where we are required to retain them by law.
8. Children's Privacy
BotGentz is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the relevant minimum age in your region). If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of BotGentz after a change means you accept the updated policy.
11. Contact Us
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to [email protected].
