Chrome Extension Privacy Policy

This page describes how the CapRateCity Chrome extension handles data. It applies only to the extension. For the website's privacy policy, see /privacy.

Summary

• The extension is designed to run entirely in your browser.
• It does not collect personal information.
• It does not track your browsing history.
• It does not transmit listing prices, settings, or any data back to our servers.

What the Extension Reads

When you visit a supported real-estate listing page (such as listings on Zillow or Redfin), the extension reads property-related values displayed on that page — for example, listed price, listed rent if available, beds, baths, and similar public listing fields — so it can compute cap rate, cash flow, and related investment metrics directly on the page.

This reading happens entirely within your browser tab. The extension does not send listing data, page content, or your browsing activity to CapRateCity or to any third party.

What the Extension Stores

The extension may store your preferences locally on your device using Chrome's built-in extension storage API. Examples of stored preferences include default expense assumptions, target cap rate thresholds, and display options. This data remains on your device and is not synced to CapRateCity servers.

What the Extension Does Not Do

• It does not collect your name, email, address, or other personally identifiable information.
• It does not record which sites you visit.
• It does not transmit data to CapRateCity, Zillow, Redfin, or any third party.
• It does not include third-party analytics or advertising trackers inside the extension itself.
• It does not modify the underlying listing site content beyond overlaying our calculations.

Supported Listing Sites

The extension is designed to operate on real-estate listing pages such as those on Zillow and Redfin. Compatibility may change over time as those sites update their layouts. The extension does not run on unrelated sites.

Permissions

The extension requests the minimum browser permissions required to read listing-page content on supported sites and to store your preferences locally. Permissions are described on the Chrome Web Store listing and in the extension manifest.

Children

The extension is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect any data from children.

Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we ever change how the extension handles data in a material way, we will note the change in the extension's release notes.
