X Shield is built with a zero-data philosophy. We do not collect, store, or transmit any of your personal information. The extension operates entirely on your device.
None. X Shield does not collect any data whatsoever. There are no analytics, no tracking pixels, no cookies, and no telemetry of any kind.
X Shield makes zero network requests to external servers. The extension runs entirely locally in your browser using content scripts and the Chrome Storage API for saving your preferences on your device.
The only data stored is your extension preferences (such as which features are enabled or disabled). This data is saved locally on your device using the Chrome Storage API and is never transmitted anywhere.
X Shield does not integrate with or send data to any third-party services. There are no ads, no affiliate links, and no external dependencies that could track you.
X Shield requests only the minimum permissions necessary to function: access to x.com pages to apply visual modifications and storage to save your preferences locally.
If we ever update this policy, changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Given our zero-data approach, we don't anticipate significant changes.
If you have questions about this privacy policy, please reach out via our support page.
