Privacy Policy

InboxHero ("we", "us", or "our") is a Chrome extension that helps users clean and organize their Gmail inbox. This Privacy Policy explains what information InboxHero accesses, how it is used, and what we do not do.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. InboxHero is designed to operate with the minimum permissions necessary and with full transparency about data handling.

InboxHero uses the Gmail API provided by Google. To function, the extension requests the following Gmail permissions:

• Read access to message metadata — InboxHero reads sender information and message counts to display them to you. It does not read the body or subject of your emails.
• Modify access to messages — InboxHero moves selected emails to Gmail Trash when you choose to clean them. This is only done upon your explicit action.

• Does not read, scan, or store the content of your emails.
• Does not send your data to any external server or third party.
• Does not permanently delete emails. Emails you clean are moved to Gmail Trash, where they remain for 30 days before Gmail removes them automatically unless you restore them.
• Does not create an account or require sign-up.
• Does not track your usage or behavior for advertising.
• Does not share any data with other products, companies, or individuals.

InboxHero does not operate any backend server. No email data, metadata, or account information is stored outside of your device.

Any temporary data required to operate the extension (such as session tokens from Google OAuth) is handled locally in your browser in accordance with Chrome extension storage APIs and Google's own security standards.

InboxHero uses Google's OAuth 2.0 flow to authenticate with your Gmail account. By granting access, you allow InboxHero to perform actions described in Section 2 on your behalf.

You can revoke InboxHero's access to your Google account at any time by visiting Google Account Permissions.

InboxHero's use of Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

InboxHero is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through our extension, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Continued use of InboxHero after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
