🔒 Privacy Commitment

🛡️ Information Collection & Usage
- Zero Data Collection: The extension does not collect, record, transmit, or share personal information, browsing history, user identifiers, or analytics.

chrome.storageAPI exclusively to save your custom skip duration setting (e.g., 5 seconds, 10 seconds) locally in your browser. - No External Servers: The extension makes no external network requests and operates completely offline within YouTube pages.
🔑 Permissions Rationale
- storage: Used strictly to store user preferences locally on your browser.
