Thank you for choosing to use the GitHub PR Notifier Chrome Extension (referred to as "the Extension"). Your privacy is important to us. This privacy policy outlines the types of information we may collect and how it is used and protected.

1. Information We Collect - the Extension connects to your GitHub account to retrieve pull request (PR) data for a specific organization. Here's what we collect:
   • GitHub API Data: The Extension uses GitHub's public API to fetch information about pull requests for a specific organization. This data includes PR titles, authors, creation dates, statuses, and other metadata related to the PRs.
   • OAuth Token: When connecting your GitHub account, we request a GitHub access token (via OAuth) to authenticate and authorize the Extension. This token is stored locally in your browser and is used to interact with GitHub on your behalf.
   • Settings and Preferences: We store settings like the organization name, user filters, and notification preferences locally in your browser. This data is not transmitted to any external server.
2. How We Use Information - the data collected by the Extension is used solely for the following purposes:
   • To display open pull requests for the specified GitHub organization.
   • To provide notifications when new PRs are opened or updated.
   • To allow users to apply filters to customize which PRs are displayed.
3. How We Protect Your Information - we prioritize your privacy and take several measures to ensure your data is secure:
   • Local Storage: All data, including your GitHub access token and settings, is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to any external server.
   • Data Access:The Extension only accesses data necessary to fetch pull request information from GitHub, based on the permissions granted through the OAuth process.
   • Secure Communication: All communication with the GitHub API is done over HTTPS, ensuring that data transferred between the Extension and GitHub is encrypted and secure.
4. Sharing of Information - we do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to any external parties. All data processed by the Extension remains within your browser and is used exclusively for the purposes mentioned above.
5. Permissions - the Extension requests the following permissions:
   • GitHub API Access: To read pull request data from your organization’s repositories.
   • Notifications: To send browser notifications when new PRs are opened.
   • Storage: To save your preferences and settings locally in your browser.
6. Your Consent - by using the Extension, you consent to this privacy policy and the collection and use of information as described.
