1. Introduction

Welcome to We Don't Say That. We built this application to provide families with a safe, filterable YouTube viewing experience. We fundamentally believe in your privacy, especially regarding services utilized by children. This Privacy Policy explicitly outlines that we do not collect, sell, or monitor your personal data.

2. Data Collection & Usage

We do not collect or store persistent personal data on our servers.

Local Storage: Your "Watch Again" history and custom word lists are saved strictly locally on your own physical device using localStorage. This data never leaves your computer.

Authentication Data: If you create an account to upgrade to Unlimited, we utilize Clerk to securely manage your session. We only access the minimum necessary "Authentication Information" (a secure token) to verify your subscription status.

Security & Rate Limiting: To protect our servers against abuse and to enforce the daily 20-video limit for non-subscribers, our firewall temporarily processes your IP address. This is not used to track you or build a profile; it is strictly a momentary numeric counter that resets daily.

Telemetry: To provide community-wide filtering, we may anonymously log the YouTube Video IDs that are played and the count of words muted. This data is entirely decoupled from your personal identity.

3. Chrome Extension Disclosure

The We Don't Say That Chrome Extension requires specific "Host Permissions" for youtube.com and wedontsaythat.net.

These permissions are utilized exclusively to interact with the native YouTube player and to fetch our secure profanity timing data from our servers. The extension reads your wedontsaythat.net session cookie for the sole purpose of verifying your "Unlimited" pass status. We do not track your browsing history or collect off-site data.

4. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Protecting the privacy of young children is our highest priority. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately for removal.

5. User Rights & Data Deletion

You have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal information associated with your account. You can manage your account and request full data deletion at any time via your Account Profile or by contacting us.

6. Third-Party Services

YouTube: By using this service, you are also bound by the Google Privacy Policy and YouTube Terms of Service.

Advertising: We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
