Privacy policy
The short version: we collect nothing. The extension shows a tip on your new tab and sends nothing back.
Last updated: July 5, 2026
What we collect
Nothing. The extension has no telemetry, no analytics, no tracking, and no third-party scripts. It sends no data back to us — there is no server to send it to.
What stays on your device
The extension stores your stack preferences, a rotation counter, and a cached tip pool in Chrome's local extension storage. A per-tab tip pin lives in session storage and is cleared when the browser closes. None of this ever leaves your device, and uninstalling the extension deletes all of it.
Network requests
The extension makes exactly one kind of network request: fetching the public tips JSON from cdn.jsdelivr.net. Like any CDN, jsDelivr sees the standard connection metadata (your IP address) required to serve the file — see the jsDelivr privacy policy. If the CDN is unreachable, the extension falls back to a bundled offline copy and makes no request at all.
Permissions, justified
storage — to keep your preferences and tip rotation on your device. tabs — used only for chrome.tabs.getCurrent(), so a refreshed tab shows the same tip instead of skipping ahead. Host access is limited to cdn.jsdelivr.net. No activeTab, no browsing-history access, no content scripts on any website.
This website
dailydevtip.dev is a static site. No cookies, no analytics, no tracking pixels, no third-party fonts or scripts.
Contributor attribution
Tips are contributed through public GitHub pull requests. The GitHub handle a contributor puts in their tip's frontmatter is published in the tips dataset and shown on the author card — that attribution is the point of the project. It is public information the contributor submitted, governed by GitHub's own terms.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes, the change lands as a public commit in the open-source repository — the history is auditable. Questions: open an issue on GitHub.
Everything above is verifiable: the extension and this site are open source at github.com/hnooz/daily-dev-tips. jsDelivr's privacy policy is at jsdelivr.com/terms/privacy-policy.
