SwaTrack - Privacy Policy & Legal Terms

🔒 1. Privacy Policy & Data Handling

SwaTrack was built with a fundamental commitment to user privacy. We adhere strictly to the Google Chrome Web Store Single Purpose Policy and the Limited Use Requirements.

Zero Personal Data Collection: SwaTrack does not collect, record, transmit, sell, rent, or monetize your name, email, browsing history, financial accounts, credit cards, or passwords.
Local-First Storage Architecture: By default, all tracked product URLs, target price thresholds, check frequencies, and price snapshots are stored exclusively on your local device within Chrome's sandboxed storage (chrome.storage.local / chrome.storage.sync).
No Telemetry or Third-Party Trackers: We do not embed Google Analytics, Mixpanel, advertising SDKs, tracking pixels, or behavioral cookies.
Notification Webhook Credentials: If you enter a Discord Webhook URL, Telegram Bot Token, or WhatsApp CallMeBot API key, these credentials remain encrypted in your local browser storage and are used strictly to dispatch automated notifications requested by you.

⚖️ 2. Terms of Service & "As-Is" Provision

By installing or using the SwaTrack Chrome extension, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please uninstall the extension immediately.

SwaTrack is provided on an "AS-IS" and "AS-AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Dynamic Price Volatility: Online merchants (including Amazon, Flipkart, flight aggregators, and airlines) alter prices dynamically via algorithmic pricing engines. SwaTrack is an informational tracking assistant; the final price displayed on the merchant's checkout page is always binding.
No Guarantee of Deal Availability: The developer makes no warranty that price tracking will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that price drop alerts will arrive before promotional inventory is depleted.
No Financial Advice: Nothing within SwaTrack constitutes financial, investment, or legal advice.

⚡ 3. Advanced Cloud Sync & Power User Disclaimer

SwaTrack provides an optional feature allowing users to input a custom remote backend URL (e.g., self-hosted Node.js servers, Render, Railway, or VPS instances).

⚠️ Strict Disclaimer of Responsibility for Cloud URL Settings:

The custom cloud sync setting is intended exclusively for advanced, power users who elect to self-host their own infrastructure. The developer of SwaTrack has no control over, and assumes zero responsibility or liability for:

Any crashes, downtime, or service interruptions of your external cloud servers.
Hosting charges, API bandwidth fees, or cloud server billing incurred by the user.
IP blocking, CAPTCHAs, or rate-limiting enforced by target websites against your remote server IP.
Data corruption, network transit failures, or security breaches occurring on self-hosted servers or user-managed endpoints.

Users choose to enable and configure custom backend endpoints entirely at their own discretion and sole risk.

🏷️ 4. Merchant Non-Affiliation & Fair Use Notice

SwaTrack is an independent, open utility. It is not affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with:

Amazon.com, Inc. or Amazon Seller Services Pvt. Ltd.
Flipkart Internet Private Limited or Walmart Inc.
MakeMyTrip Limited, Cleartrip, Google Flights, Skyscanner, or any airline.
Discord Inc., Telegram FZ-LLC, or Meta Platforms / WhatsApp LLC.

All product names, logos, brands, and registered trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners. Mention of merchant names or logos is strictly for descriptive, identification, and nominative fair-use purposes under applicable trademark law.

🛡️ 5. Limitation of Liability & Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the developer, authors, or contributors of SwaTrack be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages (including, but not limited to, loss of profits, missed discounts, price errors, data loss, merchant account suspensions, or service interruptions) however caused and on any theory of liability, whether in contract, strict liability, or tort (including negligence or otherwise) arising in any way out of the use of or inability to use this software.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the developer from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses arising out of your use of the extension or any violation of third-party merchant terms of service.
