Privacy Policy

Introduction

The Channel CQI browser extension (“the extension”) provides users with trust and quality insights for YouTube videos and channels. The extension displays Content Quality Index (CQI) scores by analyzing publicly available YouTube metadata and retrieving CQI results from our server.

We respect your privacy. This extension does not collect, store, sell, or share any personal information about users.

Information We Do NOT Collect

The extension does not collect, transmit, or store any of the following data:

  • Personally identifiable information (name, email, address, age, etc.)

  • Financial or payment information

  • Health information

  • Personal communications

  • Browsing history

  • Keyboard input, mouse movement, or user activity

  • Location data

  • Uploaded content (text, images, videos, audio)

The extension also does not track your behavior or monitor your activity across websites.

Data the Extension Accesses

The extension accesses publicly available YouTube page data only, including:

  • The YouTube video ID

  • The YouTube channel ID

This data is required to fetch the correct CQI score for the content being viewed.
This information is never linked to you personally, and it is not stored.

Authentication

If you choose to log in as a verified reviewer, authentication is handled by Auth0, a secure third-party identity service.
The extension does not collect passwords, personal identifiers, or account details.

Auth0 may provide an access token that simply confirms your login state.
This token is not stored by the extension and is not used to identify you personally.

How Data Is Used

Public YouTube IDs are sent to our server to:

  • Retrieve the corresponding CQI score

  • Display rating information in the extension popup

No user data is transmitted, and no profiling or analytics are performed on users.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, share, or disclose user data to any third parties.
We do not use or transfer data for advertising, marketing, or unrelated purposes.

Security

All communication with our API occurs over HTTPS.
No personal data is transmitted or stored.
