AEGIS GUARD Privacy Policy
AEGIS GUARD analyzes URL structure and removes user-selected tracking parameters inside the browser. It does not send inspected URLs or browsing activity to Powered by Aegis or any third party.
Information collection
AEGIS GUARD does not collect, transmit, sell, rent, or share personal information or user data. It does not use analytics, advertising, telemetry, accounts, remote servers, or remote code.
URL processing
When a user opens the extension, uses its keyboard shortcut, submits a URL, or selects its context-menu command, GUARD processes that URL locally to identify visible structural signals. These can include the scheme, hostname, Punycode, embedded credentials, redirect parameters, file extensions, and known tracking parameters.
GUARD does not visit the destination during analysis and does not claim that a low score guarantees a harmless website.
Local storage
The extension can save preferences, custom tracking-parameter names, local allow and block lists, and a limited recent-inspection history in Chrome extension storage. Users can disable history, clear it independently, reset all extension data, or remove it by uninstalling the extension.
Permissions
activeTab allows GUARD to inspect the current tab only after the user invokes the extension or shortcut. contextMenus provides the explicit Inspect with AEGIS GUARD command. storage keeps local preferences and optional history.
AEGIS GUARD does not request broad website access, browsing history, cookies, downloads, or network-request interception.
Third parties
AEGIS GUARD does not transfer data to third parties and does not use third-party SDKs or services.
Extension and website
The extension and the Powered by Aegis website are separate systems. The public product website may use website analytics as described in the main Aegis privacy policy, but this GUARD privacy-policy route is excluded from Aegis product analytics.
Security limitations
GUARD provides local URL-level risk signals and user-controlled cleaning. It is not antivirus software, a remote reputation service, or a substitute for browser Safe Browsing, operating-system security, or careful judgment.
Changes
If the extension's data practices change, this policy and the browser-store disclosures will be updated before the changed version is released.
