Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2025-11-24
CheckUpOrDown ("we", "us", "our") provides the Website Status Checker Chrome extension ("Extension"), which allows users to check and monitor the status of websites. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices.
Information We Collect
1. User-Provided Data
Monitored URLs are stored only on your device. If cloud backup is added in the future, URLs may be stored on our servers only when you opt in.
2. Automatically Collected Data
The Extension sends direct HTTP(S) requests from your browser to the URLs you add. We do not collect response contents. Anonymous diagnostics may be collected only if you enable them.
3. Third-Party Services
Any third-party analytics or crash reporting services used in the future will be listed on our site.
How We Use Information
- To provide site status checking
- To display availability and response information
- To improve the Extension through optional diagnostics
- To respond to support requests at [email protected]
Data Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell or share your information except when required for optional cloud backup, legal compliance, or protection of rights.
Data Retention
Your monitored URLs stay on your device unless deleted. Cloud-stored data (if enabled) can be deleted upon request.
Security
We use reasonable measures to protect stored data. Avoid adding sensitive URLs.
User Choices
- Delete monitored URLs anytime
- Disable optional analytics (if available)
- Request deletion of cloud-stored data
