Privacy Policy
Post-Purchase Guardian · Last updated November 11, 2026
Post-Purchase Guardian helps you track return deadlines for purchases shown on supported Amazon.com order pages. This policy explains what the extension reads, where it stores information, and when information is sent to another service.
Information the extension handles
Only after you choose Scan Amazon, the extension reads order-page content needed for its features. This can include Amazon order IDs, order dates and links; product names, product links, image URLs, seller names and quantities when shown; and return-deadline text displayed on the page. It also stores return status, dates you confirm or edit, reminder state, and your reminder and notification settings.
Local storage and use
Order and product records, confirmed deadlines, settings, and reminder state are stored in Chrome local extension storage in your browser profile. The extension uses this information to show your return list, calculate reminder schedule dates from deadlines, and display notifications you enable. The extension does not send order records to Post-Purchase Guardian's developer, operate an account or cloud service, or use analytics or advertising trackers.
The extension does not read Amazon cookies, passwords, or credentials, and it does not call Amazon order APIs. It does not submit a return or save a Google Calendar event for you.
When information leaves the extension
- Amazon: When you view an order or product, the browser opens the Amazon URL associated with it. Product images may be requested directly by your browser from Amazon's image servers when they are displayed.
- Google Calendar: If you choose Add to Google Calendar, the extension opens a prefilled Google Calendar page. The link includes the product name, Amazon order date, return deadline, and Amazon order URL so Google can populate the draft. Google then handles that request under its own privacy terms. You review and save the event yourself.
- Desktop notifications: If enabled, Chrome displays the product name and return deadline in a notification on your device. People who can see your device's notifications may see that information.
These actions are initiated by your use of the extension. No order data is sent to the developer or to an analytics or advertising service.
Retention and deletion
Your records remain in Chrome local storage until you use Clear all data in Settings or remove the extension or its browser profile. The extension does not keep a separate copy on a developer server.
Changes to this policy
If the extension's data practices change, this policy and the extension's disclosures will be updated before those changes are introduced.
