What data Readably stores and where

Readably stores two types of data, in two different places.

Synced preferences — stored via chrome.storage.sync

When you turn a feature on or off, change your font, tint, column width, or any other preference, Readably saves those settings to Chrome's sync storage. This means your preferences follow you across devices automatically if you are signed into Chrome. Google handles the syncing infrastructure; their privacy policy applies to that transfer. Readably itself never sends your preferences to its own servers.

This includes: feature toggles, font choice, colour tint, column width, typography and alignment settings, disabled features, corner style, default section, and licence key.

Device-only data — stored via chrome.storage.local

Some data never leaves your device. This includes your per-site accessibility profiles, your blocked sites list, and any quick notes you write. This data is stored locally in your browser and is not synced or transmitted anywhere.

Payments

Premium subscriptions are processed by Paddle, our payment provider and merchant of record. When you purchase a subscription, Paddle collects and processes your name, email address, billing address, and payment details, and handles applicable sales tax and VAT on our behalf. Readably does not store or have access to your card information. Paddle's privacy policy governs how they handle your payment data.

Your licence key is stored locally in your browser via chrome.storage.sync so it syncs across your devices.

Analytics and error reporting

Readably does not currently use any analytics tools or error reporting services. We may introduce these in the future to understand how the extension is used and to fix bugs faster. If we do, we will update this policy before doing so and, where required by law, ask for your consent.

The landing page

The Readably website (this page) does not currently use cookies, tracking pixels, or analytics scripts. If that changes, this policy will be updated accordingly.

Your rights under GDPR

If you are based in the European Union or EEA, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to or restrict how we process your data
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

Because most data in Readably is stored locally in your browser, you can delete it at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing Chrome's extension storage. For anything related to payment data, contact Paddle directly.

For any other requests, write to us at myrto@notallbad.com.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Readably evolves. When we make meaningful changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review it occasionally.
