1. Introduction
Yellow Tools (“we,” “our,” or “the extension”) is a Chrome extension that helps you extract business data from Yellow Pages websites (yellowpages.com and yellowpages.ca). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use Yellow Tools.
- Account information (optional): If you sign in with Google, we receive your email address and name from Google. This is used solely for authentication and subscription management.
- Export preferences: Your chosen export fields (e.g., name, phone, email) are stored locally in your browser.
The extension stores the following data on your device using Chrome’s local storage:
- Account data: Email, name, and last login (if you sign in).
- Subscription data: Subscription status, plan type, and related identifiers for Pro subscription management.
- Settings: Export filters and export count.
- Scraped data: Extracted business data is processed locally on your device and exported to files you choose. We do not receive or store this data on our servers.
We use your information to:
- Provide the extension: Enable scraping, export, and related features.
- Authenticate you: Verify your identity when you sign in with Google.
- Manage subscriptions: Confirm your subscription status and handle Pro features.
- Improve the extension: Analyze errors and performance (e.g., via Sentry) to fix bugs and improve stability.

- Backend: When you sign in or use Pro features, we send your email and subscription-related data to our backend (hosted on Google Cloud) to verify your identity and manage your subscription.
