Privacy Policy — Niche Tracker for YouTube

Last updated: 2026-11-09

This extension shows the views-to-subscribers ratio of YouTube videos so you can spot outlier videos. This page explains what data it handles.

What the extension reads

• YouTube page content shown on youtube.com: video titles, channel names, view counts, upload dates and the search terms in the page address. This also includes the data YouTube itself sends to the page to display those videos.
• Public channel information from YouTube: subscriber counts and a channel's public video list, requested from youtube.com in your own browser session.

The extension runs only on https://www.youtube.com/*. It does not read any other site.

Where the data is kept

• The list of analysed videos (used for the in-page table and the "Download CSV" button) and your filter choices are saved in your browser's local storage for youtube.com.
• Two on/off settings (sort searches by views; open channel outliers automatically) are saved with chrome.storage.sync, which Chrome may sync across your own signed-in browsers.

Use "Clear" in the Outliers panel, or remove the extension, to delete the stored list.

What is shared

Nothing. The extension does not send any data to the developer or to any third party. It has no analytics, no ads and no remote code. The only network requests it makes go to YouTube itself: youtube.com, and i.ytimg.com for video thumbnails.

Limited Use

The use of information received by this extension will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Data is used only to provide the extension's single purpose, is never sold, and is never used for advertising or creditworthiness.
