TAVRIXEL Translator Privacy Policy

Effective date: 8 November 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the TAVRIXEL Translator Chrome extension handles information when you use its text-translation feature.

1. Information the extension handles

When you choose to translate text, the extension handles:

• The text that you type or paste into the source text box.
• The source-language selection (or automatic language detection setting).
• The target language you select.

The text you submit may contain personal or sensitive information if you choose to include it. Do not submit information you do not want processed by the translation service.

2. How information is used

The extension uses the text and language selections only to request a translation and display the returned translation to you. The extension does not use the submitted text for advertising, profiling, or selling data.

3. Transmission and third-party processing

When you click the Translate button after accepting the in-extension disclosure, the extension sends the submitted text and language parameters over an HTTPS connection to Google's translation web endpoint at translate.googleapis.com. This third-party service processes the request and returns translated text.

The extension's current implementation uses a Google Translate web endpoint rather than a separately authenticated Google Cloud Translation API integration. The endpoint or its availability may change. Google may process request data, including network and technical information, under Google's own applicable terms and privacy practices. TAVRIXEL does not control Google's systems, logging, or retention practices. Please review Google's Privacy Policy before submitting information you consider sensitive.

4. Storage and retention

• The extension saves only your disclosure-acceptance choice (accepted or not accepted) locally in Chrome storage on your device so you do not need to confirm every time. It does not save submitted text or translations to its own storage, a database, or a TAVRIXEL server.
• The extension does not maintain a translation history.
• Text remains in the popup fields while the popup is open and is discarded when the popup is closed, subject to normal browser behavior.
• The extension does not control how long Google or its service providers retain or process a translation request. Refer to Google's policies for details about third-party handling.

5. Sharing

TAVRIXEL does not sell, rent, or independently share submitted text with advertisers or data brokers. The text and language parameters are transmitted to Google because this third-party service is required by the current translation implementation. The extension does not send translation text to any other third-party service.

6. Permissions and technical data

The extension requests the Chrome storage permission to remember your disclosure-acceptance choice locally on your device, and host access to https://translate.googleapis.com/* so it can make translation requests. It does not request browsing-history, tabs, or identity permissions. The browser and network may process ordinary connection information as part of making an HTTPS request.

7. Security

Translation requests are sent using HTTPS. The extension does not operate a TAVRIXEL server that stores submitted text. No method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and third-party processing is subject to the third party's safeguards and policies.

8. Your choices and deletion

• You can untick the disclosure checkbox to withdraw the saved acceptance; the extension will then require you to accept again before translating.
• You can avoid sending text by not using the Translate function.
• You can clear text from the input and output fields using the extension's controls.
• You can close the popup to clear its in-memory fields.
• Because TAVRIXEL does not retain a copy of translation requests, it cannot delete data held by Google. Requests concerning data processed by Google must be directed to Google using its privacy resources.

9. Children's privacy

TAVRIXEL Translator is a general-purpose translation tool and is not designed specifically for children. Users should not submit children's personal information unless they have the authority and a lawful basis to do so.

10. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated if the extension's data practices or features change. The effective date at the top will be revised when an updated policy is published. Material changes will also be reflected in the extension's disclosure where appropriate.
