Privacy Policy — My Pings

Last updated: August 2026 · Version 0.3.0

My Pings is a Chrome extension by AI4Context. It shows an on-demand list of alerts from sources you choose.

Data we process (on your device)

• Source URLs, titles, and types you add (RSS, GitHub, ICS, HN, Reddit, Gmail).
• Ping items fetched on refresh (title, link, dates, read state).
• UI language, priority keywords, and silence timers per source.
• GitHub personal access tokens, if you provide one (stored in chrome.storage.local).
• Gmail OAuth tokens managed by Chrome when you connect Gmail (metadata scope only).

Data fetched on refresh

• RSS/ICS: feed content from URLs you add.
• GitHub: public API for events you configure.
• Hacker News: Algolia HN API (public).
• Reddit: public JSON for subreddits you choose.
• Gmail: unread message metadata (from, subject, date) — no email body.

What we do not do

• We do not read your operating-system notification center.
• We do not monitor browsing in the background.
• We do not upload your sources or pings to AI4Context servers.
• We do not sell your data.

Permissions

• storage — local sources, pings, and preferences.
• identity — Gmail OAuth (only if you add Gmail).
• Optional host access — for origins you add (feeds, Reddit, HN, etc.).
• https://www.googleapis.com/* — Gmail API when connected.
