Scrollar for Chrome: Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 11, 2026

Scrollar for Chrome helps you practice English before opening websites you choose to lock. This policy applies to the Chrome extension, separately from the Scrollar iPhone app.

Information handled on your device

The extension stores your selected website domains, settings, unlock deadlines, daily free-pass use, current quiz, quiz results, review history, daily totals, and streak information in Chrome’s local extension storage. It uses these details only to provide website blocking, timed unlocks, English practice, and progress tracking.

For websites you select and allow, Scrollar handles navigation URLs to show its lock screen, return you to the original page, and relock already-open tabs when time expires. The original URL can appear in the lock-screen tab’s address fragment. It is not added to Scrollar’s stored learning history. Chrome itself may retain normal browsing or session history under your browser settings.

No transmission to Scrollar

The extension does not send your selected domains, navigation URLs, quiz results, or learning progress to us or to third parties. It has no account system, analytics, advertising, tracking services, remote code, or backend. Questions, notes, translations, and interface assets are bundled with the extension. It does not read website page contents, passwords, cookies, or Chrome’s browsing-history database.

Permissions

Scrollar can offer access to any domain you enter, but adding a site requests permission for that domain rather than automatically granting access to every website.

Retention and your controls

Local data remains in the Chrome profile until you change it, reset learning progress, remove selected sites, or uninstall the extension. Reset progress clears learning totals, streaks, current quiz, and review history while keeping selected sites and settings. Removing a site removes its stored selection and associated access permission. Uninstalling removes the extension’s local storage. Chrome or device backups and browser session history are controlled by your own browser and device settings.

Sharing and limited use

We do not sell, transfer, or share extension user data. Data is used only for the extension’s stated learning and website-locking features, never for advertising, creditworthiness, or unrelated purposes. Scrollar’s use of information follows the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

Support and this website

If you email support, you choose which information to include. Your email provider and ours handle that communication. This policy website is hosted on GitHub Pages; visiting it is subject to that provider’s normal hosting practices. The extension does not automatically contact this website.
