Data Collection

Web Archive Explorer is designed with privacy in mind and collects only the minimum data necessary for its core functionality:

• URLs: We process the URLs of webpages you choose to archive
• Website Content: Basic website information needed for archive verification
• Location Data: IP addresses as part of the URLs being archived

Data Usage

The collected data is used solely for:

• Submitting pages to archive services (Wayback Machine and Archive.is)
• Checking if pages are already archived
• Providing archive status information

Data Storage

• User preferences (such as theme settings and enabled services) are stored locally on your device
• No personal data is stored on our servers

Third-Party Services

This extension interacts with the following third-party services:

• Internet Archive's Wayback Machine (archive.org)
• Archive.is (archive.today, archive.ph)

These services may have their own privacy policies and data collection practices.
