Effective date: July 23, 2026
"Big Five (OCEAN) Personality Test" (the "Extension") is a Chrome side-panel extension that lets you take a 50-item personality assessment and view your results. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Extension handles, how it is stored, and what it is used for.
The Extension does not collect any personal information, and nothing you enter is sent to us, to the developer, or to any third party. Specifically:
To let you take the test, resume an in-progress session, and review past
results, the Extension stores the following data using the browser's
built-in chrome.storage.local API:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Your in-progress question answers | Lets you resume the test later without losing progress |
| Saved trait scores (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) and the date they were computed | Lets you view your result history over time |
This data is stored only on your local device, inside your Chrome browser profile. It is never transmitted over the network, never synced to any external server operated by us, and is not accessible to the developer. If you use Chrome's built-in bookmark/extension sync feature, this data may sync across your own devices via your Google account — that sync is handled entirely by Google/Chrome, not by us.
You can remove all stored data at any time by:
chrome://extensions → Details → "Clear data" (if available on your Chrome version).| Permission | Why it's needed |
|---|---|
storage | To save your answers and results locally on your device, as described above. |
sidePanel | To display the test and results inside Chrome's native side panel UI. |
The Extension requests no host permissions and cannot read or interact with the content of any website.
We do not share, sell, rent, or trade any data with third parties, because no data ever leaves your device in the first place.
The Extension is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children, since no data collection takes place at all.
If this Privacy Policy is updated, the revised version will be posted at this same location with a new effective date. Continued use of the Extension after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
