The Monitope Chrome Extension ("the Extension") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information in the Extension.

The Extension is provided as part of the Monitope service. Please also review our Monitope Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

3. Data Transmission

The Extension only sends data to the following server:

• https://monitope.com - Official Monitope server

No data is sent to third-party servers.

4. Local Check Feature

When the local check feature is enabled, the Extension checks monitored page content within your browser.
