Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 4, 2025

Introduction

ScreenAwake ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our ScreenAwake services, including our web application and browser extension.

Information We Collect

Both our web application and browser extension operate locally on your device to keep your screen awake. We do not store or collect any personal information or screen activity data on our servers. All processing happens entirely on your device.

Web Application

Our web service runs entirely in your browser without storing any personal data on our servers.

Browser Extension

Our browser extension uses local storage only to save your preferences (such as whether the screen wake feature is enabled or disabled). This allows the extension to remember your settings between browser sessions. No personal data is collected or transmitted to our servers.

Usage Data

We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our service, including:

• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Pages visited on our website
• Time and date of your visit
• General usage patterns (without personal identification)

Cookies

We use essential cookies to ensure the basic functionality of our website. These cookies do not collect any personal information and are necessary for the service to function properly.

Browser Extension Permissions

Our browser extension requires specific permissions to function properly:

• Storage Permission: Used to save your preferences (such as whether the screen wake feature is enabled or disabled) locally in your browser. This allows the extension to remember your settings between browser sessions. No personal data is collected or transmitted.
• Offscreen Permission: Required to create an invisible background document that can request a wake lock to prevent the screen from going to sleep. This is necessary because the wake lock API can only be called from a visible document context, so we use an offscreen document to maintain the wake lock functionality.

Distribution Channels

ScreenAwake is available through multiple channels:

• Web Application: Directly accessible through our website
• Browser Extension: Available through official browser extension stores (such as Chrome Web Store) and follows their respective privacy and security guidelines

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services for analytics and website functionality. These services may collect anonymous usage data according to their own privacy policies. We carefully select partners who share our commitment to privacy protection.

Data Security

Your screen activity is managed locally in your browser and never transmitted to our servers. We implement appropriate security measures to protect any information we do collect, including secure connections and regular security updates.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal data, there's no personal information to access, modify, or delete. However, you can:

• Clear your browser cookies and local storage
• Disable JavaScript to prevent any data collection
• Contact us with any privacy concerns

Children's Privacy

Our service does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you believe a child has accessed our service, please contact us immediately.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new policy on this page with an updated date.
