Overview

X Spam DM Filter Pro ("we," "our," or "the Extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome extension collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our premium spam filtering service for X (formerly Twitter) direct messages.

Information We Collect

Data Stored Locally on Your Device

Our extension stores the following information locally on your device using Chrome's storage API:

• Custom spam filter keywords - Words and phrases you add to detect spam
• Whitelisted usernames - Trusted X/Twitter handles you want to bypass filtering
• Extension settings - Your preferences for filtering options (enable/disable toggles)
• Usage statistics - Count of spam messages blocked (daily and total counters)
• Premium license status - Whether you have purchased lifetime access

Data We Process

To provide spam filtering functionality, our extension processes:

• Message content - Text content of direct messages on X/Twitter to detect spam patterns
• User interactions - Your clicks and actions within the extension interface to manage filters and settings

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled entirely by our trusted payment partner ExtensionPay and Stripe:

• Payment data - Credit card information, billing details, and transaction data are processed securely by ExtensionPay/Stripe
• License verification - We only receive confirmation of your paid status from ExtensionPay
• No financial data storage - We never store or have access to your payment details

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information solely to:

• Filter spam direct messages based on your custom spam criteria
• Maintain your whitelist of trusted contacts
• Provide statistics on blocked spam messages
• Remember your filtering preferences and settings
• Verify your premium license status for feature access

Data Storage and Security

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not:

• Transfer your data to advertisers, marketers, or data brokers
• Use your data for purposes unrelated to spam filtering
• Access your message content for any purpose other than local spam detection
