EarthTime

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 31 May 2026

The short version: EarthTime collects nothing, sends nothing, and makes no network requests at all. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads, and no trackers. Your settings stay on your own device.

What we collect

Nothing. EarthTime does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no trackers, and no third-party data sharing of any kind.

Data stored on your device

Your preferences — the cities on your clock strip, any family pins you drop, and whether you last used the flat map or the 3D globe — are saved locally in your own browser using the standard localStorage API. This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or anyone else. You can clear it at any time by removing the extension or clearing the extension's storage.

Network requests

None. EarthTime makes no network requests of any kind. The Earth imagery it displays — a daytime "Blue Marble" map and a night-time city-lights map, both public-domain NASA imagery — is packaged inside the extension and loaded locally. Nothing is ever fetched from, or sent to, any server.

Permissions

EarthTime requests no permissions at all — no host access, no special capabilities, and no access to any website. It simply opens its own page when you click the toolbar icon.

Children's privacy

EarthTime is a general-audience utility and does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will change and the new version will be posted at this URL.
