This Privacy Policy explains how webective.com ("we", "our", "us") collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you use our browser extension ("Service"). By registering for an account and using our Service, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy. If you disagree with any part of this policy, you should not use our Service.
When you use our extension, we may collect and store the following types of information:
We use the collected information to:
We store IP addresses as part of our legitimate interest to secure the Service, detect misuse, and support investigative actions if needed. This data is never used for profiling, advertising, or sold to third parties.
Nature of Data: The URLs you save may include sensitive information such as personal identifiers, financial details, authentication tokens, or confidential documents.
User Responsibility: You are responsible for ensuring that no sensitive information (e.g., health records, financial details, etc.) is saved through our Service. We do not intentionally collect or store sensitive personal data through our Service, but if you choose to save such data, it is at your own risk. By using the Service, you acknowledge that you understand the risks of saving sensitive information in URLs. We strongly recommend that you avoid saving URLs that contain sensitive personal or confidential data.
Nature of Shared Data: When you share a layout, the URLs included in that layout may be shared with others. Users cannot see the list of tabs before restoring a layout. If you receive an unexpected layout, be cautious and do not restore it if you have any concerns.
User Responsibility: You are responsible for reviewing the URLs before sharing to ensure no sensitive, illegal, or harmful information is included unintentionally. You are solely responsible for the content of the URLs you share, and we disclaim any responsibility for any unintended disclosure, misuse, or harm resulting from shared content.
Explicit Consent: By using the sharing functionality, you explicitly consent to the sharing of the URLs you select. We do not moderate or inspect the content of shared layouts.
Nature of Data Collection: When you invite others to use our extension, we collect their email address to send the invitation.
No Third-Party Services: We do not use third-party services to process or send invitations.
Retention: We retain the recipient's email address indefinitely to prevent multiple invitations being sent to the same email address. If the recipient requests deletion of their email address, we will promptly remove it.
User Responsibility: By inviting others to use our extension, you are responsible for ensuring that the email address provided is accurate and that the recipient has consented to being invited.
Your Rights: Recipients can request the deletion of their email address at any time by contacting us at info@webective.com. Upon receiving such a request, we will delete the email address as soon as possible.
We implement a variety of security measures to protect your information:
However, you acknowledge that no system can be fully secure. We are not liable for any unauthorized access, data breaches, or other security incidents unless the breach is a result of our own negligence or failure to comply with applicable data protection laws. While we strive to protect your data, the security of data stored on third-party servers is outside of our control, and we cannot be held responsible for security issues that may arise due to vulnerabilities or failures in the hosting provider’s infrastructure.
We retain your saved URLs as long as your account is active. You can delete saved URLs at any time through the extension interface. Upon account deactivation, all stored data will be permanently deleted.
User Responsibility: You are responsible for managing and deleting your saved URLs and other data. We do not store data beyond your account’s active status.

To ensure the safety and security of your account, we ask that you follow these best practices:
While we implement security measures to protect your data, you understand that saving sensitive data (such as financial details, health information, or personal identifiers) in URLs is done at your own risk. We do not assume responsibility for data loss, data breaches, or unauthorized access due to user actions (e.g., sharing URLs with sensitive data or saving URLs with identifiable information).
For security and verification purposes, we process account-related requests (such as updates, deletions, or inquiries) only if they originate from the email address registered with the account. This ensures that only the account owner can make requests regarding their data or account.
Verification Process: When we receive a request related to your account, we verify it by checking if it comes from the registered email address associated with your account. This step helps us ensure the security of your data and prevent unauthorized access.
Non-Human Readable Format: All saved layouts and associated URLs are stored in an encoded format that is not directly human-readable. This encoding is designed to enhance security and privacy.
No Manual Moderation: We do not actively review, moderate, or verify the contents of the layouts or URLs saved by users. Users are solely responsible for the content they choose to store or share through our Service.
Prohibited Content: Users must not use the Service to store, share, or distribute any illegal, harmful, dangerous, or spam-related content. This includes, but is not limited to, malware links, phishing sites, copyrighted material without authorization, or any other content that violates applicable laws.
By using the Service, you agree not to engage in any activity that could harm other users, third parties, or the Company. We reserve the right to take appropriate action if we become aware of such violations, including suspending or terminating user accounts.
User Responsibility: By using our Service, you acknowledge that the Company is not responsible for the nature, content, or legality of the URLs and layouts saved or shared by users. You use the Service at your own risk and are solely responsible for any consequences resulting from the content you save or share.
We take the misuse of our Service seriously. If you encounter any illegal, harmful, spam-related, or otherwise suspicious content shared through our Service, you can report it by contacting us at abuse@webective.com or info@webective.com.
Reporting Process:
No Moderation Guarantee:
Please note that we do not actively moderate user-submitted layouts or URLs. We reserve the right to take action if necessary, particularly when legally required.
By using the Service, you acknowledge that the responsibility for the content lies with the users who save and share it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on our website and notifying you via email or the extension interface. The "Last updated" date at the top of this Privacy Policy indicates when the latest changes were made.
Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from anyone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
If we need to rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your information and your country requires consent from a parent, we may require your parent's consent before we collect and use that information.
