1. Summary
SELFLEX processes visited domains, page titles, URLs, search queries, and visible usage time to provide digital wellbeing insights. Records are stored in the browser’s extension-specific storage.local area. SELFLEX has no remote user database or analytics server.
2. Data processed
- Visited URL and domain
- Page title and favicon address
- Visible-tab duration and visit time
- Queries on supported search engines
- Custom categories, exclusions, and privacy preferences
- Screen-sharing detection state
3. Purpose
Data is used only to calculate dashboard metrics, category distribution, weekly and hourly patterns, search topics, and break reminders. SELFLEX does not build advertising profiles or sell data.
4. Storage and transfer
Browsing records remain on your device. A network request may be made to a visited website to display its favicon; this is not a request to a SELFLEX collection server. Safari native messaging stays between the extension and its containing macOS app.
5. Your controls
- Privacy mode permanently removes paths, titles, and search queries.
- Specific websites can be excluded from measurement.
- One domain or all local records can be deleted.
- Data can be exported and restored through a local JSON file.
6. Permissions
SELFLEX requests storage, tabs, alarms, notifications, and Safari nativeMessaging. It runs on HTTP(S) pages to measure time. See the Transparency Center for details.
