# Privacy Policy

#### 1. Our Commitment to Privacy

Chance ("we," "us," or "the Extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. We adopt "Privacy-First" design principles, collecting only the minimum information necessary to provide our services and comply with legal requirements. We never sell your personal data to third parties.

#### 2. Types of Data Collected & Purpose

* **Geographic Information (IP Address):** We process your IP address when you interact with our servers. The sole purpose is to verify if you are located in a "Restricted Jurisdiction" to fulfill legal compliance obligations. We do not link IP addresses to your personal identity.
* **Wallet Address & On-Chain Data:** The extension reads your public wallet address to display your asset status and transaction history within the interface.
* **Technical Data:** We may collect anonymized technical information (e.g., browser version, operating system) to optimize extension performance and fix bugs.
* **Session Data (Cookies):** We utilize cookies solely to maintain secure session authentication and user state with our data proxy (<https://chance.tech/v1/\\>\*). This ensures secure and authorized data fetching.

#### 3. Data Encryption & Storage Security

* **Encrypted Storage:** All sensitive data, including wallet private keys, are subjected to high-level encryption during storage.
* **No Plain-text Access:** We do not store, read, or transmit your private keys in plain-text. No member of the Chance team can access the keys to your assets.
* **Third-party Security:** We may utilize trusted third-party security providers to host encrypted key data, all of whom are subject to rigorous security audits and compliance standards.

#### 4. Browser Permissions Justification

To ensure proper functionality, the extension requests the following permissions:

* **SidePanel:** Required to host the professional data interface in a dedicated sidebar, allowing users to analyze stats without obstructing video content.
* **Storage:** Used to save your local UI preferences (e.g., theme settings) and encrypted local wallet information.
* **Cookies:** Necessary for maintaining secure authentication sessions with our data proxy.
* **Host Permissions:** Required for <https://chance.tech/v1/\\>\* to fetch real-time market data and probability statistics.
* **Note on Third-Party Sites:** As a sidebar-based implementation, Chance does not inject code into or modify the private data of third-party platforms like YouTube or Twitch.

#### 5. Third-Party Services & Blockchain Transparency

* **External APIs:** We fetch market data from third-party APIs like Polymarket. The privacy practices of these services are governed by their respective policies.
* **Blockchain Transparency:** Please be aware that blockchain technology is transparent. Any transactions initiated via this extension (including amounts, timestamps, and addresses) are permanently public on the blockchain.

#### 6. Data Retention & User Rights

* **Data Erasure:** You can delete all locally stored data at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing your browser cache.
* **Access Rights:** Since we do not store your personally identifiable information, most data rights can be exercised by you directly on the local client.

#### 7. Governing Law

This Privacy Policy is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Panama.
