Short version: GetSVG does not track you, does not collect analytics, and has no backend server. The only data stored is your Pro license key — saved locally in your own browser — and the only external request made is to Gumroad to verify that key.
Table of Contents
01 What Data Is Collected
GetSVG collects no personal information by default. The only data that may be stored is related to the optional Pro license, and only if you choose to activate it.
| Key | Value | When stored | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
proKey |
Your Gumroad license key (string) | When you activate Pro | Unlock Pro features locally |
proVerified |
true / false |
After Gumroad verification | Cache verification result so the extension works offline |
proEmail |
Email returned by Gumroad API | After successful verification | Display your registered email in the Pro settings UI |
The extension also reads SVGs from whichever web page you are currently viewing. This reading happens entirely in your browser and the SVG data is never sent anywhere — it is used only to display, copy, or download within the same browser session.
02 How It Is Stored
All three values (proKey, proVerified, proEmail) are stored exclusively in Chrome's built-in chrome.storage.sync. This means:
- The data lives in your browser, tied to your Chrome profile.
- Chrome may sync the data across your signed-in devices via your Google account — this is standard Chrome sync behavior that you control in your Chrome settings.
- We do not have access to this data. It never touches our servers because we have no servers.
You can clear this data at any time by removing the extension, or by going to Chrome Settings → Privacy and security → Site data and clearing extension storage.
03 External Request to Gumroad
When you enter a license key to activate Pro, GetSVG makes a single HTTPS request to the Gumroad API endpoint:
https://api.gumroad.com/v2/licenses/verify
This request sends your license key to Gumroad to confirm it is valid. Gumroad returns a response that includes whether the key is active and the email address associated with the purchase.
GetSVG does not make any other network requests. This Gumroad call only happens when you explicitly tap "Activate" in the Pro settings — it does not run in the background, on install, or on every page load.
Gumroad is an independent e-commerce platform. Their privacy practices are governed by the Gumroad Privacy Policy. We have no control over how Gumroad processes data on their end.
04 No Tracking, No Analytics
GetSVG does not include any analytics, telemetry, crash reporting, or tracking of any kind. There are no pixels, no event beacons, and no third-party SDKs. We have no way to see how you use the extension.
The extension operates entirely client-side. The only outbound network call it can ever make is the Gumroad license verification described above.
05 Third-Party Services
The only third-party service involved is Gumroad, used solely to process the one-time Pro purchase and verify license keys. Their role in data processing is limited to their own platform.
The GetSVG landing page (getsvg.app) is hosted on Vercel. Vercel may collect standard server logs (IP address, browser type, referring URL) as part of hosting. This is separate from the extension and is governed by the Vercel Privacy Policy.
06 Children's Privacy
GetSVG is a developer and designer tool not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children.
07 Changes to This Policy
If we make meaningful changes to this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where practical, note the change in the Chrome Web Store listing or extension release notes.
Continued use of the extension after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
