Privacy policy for Source Light
At Source Light, we believe that building regenerative local economies starts with absolute trust and transparency. This Privacy Policy describes how the Source Light browser extension for Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and other compatible web browsers collects, uses, and protects information when you install and use our ethical ratings companion.
- Aggregated and Anonymized Data Collection
We run a strictly zero-tracking, privacy-first companion. Our servers do not track your search history, store your personal IP addresses, or map your shopping behavior back to your personal identity.
To generate product ratings on Amazon, our extension extracts only the bare minimum contextual details:
- The Amazon ASIN (Product Identifier)
- The Product Title and Brand Name
- The Product Category (e.g., "Clothing" or "Grocery")
Any telemetry collected regarding these query categories is strictly anonymized and aggregated. This category-level interest log is used purely to help us identify high-demand categories where we can prioritize onboarding regional vendor replacements for our future ethical marketplace.
- User Controls and Data Choices
You remain in complete control of your experience at all times. We provide several tools to manage your information usage:
- Dismissing the Toolbar: You can click the close "×" button on the right side of the Source Light Info Bar to dismiss it instantly on any product page. This removes the toolbar from the DOM for the current session.
- Disabling the Extension: You can pause or disable the extension globally by navigating to your browser's Extension Settings dashboard (e.g., chrome://extensions, edge://extensions, or about:addons) and toggling the switch off.
- Uninstalling the Extension: To completely remove the extension and all local cached details, right-click the Source Light icon in your browser's toolbar and select "Remove" or "Uninstall".
- How You Access Your Information
Because we strictly do not collect, request, or compile personally identifiable information (PII)—including names, email addresses, logins, or browsing profiles—there is no personal data record or profile linked to your browser inside our databases. As a result, we do not maintain a dashboard for you to request access or deletion of personal data because no such data exists.
If you have questions about our zero-PII data policies or wish to verify how our anonymized aggregation scripts operate, please feel free to reach out to us directly at support@getsourcelight.com.
- Compliance and Jurisdictional Regulations
Although we do not collect personal profiles, our systems are built from the ground up to comply with all leading international and regional privacy regulations, including:
- GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation): We adhere to the principles of data minimization and privacy by design.
- CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act): We do not sell, rent, or trade user data or behavioral analytics.
- Permitting Extension Store Distribution
By presenting our Privacy Policy in compliance with browser extension marketplace guidelines, you agree and permit Microsoft, Google, Mozilla, Apple, and other browser marketplace operators to present, host, and link this policy to users within their respective extension directories.
- Policy Updates
As we introduce new features and expand into our local map and marketplace phases, this policy will be kept up-to-date. Any changes will be posted here on our website.
