PriceWatch Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 23, 2026
Overview
PriceWatch is a free browser extension that helps you save products, compare prices, and track price history. It has no account, no backend server and no analytics.
What PriceWatch stores
Everything is stored only in your browser, using Chrome's local extension storage:
- Saved products: title, price, currency, product page URL, image URL, store name
- Price history for saved products (price and date)
- Your tags, notes and comparison groups
- Preferences (for example dark mode)
The developer never receives this data. It is not sold, shared or transferred to anyone.
What PriceWatch reads on web pages
On product pages of supported stores (Amazon, eBay, AliExpress, Walmart, Best Buy), and on any other page when you open the PriceWatch popup there, the extension reads the product title, price, currency and image address from the page. This happens inside your browser. When you open the page of a product you saved earlier, PriceWatch records its current price in your local price history.
PriceWatch does not read or store your browsing history, passwords, forms, cookies or any other page content.
Network requests
PriceWatch does not send your data anywhere. However, some things it shows come from the internet:
- Product images. Images of your saved products are loaded directly from the stores' image servers (the image address saved from the product page), the same way they load when you visit the store. Those servers receive a normal image request from your browser, which includes your IP address.
- Links you click. "Open Page" opens the store's product page. If a "Support the project" button is shown and you click it, the donation provider's website opens. Those websites have their own privacy policies.
