DailyDock Privacy Policy
Privacy practices for the DailyDock Chrome extension — a personal new-tab dashboard with no WAVFin backend; your settings stay on your device.
Last updated — May 23, 2026

Product: DailyDock — Chrome/Chromium new tab extension
Overview
DailyDock replaces your browser's new tab page with a personal dashboard (news, tasks, weather, search shortcuts, top sites, optional Google Calendar). We do not operate a DailyDock backend server. Your settings and content are stored on your device using Chrome's extension storage. We do not sell your data.
Information the extension handles
Depending on which features you use, the extension may access or store:
| Data | Purpose | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Preferences & dashboard data | Theme, layout, tasks, pinned sites, RSS settings, read/saved articles, search engine choice, recent searches, notes, weather ZIP, caches | chrome.storage.local on your device; optional chrome.storage.sync if you enable sync in Settings |
| Frequently visited sites | Top Sites module (chrome.topSites: URL and title) | Stays on device; not sent to WAVFin |
| Site favicons | Icons for Top Sites shortcuts (favicon permission / Chrome _favicon API) | Loaded for displayed URLs only; not collected by WAVFin |
| Location (optional) | Weather when no ZIP is set: device geolocation → forecast (Open-Meteo) and city label (BigDataCloud) | Sent only to those services when you use that feature; you can use a ZIP in Settings instead |
| Google account (optional) | If you connect Google Calendar: email for account labeling, OAuth tokens, calendar list and events | Between your browser and Google APIs; tokens and cache stored locally on your device |
| RSS / web content | Public feed XML (titles, links, summaries) from feeds you enable or add | Fetched from feed publishers' servers; cached locally |
We do not intentionally collect passwords, payment information, health data, or general browsing history beyond what Chrome exposes via Top Sites for that module.
Third-party services
The extension may contact:
- Open-Meteo — weather and US ZIP geocoding
- BigDataCloud — reverse geocoding for weather location labels
- Picsum Photos — optional rotating background images
- RSS publishers — default and custom feed URLs (custom feeds may request optional host permission after your approval)
- Google — OAuth and Calendar API when you connect a Google account
Each service has its own privacy policy. Data sent to them is limited to what those features need (e.g. coordinates for weather, feed URLs for RSS).
Remote code
All extension code is packaged in the extension bundle. Network responses are data (JSON, XML, images), not executable scripts loaded from the web.
Data sharing and sale
We do not sell or rent user data. We do not use DailyDock data for credit decisions or unrelated advertising. Data is used only to provide the new tab dashboard features you enable.
Retention and deletion
Data remains in extension storage until you change it, clear extension data in Chrome, disable/remove the extension, or use in-extension backup/reset options where available. Disconnect Google Calendar in Settings to stop Calendar API access; revoke the app in your Google Account permissions if desired.
Children
DailyDock is not directed at children under 13 (or the age required in your jurisdiction).
Changes
We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date will change; continued use after updates means you accept the revised policy.
