Tweet Media Archive Privacy Policy

What the extension does

Tweet Media Archive lets you paste X/Twitter, Instagram, or direct media URLs and save the resolved media files to your Dropbox or Google Drive folder.

Information you provide

• Media URLs you paste into the extension.
• Your selected storage provider: Dropbox or Google Drive.
• Folder settings, including Dropbox folder, Google Drive folder, saved folder options, and optional local download folder.
• Preferences such as auto-start on paste, overwrite existing files, and whether to save local copies.
• Optional Dropbox or Google Drive authorization.
• Optional custom Dropbox app key or Google OAuth client ID if you choose to use your own OAuth app instead of the included one.
• Optional X or Instagram sign-in cookies when you choose to connect those accounts for posts that require a signed-in session.
• Payment or subscription status provided by ExtensionPay.

How data is used

• URLs are used to resolve image or video files from supported services.
• Media files are uploaded to the Dropbox or Google Drive folder you select.
• The included Dropbox app key is used only to start Dropbox OAuth and upload files to the Dropbox account you authorize.
• The included Google OAuth client is used only to request Google Drive authorization through Chrome and upload files to the Google account you authorize.
• Optional X or Instagram cookies are used only to access media that your signed-in browser session can already view.
• Payment status is used to apply the free upload limit and paid unlock.

Dropbox authorization

• The extension includes a Dropbox app key so most users can connect without creating their own Dropbox app.
• When you connect Dropbox, Dropbox shows its own authorization page. If you approve it, Dropbox returns access credentials to the extension.
• Those Dropbox credentials are stored locally in your browser profile and encrypted before storage.
• The extension uses those credentials to create the configured Dropbox folder if needed and upload the media files you choose to save.
• If you save a custom Dropbox app key, it is encrypted locally. Changing it requires Dropbox reauthorization.

Google Drive OAuth

• The extension includes a Google OAuth client ID for Google Drive connection.
• Google Drive access uses the Drive file scope. That lets the extension create and manage files it creates or files you explicitly open/share with it. It does not grant broad read access to every file in your Drive.
• When you connect Google Drive, Google shows its own consent page. If you approve it, Google returns access credentials to the extension.
• Those Google credentials are stored locally in your browser profile and encrypted before storage.
• The extension uses those credentials to create or find the configured Google Drive folder and upload the media files you choose to save.
• If you save a custom Google OAuth client ID, it is encrypted locally. Changing it clears the current Google Drive authorization so you can reconnect with the new client.

Where data is stored

• Settings are stored in Chrome sync storage when available, so Chrome may sync them across browser profiles signed into the same Chrome account.
• Stored settings include the selected provider, remote folder names, folder options, auto-start preference, overwrite preference, local-copy preference, and local download folder.
• Upload history stores pasted URLs, uploaded filenames, provider, remote file link/path, optional local saved path, file size, and save time. This history is stored locally in the browser profile.
• Active upload progress is stored locally so the popup and history window can show running uploads.
• Cloud authorization records are stored locally in the browser profile.
• Dropbox access tokens, Google access or refresh tokens, custom OAuth values, and optional X/Instagram cookies are encrypted before local storage.
• A best-effort copy of the free-upload counter may be stored in Chrome sync for the same Chrome profile.

Third-party services

The extension may communicate with Dropbox, Google Drive, X/Twitter, Instagram, and ExtensionPay when you use those features. This website uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand page visits and conversion clicks. Vercel Web Analytics does not use cookies and stores anonymized analytics data. Those services process data under their own privacy policies.

What is not collected

• The extension does not sell your data.
• The extension does not run its own analytics service.
• The extension does not upload your saved history to a developer-operated server.
• The included Dropbox app key and Google OAuth client ID do not give the developer access to your Dropbox or Google Drive account.
• Google Drive access uses the narrower Drive file scope, not full Drive read access.

Your controls

• You can disconnect Dropbox or Google Drive from the extension setup page.
• You can clear saved X or Instagram account access from the setup page.
• You can clear upload history from the history window.
• You can remove the extension from Chrome to delete extension-local browser data.
