Effective date: November 9, 2026

Applies to: FinishLater version 0.2.0 and later

Summary

• FinishLater stores your saved pages on your own device. It has no account, no server of its own, no analytics and no ads, and it never sells or shares your data.
• If you choose to turn on the optional Sync feature, FinishLater uses Chrome Sync to copy your saved pages, notes and settings to your Google account, so your other computers get them too. Sync is off by default.
• FinishLater itself makes no network requests. When Sync is on, Chrome does the syncing, not FinishLater.

What FinishLater stores

Only what you choose to save, in your Chrome profile on this device:

• the web address (URL) and title of each page you save
• the note you write
• the reminder time and time zone you choose, and whether it repeats (for example, every week)
• the status of each saved page (waiting, done or archived)
• timestamps (saved, updated, completed, archived, last opened) and how many times you reopened a page
• a reference to the page's icon, when Chrome provides one
• your FinishLater settings, such as language, quick-choice times, time format and notification privacy

FinishLater reads a page's address and title only when you click its toolbar icon or press its keyboard shortcut on that page. It does not read page content, form fields, passwords, cookies or your browsing history, and it does not run scripts on websites.

Chrome Sync (optional, off by default)

FinishLater has a setting called "Sync with your Chrome account". It is turned off until you turn it on. It only works if you are signed in to Chrome with sync enabled.

What is synced when you turn it on

• for each saved page: its address, title, note, status, reminder time, time zone, repeat setting, and its saved, updated, completed and archived timestamps
• your FinishLater settings
• a short list of markers for pages you deleted (their internal IDs and the time of deletion), kept for up to 60 days, so deletions reach your other computers

What is not synced: how many times you reopened a page, when you last opened it, and the page's icon. Backup files are never synced.

Who handles it. The syncing is done by Chrome and stored by Google, together with the rest of your Chrome sync data, under Google's own terms and privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy). FinishLater does not run a sync server and cannot see your Google account. Whether your synced data is protected with a sync passphrase is controlled in your Chrome sync settings. FinishLater does not add its own encryption.

Limits. Chrome limits how much an extension can sync. If your pages don't all fit, pages with reminders are synced first and the rest stay on this computer only. FinishLater shows you when this happens.

Turning it off. Turning Sync off stops FinishLater from syncing. It does not automatically delete copies that Chrome Sync already holds. To remove them, delete the pages in FinishLater while Sync is still on (the deletion is applied on the next sync), or reset your Chrome sync data in your Google account.

What FinishLater does not do

• It does not send your data to the developer or to any third party. FinishLater itself makes no network requests and does not load anything from the websites you save.
• It does not use analytics, advertising, tracking or AI services.
• It does not work in Incognito windows.

Notifications

When a reminder is due, FinishLater asks Chrome to show a system notification. By default the notification only says that something is due. It doesn't show the page title or address. You can change this in Settings.

Backups

If you export a backup, FinishLater creates a JSON file on your computer containing your saved titles, addresses and notes, and optionally your settings. That file is under your control. FinishLater never uploads it.

Retention and deletion

Data stays until you delete it. You can delete pages individually, or all at once in Settings under Data & privacy. Uninstalling FinishLater, or removing your Chrome profile, deletes the data stored on this computer. If you used Sync, copies may remain in Chrome Sync until you remove them as described above. FinishLater does not encrypt your data beyond the protections Chrome and your operating system provide.

Children

FinishLater does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If a future version changes how data is handled, this policy will be updated and the effective date above will change. Any feature that sends data off your device will stay optional and off until you turn it on.
