Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 15, 2026
This policy explains what data the Universal Action Helper browser extension (“the helper”, “we”) handles, why, who receives it and how long it is kept. The helper has a single purpose: to confirm the tasks that members of participating communities complete, so their community can credit their rewards.
Data the helper handles
Your community account
A sign-in credential from the community site you use, so the helper can report your completed tasks to that community. It is kept in your browser and sent only to that community.
Tasks you complete
Information about each task you complete: the task, the type of action, the web page it was completed on, when, and the technical details needed to confirm it. For tasks that ask you to write something, this includes what you wrote. This is sent to the community that offered the task.
Profile verification
When you ask your community to verify a profile you linked, the helper reads basic information from your own profile, such as the account you are signed in to, audience size and whether a profile photo is set. Some communities also ask for an image of your own profile page. This is sent only to the community that asked for the verification.
Automatic actions (off by default)
If you switch on automatic actions, the helper completes tasks from your community in your browser, under your account, within limits. You can switch this off at any time.
Diagnostics
Technical information about how the helper works on your device — its version, your browser type, errors and the steps of tasks — so we can find and fix problems. It is linked to a random installation identifier and to your community account identifier, never includes passwords or sign-in credentials, and is deleted after 14 days.
How the data is used
Only to provide the helper's single purpose: confirming completed tasks and verifying profiles for your community, and keeping the helper working. The data is not used or transferred for any other purpose.
What we do not do
- We do not sell or rent user data.
- We do not use or transfer user data for advertising, or to determine creditworthiness or for lending.
- We do not ask for or store your passwords or payment information.
- We do not collect data that is not needed for the helper's purpose.
Who receives data
- The community you use receives your completed tasks and profile verification data, and handles it under its own privacy policy.
- We receive diagnostics.
- Our service providers host our systems on our behalf and may process data only to provide that service.
We do not share data with anyone else, except where the law requires it.
How long data is kept
Data in your browser stays until you remove the helper. Diagnostics are deleted after 14 days. Data received by a community is kept according to that community's policy. See How we store data.
Your choices
- Removing the helper from your browser deletes everything it kept in your browser.
- Automatic actions can be switched off at any time.
- To access or delete diagnostics linked to your account, write to support@universalactionhelper.org. For data held by a community, contact that community.
Security
Data is sent over encrypted connections. See How we protect data.
Children
The helper is not intended for anyone under 18.
Chrome Web Store User Data Policy
The use of information received by the helper adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Changes
We will update this page when the way the helper handles data changes, and change the date at the top.
