Privacy Policy
In short: the extension does not collect, store on any server, sell or share any personal data. Everything it does happens inside your own browser.
1. What the extension does
Shelf Sorter for Goodreads adds a small panel to shelf and list pages on goodreads.com. It lets you sort the books shown there by number of ratings, average rating or a weighted rating.
2. Information we collect
None. The extension has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. The developer operates no server for this extension and receives no information about you, the pages you visit or the books you view.
3. Information the extension reads in your browser
To sort a shelf or list, the extension reads the following from the Goodreads page you have opened:
- book titles and links,
- each book's average rating and number of ratings,
- the total number of books that Goodreads states for the shelf or list.
This information is used only to reorder the books on your screen. It is kept in the page's memory and is discarded when you close or reload the tab. It is never sent to the developer or to any third party.
4. Requests the extension makes
When you click "Load all pages", the extension requests the remaining pages of the same shelf or list from goodreads.com, exactly as your browser would if you clicked "next" yourself. These requests go only to goodreads.com and use your existing Goodreads session. The extension contacts no other website.
5. Settings saved on your device
The extension remembers four preferences so the panel looks the same on your next visit: the chosen sort, the sort direction, the "minimum ratings" value, and whether the panel is collapsed. They are saved in your browser's local storage for goodreads.com, stay on your device, and contain no personal information. You can delete them by clearing site data for goodreads.com or by removing the extension and clearing your browsing data.
6. Permissions
The extension runs only on pages of https://www.goodreads.com. It requests no other browser permissions, such as access to your browsing history, tabs, location or other websites.
7. Sharing and sale of data
Because no data is collected, none is shared, sold, transferred or used for advertising, creditworthiness or any other purpose.
8. Goodreads' own privacy practices
Your use of goodreads.com remains subject to Goodreads' own terms and privacy notice. This extension does not change what Goodreads collects when you browse or load its pages.
9. Children
The extension is a general-purpose tool and collects no information from anyone, including children.
10. Changes to this policy
If the extension changes in a way that affects privacy, this page will be updated and the effective date above will change.
