Summary
BlockMe does not collect, transmit, sell, or share personal data or browsing data. It has no telemetry, no analytics, no accounts, and no servers.
What stays on your device
- Your blocklist, schedules, and settings are stored in Chrome’s
extension storage (
chrome.storage.sync), which Chrome may sync across your own signed-in browsers. This data never touches any server of ours — we do not have servers. - Blocked-attempt counters (shown in Insights) are stored locally
(
chrome.storage.local), never leave your device, and are deleted automatically after 90 days. - Blocking itself runs inside Chrome’s declarativeNetRequest rule engine. BlockMe never reads or modifies the content of the pages you visit.
The one network request
If you purchase BlockMe Pro, the extension talks to exactly one host:
api.polar.sh — the payment provider (Polar, our merchant of record) —
to activate and periodically re-validate your license key. That request
contains the license key you entered and a random activation
identifier. It never contains browsing data, page contents, or your
blocklist.
On the free tier, the extension makes no network requests at all.
Purchases themselves happen on Polar’s checkout pages and are governed by Polar’s privacy policy. BlockMe never sees your payment details; the extension stores only your license key and its validation status.
Permissions
BlockMe requests the minimum permissions needed to block sites
(declarativeNetRequest, storage, alarms, activeTab). Site
access (<all_urls>) is optional, off by default, and used only so
Chrome can show BlockMe’s block page in place of a blocked site.
