Privacy Policy
Gilmedia SERP Counter · last updated 13 August 2026
This extension collects nothing, sends nothing, and has no server to send anything to.
What the extension does
Gilmedia SERP Counter reads the Google search results page you are already looking at, in order to number each result by its true rank and highlight any domain on a list you have entered yourself. All of that happens inside your browser, on the page as it is already displayed.
Data we collect
None. To be specific about the categories Google asks developers to declare:
| Category | Collected |
|---|---|
| Personally identifiable information | No |
| Health information | No |
| Financial and payment information | No |
| Authentication information | No |
| Personal communications | No |
| Location | No |
| Web history | No |
| User activity | No |
| Website content | Read in the page, never transmitted or stored |
What is stored, and where
-
Your list of domains and business names. Saved with the
storagepermission into Chrome's own sync storage, so it follows your Chrome profile across your devices. It is synced by Google as part of your Chrome profile, exactly like a bookmark. It is never sent to us, because there is nowhere for it to be sent. - Your display preferences. The checkboxes for which result types to number. Same storage, same treatment.
- A short-lived record of the current search. While you page through results for one search term, the extension keeps a note of what it found in your browser tab's session storage so the panel can show a running total. It is deleted when you close the tab.
Network activity
The extension makes no network requests of any kind. There is no backend service, no analytics, no telemetry, no error reporting and no update ping beyond Chrome's own extension update mechanism.
Permissions and why they exist
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
storage |
To remember your list of domains and your display preferences between sessions. |
| Access to Google search pages | To read the results already on screen so they can be numbered and highlighted. The extension runs only on Google search and Google Maps pages, and on no other website. |
Third parties
No data is sold, shared, or transferred to anyone, for any purpose. There are no third-party libraries, trackers, or advertising systems in the extension.
Children
The extension is a professional search tool and is not directed at children. Since it collects no data at all, it collects none from children either.
Changes to this policy
If the extension ever starts handling data differently, this page will be updated before that version ships, and the date at the top will change.
Contact
