AudioMatch privacy policy
AudioMatch collects zero personal data. There are no user accounts, no analytics tracking, no external servers, and all language results are cached locally on your device.
AudioMatch is a Chrome extension designed to identify and display the original spoken audio language and AI dubbing status of YouTube videos. This privacy policy outlines how the extension interacts with technical data. Short version: it collects no personal information.
What AudioMatch accesses
- YouTube pages you visit: The extension reads video elements on YouTube pages you navigate to, enabling it to position language chips directly beside thumbnails and video titles.
- Public YouTube player metadata: For videos displayed on your screen, your browser requests public caption and audio track manifests from YouTube public endpoints. These requests are made without your YouTube account session cookies.
What AudioMatch stores locally
- User settings: Your chosen target language and display mode (dim, hide or label) are saved via Chrome storage sync so preferences persist across your signed-in browsers.
- Local metadata cache: Detected video language tags, dubbing status and timestamps are stored in Chrome local storage on your device. Cached records automatically expire after 14 days, or can be cleared immediately via the popup.
What AudioMatch does not do
- It does not collect, transmit, profile or sell personal information, browsing history or viewing habits.
- It operates without external servers: Sorami receives zero data from the extension.
- It includes no third-party analytics, advertising libraries, tracking beacons or fingerprinting scripts.
- It operates strictly on
https://www.youtube.com/*and accesses no other websites.
