AlyawmGold Browser Extension Privacy Policy
This policy explains how the AlyawmGold browser extension handles information while providing public gold and silver prices.
Last updated: September 20, 2026
Privacy at a glance
- No account, registration, advertising identifier, or behavioral profile is created.
- The extension does not sell user data or share it for advertising, lending, or creditworthiness decisions.
- Preferences and recent public price data are stored locally in Edge or Firefox, whichever browser you use.
- The extension connects only to https://alyawmgold.com over HTTPS.
- No remote JavaScript or WebAssembly is downloaded or executed.
1. Extension purpose
The Edge and Firefox extensions display current public gold and silver prices for six GCC markets and the United States. Users can select a market, preferred gold karat, toolbar-badge price, and interface language. There is no separate display-currency setting; the selected market determines the currency.
2. Information handled by the extension
| Information | Purpose | Where it is handled |
|---|---|---|
| Selected market code, such as AE, SA, or US | Chooses the public price reference and currency. This is a user-selected preference, not precise device location. | Stored locally. A supported GCC market code is sent with its price request; the US selection uses the public UAE reference response to calculate its USD spot values. |
| Preferred karat, badge option, and language | Preserves the user's display choices. | Stored only in the browser's local extension storage. |
| Recently retrieved public price data and update status | Supports the popup, toolbar badge, freshness indicators, and clearly marked cached-data behavior. | Stored temporarily in the browser's local extension storage. |
The extension does not request or collect a user's name, email address, phone number, payment details, authentication credentials, health information, browsing history, communications, keystrokes, or content from visited websites.
3. Network requests and standard server logs
For a GCC market, the extension sends the selected market code to AlyawmGold to retrieve its public quote. When United States is selected, the website's public API does not yet offer a US market response, so the extension requests the UAE reference response and calculates the underlying international USD spot values using the exchange rate in that response. It does not use a fixed rate or a GCC local dealer estimate for US prices. It may also open an AlyawmGold page when the user selects a details link. The extension itself does not contact advertising, analytics, or tracking services.
As with ordinary HTTPS requests, AlyawmGold's hosting and security systems may generate standard server logs containing connection information such as an IP address, user agent, request time, and requested URL. The extension does not attach an AlyawmGold account, advertising identifier, or extension-generated persistent identifier to these requests.
4. Why the extension requests permissions
- Storage: saves display preferences and a recent public price response locally.
- Alarms: schedules price refreshes and expires a toolbar price when it is no longer fresh. It does not create notifications.
- Host access to alyawmgold.com: retrieves public price data and opens selected AlyawmGold pages. It does not read or modify unrelated websites.
Firefox may describe the user-selected market as regional information in its add-on data-collection disclosure. The extension does not request device-location permission or determine a precise location.
5. Use, disclosure, and sale of information
Information handled by the extension is used only to provide its price-display features. AlyawmGold does not sell extension user data, use it for purposes unrelated to the extension's single purpose, transfer it for advertising, or use it to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.
6. Retention and user controls
Preferences and cached public price data remain in local extension storage until they are replaced, cleared by the browser, or the extension is uninstalled. Users can change their market, karat, badge, and language selections from the extension interface. Uninstalling the extension removes its local extension storage under the browser's normal extension-removal behavior.
7. Security and remote code
Price requests use HTTPS. All executable JavaScript, HTML, CSS, fonts, and images are packaged with the extension. Public JSON price data is treated as data and is not executed as code.
8. Policy changes
This policy may be updated when the extension's functionality or data practices change. The date at the top of this page identifies the latest revision.
