Route Weaver

Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you install, access, or use the Route Weaver browser extension.

Route Weaver provides an interactive toolbar popup where users can drag nodes across a muted earth-tone map, connect those nodes, and create pulsing colored routes.

This policy applies to the extension itself and does not govern independent websites, browser vendors, operating systems, or unrelated third-party services.

Single Purpose

Route Weaver has a focused single purpose: providing an interactive visual environment for creating routes by positioning and connecting nodes.

Features reasonably related to this purpose may include:

• Displaying a muted earth-tone map interface;
• Creating or positioning nodes;
• Dragging nodes around the map;
• Connecting one node to another;
• Displaying colored routes;
• Animating pulses along routes;
• Updating the current route layout; and
• Resetting or clearing the route design.

Route and Node Data

Route Weaver processes functional information required to create and display the route layout designed by the user.

These values are application-state information used to operate the visual route interface and are not inherently personally identifying.

Node Creation and Positioning

When a user creates, selects, or drags a node, Route Weaver may process information such as its position within the extension's map area.

Node coordinates are used to determine where the visual point should appear and how connected routes should be drawn.

These coordinates refer to positions within the extension interface and are not intended to represent the user's physical geographic location.

Route Connections

Route Weaver allows users to connect nodes through drag interactions.

The extension may temporarily maintain information identifying:

• The starting node;
• The ending node;
• The visual route path;
• The route color;
• The connection state; and
• Related animation parameters.

This information is used solely to display and operate the route created by the user.

Pulsing Route Animation

Route Weaver may animate glowing pulses that move along connections between nodes.

Animation processing may include temporary values such as pulse position, movement direction, speed, timing, color, and animation progress.

These values exist for visual rendering purposes and are not intended to identify the user.

Local Processing

Processing required for the extension may include:

• Rendering the muted map background;
• Creating and positioning nodes;
• Detecting drag interactions;
• Drawing connections;
• Updating route paths;
• Animating pulses;
• Maintaining temporary graph state; and
• Resetting the route layout.

Such processing is intended only to deliver the functionality requested by the user.

Temporary Interface State

While Route Weaver is open, the extension may temporarily maintain information necessary to display the current route design.

This may include nodes, route connections, pulse animations, visual colors, drag states, and other interface values.

Temporary state is used only to keep the interactive route display functioning correctly.

Browser Storage

If Route Weaver uses browser-provided local storage, such storage may be used for functional preferences or route-related settings.

These could include non-sensitive values such as:

• Display preferences;
• Default route colors;
• Interface options;
• Animation preferences; or
• Other configuration related to the visual tool.

Local settings are not intended to be used for advertising profiles or cross-site tracking.

Website Content

Route Weaver's standard toolbar-popup functionality does not require the general contents of webpages visited by the user in order to create routes.

The extension is not intended to archive, index, or build datasets from unrelated webpage text, images, videos, forms, or documents.

Browsing and Search History

Route Weaver does not require general browsing history or search engine history to provide its route-creation functionality.

Websites visited by the user and searches performed on unrelated services are not necessary for creating node connections or pulsing route animations.

Web Forms and Keystrokes

Route Weaver is not designed to collect information entered into forms on unrelated websites.

This includes login forms, checkout forms, contact forms, payment forms, search fields, and other unrelated page inputs.

The extension is also not intended to operate as a keystroke logging tool.

Personal Information

Route Weaver does not require users to create a dedicated Route Weaver account in order to use its standard node and route features.

The extension does not require information such as:

• Full name;
• Email address;
• Phone number;
• Home address;
• Government identification number;
• Payment card information;
• Banking credentials;
• Passwords; or
• Authentication secrets.

Sensitive Personal Information

Route Weaver does not require sensitive personal information to provide its visual route functionality.

Health information, biometric data, authentication credentials, financial information, government identifiers, political information, and other sensitive categories of data are unrelated to the extension's stated purpose.

Geographic Location

Route Weaver does not require precise device geolocation in order to let users drag and connect nodes within the extension.

The map interface is intended as a visual design surface rather than a mechanism for tracking the user's physical movement.

Camera, Microphone, and Device Files

Route Weaver does not require camera input, microphone input, or unrelated personal files stored on the user's device to provide its standard route-creation features.

The route visuals are generated within the extension interface.

Private Communications

Route Weaver does not require access to private emails, chat messages, direct messages, or other personal communications in order to create route designs.

Advertising and Profiling

Route Weaver is not intended to use node arrangements, route colors, connection patterns, or pulse interactions for targeted advertising.

The extension is not designed to analyze visual route designs in order to create behavioral or demographic profiles of individual users.

Sale of Personal Information

Route Weaver does not operate as a data brokerage service and does not intend to sell personal information to advertisers, marketing organizations, or data brokers.

Information used to operate the route interface is intended to support the extension's disclosed functionality.

Cross-Site Tracking

Route Weaver is not designed to track individual users across unrelated websites.

Cross-site monitoring is unnecessary for a route-building tool that operates within its own toolbar popup.

Cookies and Analytics

Route Weaver does not require advertising cookies to provide its core route-creation functionality.

The extension also does not require personally identifiable analytics information to draw nodes and pulsing connections.

If future versions introduce materially different diagnostic or analytics functionality, this Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect those practices.

Data Minimization

Route Weaver is designed around the principle that a browser extension should process only information reasonably necessary to provide its disclosed purpose.

Since the extension's purpose is interactive route visualization, unrelated personal information and browsing activity are not required for normal use.

Purpose Limitation

Information processed by Route Weaver is intended to be used only to provide, maintain, improve, or secure its route-creation functionality.

Functional route data is not intended to be repurposed for unrelated advertising, employment screening, credit scoring, insurance decisions, or commercial surveillance.

Data Retention

Route Weaver is not designed to maintain an unnecessary permanent remote archive of every route layout created through its standard functionality.

Temporary route data may exist while the extension is open so that nodes, connections, colors, and animations can be displayed.

Locally stored preferences, if used, may remain until they are changed, cleared, or removed through browser controls.

Data Security

Route Weaver is designed to minimize unnecessary handling of personal information.

Limiting data collection and keeping functionality focused on the extension's own route interface helps reduce unnecessary privacy and security exposure.

However, no browser extension, device, browser, operating system, or electronic environment can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

No Continuous Background Monitoring

Route Weaver does not need to continuously monitor unrelated webpage activity in order to provide its standard functionality.

The extension's primary interaction occurs when the user opens and uses the toolbar popup.

Automated Processing

Route Weaver automatically performs graphical calculations such as positioning nodes, drawing route paths, and animating pulses.

Such processing is limited to operating the visual interface.

The extension does not use personal information to make automated decisions concerning credit, employment, housing, insurance, legal rights, or other similarly significant matters.

Creative and Entertainment Use

Route Weaver is intended as an interactive visual and creative tool.

Routes created in the extension should not automatically be interpreted as real-world navigation instructions, verified travel routes, or official geographic guidance unless a future feature explicitly states otherwise.

Third-Party Websites

Route Weaver may be installed while users browse third-party websites, but those websites remain independent of the extension.

This Privacy Policy does not govern the cookies, analytics systems, data processing, or privacy practices of unrelated websites.

Browser Platforms and Extension Stores

Route Weaver operates within a browser environment supplied by a browser vendor.

Browser vendors and extension marketplaces may independently process technical information associated with installation, updates, security, crashes, or extension management according to their own policies.

Route Weaver does not control those independent practices.

Chrome Web Store and Similar Marketplaces

If Route Weaver is distributed through the Chrome Web Store or another extension marketplace, installation and update processes may be managed by that platform.

Route Weaver is intended to use browser capabilities only for purposes directly related to its disclosed interactive route functionality.

Children's Privacy

Route Weaver is a general-purpose creative visual tool and is not specifically designed for the purpose of collecting personal information from children.

The extension does not require users to create a personal account to use its standard route-design features.

International Users

Route Weaver may be available to users in multiple countries and regions.

The extension is designed to minimize unnecessary processing of personal information regardless of the user's location.

Users remain responsible for using Route Weaver in accordance with laws applicable in their jurisdiction.

User Choice and Control

Users decide when Route Weaver is opened and how nodes and routes are arranged.

Users may create nodes, drag points, connect them, modify the route design, close the popup, or stop using the extension at any time.

Clearing Local Information

If Route Weaver stores functional settings locally, users may be able to clear those settings through their browser's extension management or data controls.

Clearing extension data may restore locally saved preferences to default values.

Removing Route Weaver

Route Weaver may be disabled or uninstalled through the browser's extension management interface.

After removal, the extension will no longer operate in that browser.

Changes to Route Weaver

Route Weaver may evolve over time to improve route rendering, node controls, animation quality, map styling, accessibility, performance, or browser compatibility.

Future features may remain consistent with the extension's interactive visual route purpose.

If a future version materially changes how personal information is accessed, processed, stored, or shared, this Privacy Policy may be updated accordingly.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may periodically revise this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in Route Weaver, browser marketplace requirements, technical implementation, privacy practices, or applicable laws.

When this policy is updated, the "Last updated" date displayed on the page will be revised.

Legal Requirements

Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, court order, legal process, or a valid governmental request.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to prevent compliance with applicable legal obligations.
