How Tangle Loom handles information

Tangle Loom is designed as a compact visual tool rather than a service built around user accounts or personal profiles. The extension processes the information necessary to create nodes, establish links, animate glowing pulses, maintain the current graph state, and clear the graph when requested.

No account required Core graph functionality does not require a Tangle Loom account.
Graph-focused processing Node positions and links are used to render the graph and pulse animations.
No profiling purpose Graph interactions are not intended for behavioral advertising or user profiling.
01

Overview and Scope

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

Tangle Loom provides a popup toolbar interface for building and interacting with node graphs. Users can add nodes by tapping or clicking, connect nodes by dragging between them, observe animated glowing pulses flowing through connections, and reset the graph to begin a new design.

This Privacy Policy applies to functionality provided directly by Tangle Loom. It does not govern independent websites, browser vendors, operating systems, or unrelated online services.

02

Single Purpose

The primary purpose of Tangle Loom is to provide an interactive visual node graph environment inside the browser extension popup.

Functionality reasonably associated with this purpose includes:

  • Creating nodes;
  • Positioning nodes within the graph;
  • Connecting nodes by dragging;
  • Displaying connection lines;
  • Animating glowing pulses through those connections;
  • Updating the visual graph after user interaction;
  • Clearing nodes and connections; and
  • Resetting the interface for a new graph.
03

Personal Information

Tangle Loom does not require personally identifiable information in order to provide its normal graph functionality.

Users are not required to provide information such as:

  • Full name;
  • Email address;
  • Telephone number;
  • Postal address;
  • Government identification information;
  • Payment card information;
  • Bank account information;
  • Passwords; or
  • Authentication credentials.
No dedicated account is necessary.

Users can interact with the standard node graph without creating a Tangle Loom profile or signing into a remote account.

04

Graph Interaction Data

Tangle Loom processes functional graph information so that the extension can display the scene created by the user.

Node coordinates Used to determine where each node appears inside the graph.
Node count Used to maintain the number of currently displayed graph nodes.
Connections Used to determine which nodes are linked together.
Drag interactions Used to create or modify links within the graph.
Animation state Used to display glowing pulses moving through graph connections.
Reset state Used to remove graph elements when the user requests a reset.

This information is application state used for operating the node graph and is not inherently personal information.

05

Node Creation

When a user taps or clicks to add a node, Tangle Loom processes information necessary to create that visual node at the selected location.

Node creation may involve storing temporary values such as the node's identifier, visual position, connection status, or current animation state.

These values exist for the purpose of rendering and maintaining the interactive graph.

06

Connections Between Nodes

Tangle Loom allows users to drag between nodes to create links.

The extension may temporarily maintain information identifying the starting node, ending node, visual path, and relationship between connected nodes.

Connection information is used only to draw and operate the graph created by the user.

07

Glowing Pulse Animation

Tangle Loom displays animated pulses that travel through graph connections.

Animation processing may include information such as:

  • Current pulse position;
  • Animation progress;
  • Connection direction;
  • Timing values;
  • Visual intensity;
  • Active connection paths; and
  • Other rendering values.

These values are generated and processed to display the extension's visual effect.

08

Reset Functionality

The reset control allows users to clear all current nodes and connections from the graph.

When reset is activated, Tangle Loom may remove the current graph state and return the interface to its initial condition.

Reset operations are functional actions and are not used to collect information about the user.

09

Local Processing

Tangle Loom is designed so that its primary graph interactions and animations can be handled within the browser extension environment.

Local processing may include:

  • Creating graphical nodes;
  • Calculating node positions;
  • Detecting drag actions;
  • Creating connections;
  • Rendering connection lines;
  • Animating pulses;
  • Updating the graph state; and
  • Clearing the graph.
Data minimization

Tangle Loom is intended to process only information reasonably necessary to provide its visual node graph functionality.

10

Temporary Application State

While Tangle Loom is open, the extension may temporarily maintain information required to preserve the currently displayed graph.

This may include active nodes, node positions, link relationships, pulse animation progress, and other interface state.

Temporary graph state exists to allow the extension to respond correctly to user actions.

11

Browser Storage

If a version of Tangle Loom uses browser-provided local storage, such storage may be used for functional preferences or graph-related configuration.

Locally stored values, if any, are intended to support the extension's functionality and convenience.

They are not intended to create advertising profiles, identify users across unrelated websites, or operate as a data brokerage mechanism.

12

Browsing History

Tangle Loom does not require a user's general browsing history in order to create nodes, draw connections, or animate pulses.

The extension's node graph functionality does not depend on maintaining a historical list of websites visited by the user.

13

Website Content

Tangle Loom's standard toolbar popup functionality does not require the general content of unrelated webpages in order to create and display its node graph.

The extension is not designed to build archives or datasets from unrelated webpage text, images, videos, documents, or other site content.

14

Search History

Tangle Loom does not need users' search engine history in order to provide its visual graph functionality.

Search queries performed on unrelated websites are not required to determine node positions, graph links, or pulse behavior.

15

Web Forms and Keystrokes

Tangle Loom is not designed to collect data entered into forms on unrelated websites.

This includes:

  • Login forms;
  • Registration forms;
  • Contact forms;
  • Payment forms;
  • Checkout forms;
  • Search boxes; and
  • Other unrelated webpage inputs.

The extension is also not intended to monitor keystrokes entered outside its own interface.

16

Sensitive Information

Tangle Loom does not require sensitive personal information in order to provide its standard functionality.

The extension does not require information such as:

  • Medical or health information;
  • Biometric identifiers;
  • Government identification numbers;
  • Banking credentials;
  • Credit card information;
  • Authentication secrets;
  • Political or religious information; or
  • Other sensitive personal data.
17

Passwords and Authentication Information

Tangle Loom does not require passwords, login tokens, authentication codes, private keys, or similar credentials to create or interact with node graphs.

Credentials associated with unrelated websites are not necessary for the extension's disclosed purpose.

18

Financial and Location Information

Tangle Loom does not require financial information such as payment card numbers or bank account credentials for its core functionality.

The extension also does not require precise geographic location information in order to create visual node graphs.

19

Tangle Loom does not require those communications in order to create nodes, links, or visual pulse animations.

20

Camera and Microphone

Tangle Loom does not require camera or microphone input for its normal graph functionality.

Nodes and visual animations are generated within the extension interface rather than from recorded video, voice, or ambient audio.

21

Advertising

Tangle Loom does not intend to use graph structures, node positions, connection patterns, or animation interactions for targeted advertising.

The extension is not designed to monitor users across unrelated websites for behavioral advertising or remarketing.

22

No Sale of Personal Information

Tangle Loom does not sell personal information to advertisers, marketing organizations, data brokers, or other third parties.

The extension's purpose is to provide an interactive visual tool, not to monetize personal information.

23

No User Profiling

Tangle Loom does not intend to analyze graph behavior in order to create behavioral or demographic profiles of individual users.

Node arrangements and graph designs are not intended to be used to infer sensitive personal characteristics.

24

No Cross-Site Tracking

Tangle Loom is not designed to track individual users across unrelated websites.

Cross-site monitoring is unnecessary for the extension's toolbar-based node graph functionality.

25
