+# Privacy Policy — GitHub PR Reverse Comments
+
+Last updated: 2026-08-17
+
+## Summary
+
+This extension collects nothing. No data is transmitted anywhere, and no data
+is shared with or sold to anyone.
+
+## What the extension stores
+
+One value, on your own machine, through the browser's `storage` API: your
+chosen comment order, either `"newest"` or `"oldest"`. That is the entire set
+of data the extension writes. It exists so the order you picked still applies
+the next time you open a pull request.
+
+If you sync extension data through your browser account, that single preference
+value may sync between your own devices via your browser vendor's sync service.
+Nothing is sent to the extension author.
+
+## What the extension does not do
+
+- No analytics, telemetry, crash reporting, or usage tracking.
+- No network requests of any kind. The extension makes no outbound connections.
+- No reading, storing, or transmitting of pull request content, comments, code,
+  account details, or browsing history.
+- No advertising, and no sale or transfer of user data to third parties.
+- No remote code. All JavaScript that runs is included in the published
+  extension package.
+
+## Site access
+
+The extension runs only on GitHub pull request pages — URLs matching
+`https://github.com/*/*/pull/*`. On those pages it reads the page's own DOM in
+order to re-order the comment timeline and the commit list inside your browser
+tab. That page content is never copied, stored, or sent anywhere; it is only
+re-arranged on screen. The extension has no access to any other website or tab.
+
+## Permissions
+
+- **`storage`** — stores the single `"newest"` / `"oldest"` preference locally.
+- **`https://github.com/*` host access** — required to inject the content
+  script that re-orders GitHub pull request pages.
+
+## Source code
+
+The extension is open source and can be audited in full:
+https://github.com/ShiosOS/github-pr-reverse-comments
