Protecting your personal data is very important to us. This privacy policy explains in detail which data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and what rights you have. DealMonitor is operated by Robert-William Kaspar, based in Germany. All data is stored on servers located in Germany.

2What data we collect

We collect and process the following categories of personal data, depending on how you use DealMonitor:

  • Account data: email address, hashed password (or Google OAuth ID), preferred language
  • Tracker data: product URLs, target prices, price history, shop domains
  • Notification data: Telegram chat ID (if connected), push subscription endpoint (if enabled)
  • Technical data: IP address (in server logs, not stored permanently), browser type, operating system
  • Extension data: visited shop domains, detected price candidates

3Legal basis for processing

We process your data on the following legal bases under GDPR:

  • Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — Performance of a contract: processing necessary to provide the DealMonitor service (account management, price tracking, notifications)
  • Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — Consent: optional features such as Telegram notifications, web push notifications, and Google Analytics
  • Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — Legitimate interest: server logs for security, fraud prevention, and service improvement

4How we use your data

Your data is used exclusively for the following purposes:

  • Providing the price tracking service: scraping product pages, detecting prices, storing price history
  • Sending notifications: email alerts, Telegram messages, and web push notifications when your target price is reached
  • Account management: authentication, password reset, language preferences
  • Service improvement: anonymous, aggregated statistics to improve price detection accuracy
  • Affiliate links: we may embed affiliate links in product URLs. This does not affect your price and no personal data is shared with affiliate networks

5Data storage and security

All data is stored on servers located in Germany. We use the following security measures:

  • All connections are encrypted via HTTPS/TLS
  • Passwords are hashed using bcrypt (never stored in plain text)
  • Database access is restricted and protected by strong credentials
  • Server access is limited to authorized personnel only
  • Regular backups are performed to prevent data loss

6Data sharing with third parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. Data may be shared with the following third parties only as necessary:

  • Google OAuth: if you sign in with Google, we receive only your email address from Google. We do not share data back with Google beyond what is needed for authentication
  • Resend (email service): your email address is passed to Resend to deliver notification emails. Resend processes data under their own privacy policy
  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized usage data (page views, approximate location). No personal data is transmitted
  • Telegram (optional): if you connect Telegram, your Telegram chat ID is stored to send price alerts. No other Telegram data is accessed

7Cookies and tracking

DealMonitor itself does not set any cookies. We use localStorage in your browser to store your authentication token and preferences (theme, language). This data never leaves your browser except when authenticating with our servers.

Google Analytics, if enabled by the site operator, may set cookies. These are used solely for anonymous usage statistics and can be blocked by your browser settings.

8Browser extension

The DealMonitor browser extension operates with the following permissions and data handling:

  • The extension activates on all shop pages except blacklisted domains (e.g. banking, financial services) — it does not monitor all browsing activity
  • Detected price data and page URLs are sent to our servers for price tracking only
  • The extension stores your authentication token locally in the browser
  • No browsing history, keystrokes, or personal data outside of shop pages is collected
  • You can uninstall the extension at any time to completely remove it

9Rozszerzenie przeglądarki — informacje o danych w Chrome Web Store

Zgodnie z wymogami Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies poniżej ujawniamy, dla każdej standardowej kategorii danych, czy rozszerzenie przeglądarki DealMonitor je zbiera:

  • Dane umożliwiajÄ…ce identyfikacjÄ™ osoby — Tak: Twój adres e-mail jest zbierany podczas tworzenia konta DealMonitor. Samo rozszerzenie nie zbiera dodatkowych danych osobowych, takich jak imiÄ™ i nazwisko, adres, wiek czy numery identyfikacyjne
  • Informacje zdrowotne — Nie: nie sÄ… zbierane dane dotyczÄ…ce tÄ™tna, historii medycznej, objawów, diagnoz ani leczenia
  • Informacje finansowe i pÅ‚atnicze — Nie: nie sÄ… zbierane transakcje, numery kart kredytowych, oceny zdolnoÅ›ci kredytowej, sprawozdania finansowe ani historia pÅ‚atnoÅ›ci. Domeny bankowe i finansowe znajdujÄ… siÄ™ na czarnej liÅ›cie, a rozszerzenie nie aktywuje siÄ™ na nich
  • Informacje uwierzytelniajÄ…ce — Tak: Twój token uwierzytelniajÄ…cy DealMonitor jest przechowywany lokalnie w pamiÄ™ci przeglÄ…darki, aby utrzymać sesjÄ™ miÄ™dzy restartami przeglÄ…darki. Nie sÄ… zbierane hasÅ‚a, kody PIN ani pytania zabezpieczajÄ…ce. Rozszerzenie nie odczytuje danych uwierzytelniajÄ…cych z innych witryn
  • Komunikacja osobista — Nie: nie sÄ… zbierane wiadomoÅ›ci e-mail, SMS, wiadomoÅ›ci czatu ani inne treÅ›ci osobistej komunikacji
  • Lokalizacja — Nie: rozszerzenie nie zbiera współrzÄ™dnych GPS, regionu ani danych o punktach zainteresowania. Twój adres IP jest rejestrowany wyłącznie po stronie serwera w krótkotrwaÅ‚ych dziennikach serwera (zobacz sekcjÄ™ Przechowywanie danych)
  • Historia przeglÄ…dania — Nie: rozszerzenie nie zbiera listy odwiedzanych witryn. Dane sÄ… zbierane tylko dla stron, na których aktywnie klikniesz ikonÄ™ rozszerzenia lub potwierdzisz utworzenie trackera. Nie ma żadnego monitorowania historii przeglÄ…dania w tle
  • Aktywność użytkownika — Nie: brak monitorowania sieci, brak Å›ledzenia kliknięć, ruchów myszy, zdarzeÅ„ przewijania ani naciÅ›nięć klawiszy
  • Treść witryny — Tak: po klikniÄ™ciu ikony rozszerzenia lub utworzeniu trackera rozszerzenie odczytuje widoczny DOM strony (strukturÄ™ HTML, tekst, adresy URL obrazów, hiperłącza) bieżącej strony produktu. Ten zrzut jest przesyÅ‚any wyłącznie do naszych serwerów w celu wykrycia ceny opartego na ML i odrzucany po przetworzeniu — na staÅ‚e przechowywane sÄ… jedynie wyodrÄ™bniona cena, nazwa produktu i adres URL

10Rozszerzenie przeglądarki — dodatkowe ujawnienia (Chrome Web Store)

Wyraźnie potwierdzamy następujące zasady Chrome Web Store:

  • Nie sprzedajemy ani nie przekazujemy danych użytkowników stronom trzecim, poza zatwierdzonymi przypadkami użycia opisanymi w tej polityce prywatnoÅ›ci (np. Resend do dostarczania wiadomoÅ›ci e-mail, Google OAuth do opcjonalnego logowania)
  • Dane użytkowników sÄ… wykorzystywane lub przekazywane wyłącznie w jedynym celu rozszerzenia — Å›ledzenie cen produktów w sklepach internetowych i powiÄ…zane powiadomienia. Dane nie sÄ… wykorzystywane do celów niezwiÄ…zanych
  • Dane użytkowników nie sÄ… wykorzystywane ani przekazywane w celu okreÅ›lenia zdolnoÅ›ci kredytowej ani do celów udzielania pożyczek
