Hush ("the extension") is a browser extension that automatically mutes, fades, or pauses audio playing in your browser while you are speaking, and restores it when you stop. This policy explains exactly what the extension does and does not do with your data.
Hush does not collect, store, sell, or transmit any personal data. Your microphone is analyzed locally on your device only to detect when you are talking. No audio is ever recorded or sent anywhere. Your settings stay in your browser.
When you turn Hush on, it accesses your microphone to measure loudness in real time (voice-activity detection). This processing happens entirely on your device, in memory, while the extension is running. The extension does not record audio, does not save audio to disk, and does not send audio or any derived data to any server or third party. Nothing about your speech leaves your computer.
None. Hush has no servers, no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking of any kind. It does not read, collect, or transmit the content of the web pages you visit, your browsing history, or your URLs.
Your preferences (detection mode, action, transition time, trigger threshold, language, and theme) are stored locally in your browser via the standard chrome.storage.local API. This data never leaves your device and is removed if you uninstall the extension.
Hush does not share data with anyone, because it does not collect any. No third-party services, SDKs, or trackers are included.
The use of information received by Hush adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a new "Last updated" date.
