What data we access

Spare requests read-only access to your Google Calendar via OAuth 2.0 (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonly). This lets the extension read your calendar events to find free time gaps. Your OAuth token is stored locally in chrome.storage.local on your device only.

How we use it

Calendar data is used solely to compute free time gaps between your meetings within your configured working hours. All processing happens locally inside the Chrome extension — no calendar data is ever sent to any Spare server.

What we store

The following is stored in chrome.storage.local on your device only:

  • OAuth access token, refresh token, and expiry (to keep you signed in)
  • Your email address and avatar URL (displayed in the extension UI)
  • Your configuration (working hours, focus window size)
  • Focus stats (locally computed counts of blocked focus sessions)

None of this information leaves your device.

What we don't do

  • No server-side storage of any user data
  • No analytics, telemetry, or usage tracking
  • No selling, sharing, or transmitting your data to third parties
  • No access to email, Drive, or any Google service other than Calendar

Third parties

Spare uses the Google Calendar API, operated by Google LLC. Your use of Google Calendar is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. No other third-party services are used.
