Privacy

The best way to protect data is to avoid accessing or transmitting it in the first place. We only transmit and store data required to provide our services. Data from websites you visit never leaves your browser unless you tell it to.

Our Privacy and Security policy provides complete details on what data is accessed, transmitted, and stored.
Image

Hosting

Our web application is hosted in the United States, on Salesforce Heroku (Common Runtime). Heroku is built on Amazon Web Services. We also use Amazon S3 for hosting public media uploads (e.g., Marketplace screenshots).

Our Privacy and Security policy provides a complete list of our service providers.

Encryption at rest

Web application data is encrypted at rest with AES-256, block-level encryption.
Image

Encryption in transit

All internal web application traffic and traffic between the browser extension and web application is encrypted with transport layer security (TLS). You can check the encryption status with Qualys SSL Labs.
Image

Backup and disaster recovery

Web application data is automatically backed up and can be rolled back up to four (4) days.
Image

Vulnerability scanning

We run regular API and site vulnerability scans with Intruder. Our software dependencies are automatically scanned for vulnerabilities using GitHub's Dependabot. We use static analysis tools, such as GitHub Advanced Security and bandit  to continuously scan our source code for potential vulnerabilities.
Image

Web application monitoring and protection

The Web Application is protected by Datadog's Application Security Management. Datadog ASM identifies and blocks the OWASP Top 10 and business logic attacks in real-time.

We additionally use security headers, including content security policy (CSP) headers, to protect users from attacks. You can check our web application's score on SecurityHeaders.io.
Image

Identity and access management (IAM)

We support Google OAuth2, Microsoft OAuth2, and SSO authentication for authenticating with the web application. We encourage you to enable/enforce two-factor authentication (2FA) for your account/organization.

Enterprise administrators can choose to authenticate users from their email domain, or to limit access to a specific set of users. Additionally, enterprises can use role-based access control (RBAC) and group-based access control (GBAC) to control which mods users can view, edit, and activate.
Image

Authentication with other services

Private configurations for third-party APIs are stored locally in your browser. In addition to API key and token authentication, we support OAuth2 authentication via the browser's identity API.

Our framework provides fine-grained controls for what API calls are authenticated. See our documentation for more information.

For securely accessing legacy APIs that lack user access controls, we optionally provide an API Gateway. The credentials are stored encrypted in our web application and are only accessible to your organization's admins.
Image

Browser extension permissions

Access to your browser data is enforced by your browser's built-in protection mechanisms. Wherever possible, we request permissions only when you enable a feature that requires those permissions. See our Privacy and Security Policy for a detailed list of what permissions the browser extension requests, when, and why.

Our framework provides additional controls for what websites our extension can access and with which services it can authenticate. See our documentation for more information.
Image

Third-party review

We have completed our SOC 2 Type 2 with the guidance of third-party audit firm A-LIGN.

Additionally, we complete an annual independent penetration test and Google Cloud Application Security Assessment (CASA).

Each version of the browser extension published in the Chrome Web Store is reviewed by Google. See Chrome Developers: Frequently Asked Questions for more information on Chrome Web Store review process.

Additionally, we encourage independent security review via our responsible disclosure policy.
