1. Scope of This Policy
This Policy covers the data handling of Auction Korea Image Downloader only. The Extension has a narrow product purpose: helping a user download image assets associated with products displayed on supported Auction Korea pages.
Depending on the page structure available at the time you use the Extension, downloadable assets may include product gallery images, representative product images, product detail images, option or variant images, thumbnails, or other product-related image resources exposed by the Auction Korea page.
This Policy does not govern Auction Korea itself, the user's browser, the Chrome Web Store, external websites linked from Auction Korea, or third-party services that may operate independently of the Extension.
2. Information the Extension May Process
To perform its image-downloading function, the Extension may process a limited amount of information from the currently active Auction Korea page. This processing is tied directly to the feature you invoke.
| Information | Why it may be processed | Typical handling |
|---|---|---|
| Auction Korea page content and structure | To identify where product images appear on the page and distinguish image groups. | Browser processing |
| Product image URLs or image resource references | To preview, select, and download the product images requested by the user. | Feature operation |
| Basic product-page context | Where technically necessary, information such as a product title, item identifier, or current page URL may be used to organize image results or create understandable file names. | Purpose-limited |
| Your image-selection actions | To know which image groups or individual images you have chosen to download. | Session operation |
| Extension preferences | To remember settings such as download preferences, naming choices, or other user-selected options supported by the installed version. | Local storage |
3. How Information Is Used
Information processed from an Auction Korea page is used only to provide and support the Extension's user-facing image download functionality. In practical terms, this may include:
- detecting product images available on the current Auction Korea product page;
- grouping images by type when the page makes those distinctions available;
- showing the number of detected images or presenting images for selection;
- obtaining the image resource needed for a download requested by the user;
- creating practical file names or download groups from product-page context;
- remembering locally stored extension preferences; and
- maintaining the reliability and security of the Extension's core functionality.
We do not use Auction Korea page information to infer your interests across unrelated websites, determine your creditworthiness, target advertisements, or build a general-purpose browsing history.
4. Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect
Auction Korea Image Downloader is not designed to request or collect the following categories of personal information:
- your name, residential address, telephone number, or personal email address;
- payment card information or banking information;
- government-issued identification numbers;
- passwords or account login credentials;
- private messages or personal communications;
- precise geographic location;
- health, biometric, or similarly sensitive personal information;
- your complete browser history; or
- content from unrelated websites for advertising or behavioral profiling.
Authentication and cookies
The Extension is not designed to copy, export, sell, or store your Auction Korea password, authentication token, or login cookie. If you use the Extension while signed in to Auction Korea, the underlying Auction Korea page and image servers may naturally respond according to your existing browser session. That browser-session behavior is separate from the Extension creating its own account credential database.
5. Browser Permissions and Auction Korea Site Access
The Extension may request browser permissions necessary to perform its single purpose. Those permissions may allow it to interact with the active page, inspect page elements or resources, save extension preferences, and initiate downloads.
Where the Extension requests access to Auction Korea domains or image-hosting domains used by Auction Korea, that access is intended to support product-image discovery and download functionality. It is not intended to give the developer a general record of the user's web browsing.
The Extension should not use a permission for a purpose unrelated to the functionality described on its store listing and in this Policy.
6. What Happens When You Download an Auction Korea Image
When you choose an image and start a download, your browser may request the corresponding image file from an Auction Korea-controlled domain, content delivery network (CDN), or another image host referenced by the Auction Korea page. This request is necessary to obtain the image you selected.
The downloaded file is saved through your browser's download mechanism to a location controlled by your browser and operating-system settings. The Extension does not claim ownership of the downloaded image and does not grant any new intellectual-property rights in Auction Korea content.
Users are responsible for ensuring that their downloading and subsequent use of product images complies with applicable law, website terms, and the rights of content owners.
7. Local Storage and Retention
The Extension may store user-selected preferences in browser extension storage so that settings do not need to be reconfigured every time the Extension is opened. Examples may include image selection preferences, file-naming preferences, or other interface settings available in the installed version.
Such locally stored settings generally remain on the user's device until they are cleared, reset, removed by browser controls, or removed when the Extension is uninstalled, subject to the behavior of the browser platform.
The Extension is not designed to maintain a developer-operated server-side archive of the Auction product pages you visit, the image URLs you detect, or the files you download.
9. Chrome Web Store User Data and Limited Use
Any user data handled through the Extension is limited to uses that are necessary to provide, maintain, secure, or improve the Extension's disclosed single purpose: downloading product images from supported Auction Korea pages.
If information is received through Google APIs or Chrome platform APIs, its use will comply with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including applicable Limited Use requirements.
The Extension does not transfer user data for personalized advertising, does not sell user data to third parties, and does not use user data for lending or creditworthiness purposes.
10. Security
We apply a data-minimization approach: the Extension should access only the information and browser capabilities reasonably necessary to locate and download Auction Korea product images. Reducing unnecessary collection is an important part of protecting user privacy.
No browser extension or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely risk-free. Users should keep their browser and the Extension updated and should install the Extension only from an authorized distribution page.
11. Your Privacy Controls
Because the Extension is designed around browser-side processing rather than a developer-operated user profile database, the most direct privacy controls are available through your browser. Depending on your browser, you can:
- disable or uninstall Auction Korea Image Downloader;
- review or revoke the Extension's site-access permissions;
- clear extension data or reset locally stored preferences;
- change browser download settings; and
- stop using the Extension on Auction Korea pages at any time.
Where applicable privacy law gives you additional rights concerning personal information that is actually held by the developer, you may submit a request using the support or developer-contact channel displayed on the official store listing from which you installed the Extension.
12. Children's Privacy
Auction Korea Image Downloader is a utility intended for general product-image download tasks and is not directed specifically to children under 14. We do not knowingly design the Extension to collect personal information from children for advertising, profiling, or resale.
13. Relationship With Auction Korea
Auction Korea Image Downloader is an independent browser utility created to work with publicly presented or user-accessible product-image resources on supported Auction Korea pages.
Unless expressly stated otherwise by the relevant rights holder, the Extension is not an official Auction Korea product and is not sponsored, endorsed, certified, or operated by Auction Korea. "Auction," related logos, product-page content, and associated trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.
Auction Korea's own collection and handling of information is governed by Auction Korea's policies, not this Privacy Policy.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Policy when the Extension's functionality, permissions, data handling, legal requirements, or browser-platform requirements change. If a future version introduces a materially different data practice, the relevant disclosure should be updated so that users can understand the change before the new practice is used where required.
The effective date at the top of this page identifies the current version of this Policy.
