Subject: [PATCH] docs(site): privacy policy page for the store listing
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Chrome Web Store asks for a privacy policy URL; Ration's is simple —
no collection, local-only storage, optional per-provider site access —
and now stated on a dedicated page the listing can link:
https://devudilip.github.io/ration/privacy.html

+      <h1>Privacy Policy</h1>
+      <p class="updated">Ration — AI Quota Tracker · Last updated: August 2026</p>
+
+      <p class="summary">
+        Ration collects no data. It has no backend, no analytics, no accounts,
+        and no telemetry of any kind. Nothing you do ever leaves your browser.
+      </p>
+
+      <h2>What Ration does</h2>
+      <p>
+        Ration is a browser extension that displays the remaining usage quota of
+        the AI subscription services you choose to enable (for example Claude
+        and Codex/ChatGPT). To do this, it calls the same internal usage
+        endpoint each provider's own settings page uses, from your browser,
+        using the login session you already have with that provider.
+      </p>
+
+      <h2>Data collection: none</h2>
+      <ul>
+        <li>Ration transmits no data to its developer or to any third party.</li>
+        <li>There is no analytics SDK, no error-reporting service, no remote configuration, and no runtime dependency of any kind.</li>
+        <li>The only network requests Ration makes are to the provider sites you explicitly enable, solely to read your quota.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <h2>What is stored, and where</h2>
+      <ul>
+        <li>Your latest quota readings and your provider on/off settings are stored locally in your browser (<code>chrome.storage.local</code>). They are never synced or uploaded.</li>
+        <li>The <b>Clear all data</b> button in the popup permanently deletes everything Ration has stored.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <h2>Credentials</h2>
+      <ul>
+        <li>Ration never reads, stores, or transmits your passwords, cookies, or tokens. It does not request the <code>cookies</code> browser permission.</li>
+        <li>Requests to provider sites rely on the browser attaching your existing session automatically — the same way the provider's own settings page works. Where a provider's web app uses a short-lived session token, Ration obtains it from that provider's own session endpoint at the moment of the request, uses it in memory once, and never persists it.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <h2>Permissions</h2>
+      <ul>
+        <li><b>storage</b> — to keep your readings and settings on your device.</li>
+        <li><b>alarms</b> — to refresh quota readings on a schedule (every 5 minutes per enabled provider).</li>
+        <li><b>Provider site access</b> (e.g. claude.ai, chatgpt.com) — optional, requested only when you switch that provider on, and used solely to read your quota from that provider.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <h2>Changes and contact</h2>
