Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 19, 2026
Calendar Clarity (formerly Calendar Color) is a Chrome extension that helps you focus on and organize your Google Calendar. It is operated by Human Quest (humanquest.net), which is the data controller for the purposes of this policy. The extension is built to be private by default: your settings live in your own browser, we do not run user accounts or a database of your data, and the extension only talks to an outside service when you turn on a feature that needs one. This policy explains exactly what happens.
The short version
- Your settings are stored in your browser (and, if you use Chrome Sync, synced by Google under your own account). We never receive them.
- The extension does not track you, show ads, run analytics on your calendar, or sell or share your data.
- Three features reach the internet, and each is off until you turn it on: AI suggestions, Google Calendar actions and colors, and opening Spotify.
- When you use a Google Calendar feature, the extension talks to Google directly from your browser — those requests never pass through our servers.
- Our marketing website (this site) uses a privacy-friendly analytics tool to count visits; the extension itself does not.
- Everything that ever leaves your browser travels over encrypted HTTPS, and there is no central database of your data to breach.
1. What we store, and where
Everything you configure — your color categories, color assignments, event visibility rules, focus-timer history and streaks, and which events you've ticked done — is stored on your device using the browser's extension storage. If you enable Chrome Sync, Google syncs that data across your devices under your own Google account; if sync is off, it stays in local storage on that machine.
- We do not have a server that stores your settings, and we cannot read them.
- Uninstalling the extension removes its local data from that browser.
- You can clear your settings at any time from the extension.
2. Data security
The strongest protection for your data is that we don't hold it. Calendar Clarity has no user accounts and no server that stores your settings, so there is no central database of your data for anyone to breach.
- Your settings stay in your own browser's extension storage, and — if you use Chrome Sync — in your own Google account. We never receive them.
- Whenever an opt-in feature does reach the internet, it does so over an encrypted HTTPS (TLS) connection: AI requests to
api.calendarcolor.com, and Google Calendar requests, which go directly from your browser to Google. - Access to your Google Calendar uses a token you grant through Google's own sign-in screen. That token is managed by Chrome's identity system, not stored by us, and you can revoke it at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- Because we never store or log your calendar contents or settings on our side, there is nothing about you on our servers to expose.
3. Optional features that use the internet
These features are the only ones that send anything outside your browser. Each is opt-in: the extension asks for the relevant permission the first time you use it, and nothing is sent until you take an action.
AI suggestions (AI Generate, Reorganize & Auto-categorize)
- When you click to generate, reorganize, or auto-categorize, the extension sends your event titles — and, depending on the action, each event's current color and which of your categories it is currently in, plus (if you typed one) your prompt and your category setup (the names, descriptions, and colors you created) — to our AI service at
api.calendarcolor.com. - It does not send event descriptions, guests, locations, times, or attachments.
- Our AI service uses a third-party AI provider, OpenAI (openai.com/policies/privacy-policy), to produce the suggestions. Your titles are used only to generate that response; they are not used to build a profile of you or to train AI models, and they are not sold or shared for any other purpose.
- To prevent abuse, our AI service records the IP address of the request to enforce a rate limit. That record is not linked to you, your Google account, or your calendar, and is used for nothing else.
- If you never use these buttons, no titles ever leave your browser.
Google Calendar actions and native colors
- If you enable Event Actions (duplicate, split, spread, postpone, reschedule, extend) or native color labels, the extension uses the Google Calendar API with an access token you grant through Google's own sign-in screen. These features create, modify, and move real events in your Google Calendar, and write color labels to them, only when you run them.
- These requests go directly from your browser to Google. They do not pass through, and are not logged by, our servers.
- We request Google Calendar access only when you first turn on one of these features, and we ask only for the access that feature needs — permission to act on your events, and, for native color labels, permission to define the color labels that let your colors and category names sync to the Google Calendar app on your phone and your other devices.
- You can revoke this access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
Spotify
- If you choose to play focus music, the extension opens
open.spotify.comin a new browser tab. That is an ordinary link — the same as clicking through to Spotify yourself. - We do not embed a Spotify player, connect to your Spotify account, or send Spotify any of your data. Once you are on Spotify, Spotify's own privacy policy applies.
Focus and ambient sounds that play inside the extension are bundled files that run locally — they involve no network request.
4. Our website
This marketing website (the pages you are reading now) uses a privacy-friendly product-analytics tool, PostHog, to count page views and understand which pages are useful. This is standard website analytics and is entirely separate from the extension — it does not see your calendar, your settings, or anything inside the extension.
- We use it only in aggregate, to improve the site.
- The extension itself runs no analytics and sends us nothing about how you use it.
5. Google API Limited Use
Calendar Clarity's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. In particular, information obtained from your Google Calendar is used only to provide and improve the features you enable; it is never sold, never used for advertising, and never used to develop, improve, or train generalized or standalone AI or machine-learning models.
6. What we do not do
- No tracking, tracking pixels, or behavioral profiling in the extension.
- No advertising.
- No selling, renting, or sharing of your data with third parties for their own use.
- No user accounts and no central database of your calendar or settings.
7. Permissions we request, and why
- Storage — to save your settings on your device and, optionally, via Chrome Sync.
- Access to the open Google Calendar tab — to apply your colors and visibility rules, and to read the visible event titles you ask to auto-categorize. The extension runs only on
calendar.google.com. - Identity and Google Calendar access (optional) — requested only if you enable Event Actions or native color labels, so the extension can act on your events through the Google Calendar API on your behalf.
- Access to our AI service (optional) — permission to send requests to
api.calendarcolor.com, requested only if you use an AI feature.
8. Third-party services
Depending on which features you use and how you reach us, your activity may involve these services, each governed by its own privacy policy:
- Google (Chrome Sync and the Google Calendar API) — policies.google.com/privacy.
- OpenAI, the AI provider behind our AI service at
api.calendarcolor.com, which generates suggestions from your event titles — openai.com/policies/privacy-policy. - Spotify, if you open it — spotify.com/legal/privacy-policy.
- PostHog, which provides analytics for this website — posthog.com/privacy.
9. Your rights, choices and data retention
Because we don't hold accounts or a database of your settings, most control sits with you directly:
- Uninstall the extension to remove its local data from that browser.
- Turn Chrome Sync off, or clear synced data, from your Google account.
- Revoke the extension's Google Calendar access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- Simply avoid the AI and Google Calendar features if you prefer nothing to leave your browser at all.
- Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you (for example, GDPR or CCPA rights). The opt-in features rely on your consent, which you can withdraw at any time by not using them. To make a request, email us at the address below and we'll respond within a reasonable time.
10. Children's privacy
Calendar Clarity is a general-audience productivity tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
11. Updates to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the extension or for legal or operational reasons. Material changes will be noted here with a new “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, on the Chrome Web Store listing.
