Calendar Color Rules

A Chrome extension that colors Google Calendar events by keyword-based rules, entirely inside your browser.

Effective date September 2, 2026
Applies to Calendar Color Rules v1.0.0
01

Overview

Calendar Color Rules is a Chrome extension published by an independent developer. It lets you color events on calendar.google.com automatically, using keyword-based rules you define, plus optional manual per-event colors, a default color for unmatched events, and a focus mode that dims everything but a chosen rule.

The short version: the extension has no backend server. Everything it does happens locally, inside your own browser. This policy explains exactly what that means in practice.

02

Information we collect

We do not collect, transmit, or have access to any of your data. Calendar Color Rules does not operate a server, does not use analytics or crash-reporting SDKs, and does not send any request off your device on your behalf.

The extension never reads your name, email address, calendar guest lists, event descriptions, attachments, or location data. It has no mechanism to transmit anything to us or to any third party, because it makes no network requests at all.

03

Permissions we request

Chrome requires every extension to declare its permissions up front. Here is exactly what each one is used for:

storage

Used to save your color rules, manual overrides, default color, and focus-mode setting inside chrome.storage.sync — Chrome's own built-in storage, tied to your Google account and synced by Chrome itself across your signed-in devices. This data is never sent to us; we have no server to send it to.

host_permissions: calendar.google.com

Used solely so the extension's content script can run on Google Calendar's page, read the visible event titles to check them against your rules, and draw colored elements on top of matching events. It does not read your inbox, other Google services, or any page other than calendar.google.com.

04

Third-party services

The extension links out to two external, optional destinations. Neither is contacted automatically — only if you choose to click.

  • Donations, via Stripe. The "Support this extension" button opens a Stripe-hosted payment page in a new tab. Any payment information you enter there is handled directly by Stripe under Stripe's own privacy policy — we never see your card details.
  • Feature suggestions, via email. The "Suggest a feature" link opens a pre-filled draft in your own email application. Nothing is sent unless you press send yourself, and the message goes directly to our inbox — not through any intermediary.
05

Storage & retention

Your rules and settings live in chrome.storage.sync, which Chrome stores locally and syncs across your own devices using your Google account — the same mechanism Chrome uses for your bookmarks or browser settings. We have no copy of it, no way to read it, and no way to recover it if you clear it yourself.

Uninstalling the extension removes this data per Chrome's standard behavior for synced extension storage.

06

Children's privacy

Calendar Color Rules is a general-audience productivity tool, not directed at children, and is not knowingly used to collect information from anyone — children included, since no information is collected from any user.

07

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the update will be posted at this same address with a new effective date above. Since the extension's data practices are unlikely to change without a major feature shift, we don't expect frequent revisions — but we'll keep this page current if they do.
