Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 20, 2026

1. Overview & Commitment

Velocity Radar (operated under Hero-Apps, accessible at hero-apps.com) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how data is handled when you use our browser extension and web leaderboard platform.

2. Local-First & Zero Personal Data Collection

Velocity Radar is built on a local-first architecture:

No Personal Identifiable Information (PII) Stored: We do not collect, store, or sell your personal login credentials, private messages, browsing history, or IP addresses.
Local Storage: All creator cohorts, follower snapshots, and audit metrics are stored locally in your browser via chrome.storage.local or local browser storage.
Public Data Only: The metrics tracked (public follower counts, publicly visible handles, and public post URLs) are strictly public directory data.

3. Permissions Declared (Chrome Extension)

Our Chrome extension requests the following scoped permissions:

storage: To persist your private seed cohorts and rolling 7-day snapshots on your local machine.
alarms & notifications: To trigger local desktop notifications when an account you track crosses your growth threshold.
activeTab & scripting: To parse public profile metrics when you browse or click the harvest trigger.

4. Cookies, Analytics & Third-Party Services

Velocity Radar uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) on its public web platform to understand anonymous traffic patterns, monitor system reliability, and improve user experience. GA4 collects pseudonymous telemetry such as page views, referrer domains, and generalized geographic location without collecting personally identifiable information (PII). We do not run third-party advertising trackers, cross-site profiling pixels, or data broker integrations.

5. CCPA & GDPR Compliance

In accordance with GDPR and CCPA regulations, you have full control over your data. Because all data is stored client-side on your device, you can delete all tracking history and cohort records at any time directly through the Settings → Reset All Data button in the extension.
