Data Collection:
- Reddit Enhancer does not collect or store any personally identifiable information.
- The only data stored are the settings the user enables.
Data Security:
- User settings are stored locally in the browser and are only accessible to Reddit Enhancer and are not shared externally.
- Reddit Enhancer does not use external servers to store or process user data.
Browser Sync:
- If browser sync is enabled by the user, synchronisation of settings is handled by the browser to any other browsers or devices the same user is logged into. Reddit Enhancer does not have any control over the sync process.
Required Permissions:
- Storage: Required for saving and restoring user settings. Reddit Enhancer does not have access to external storage or personal data.

- declarativeNetRequest: Required to redirect the user to their preferred UI if enabled. Also required to open an image directly on its own if opened in a new tab.
Optional Permissions (for Firefox, required for Chrome (Chrome does not support optional permissions)):

:visitedCSS pseudo-class would be applied to the post link. Reddit Enhancer does not read the browser history, nor modify it in any other way. This permission can be revoked in the browser extension settings at any time (Firefox only). - Downloads: "Add 'Download Video' button to posts" requires this permission to download post videos to your computer.
