gSnooze — Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 3, 2026

gSnooze for Gmail ("gSnooze") is a Chrome extension published by Southern SaaS. It adds a Send & Snooze button and customizable snooze presets to Gmail's web interface, powered by Gmail's own native snooze. This policy describes what data the extension handles — locally in your browser, and the one item it sends anywhere.

The short version: no Gmail API access. No mailbox scanning. No email content is sent to our servers. gSnooze works in your browser through Gmail's own interface. When you use Send & Snooze, it checks the subject of the message you just sent — locally, in memory only — to make sure it snoozes that same thread.

How gSnooze handles Gmail data

  • gSnooze runs only on Gmail pages (mail.google.com). To add its controls and operate Gmail's native snooze, it inspects the Gmail interface elements it interacts with.
  • gSnooze does not use the Gmail API and does not scan or download your mailbox.
  • When you click Send & Snooze, the extension reads the subject shown in the compose window and, after sending, the heading of the thread it opens — in your browser only, held in memory only, and never stored or transmitted — solely to verify it is acting on the conversation you just sent. It does not use message bodies, sender addresses, or recipient addresses for this verification.
  • Snoozed messages are handled entirely by Gmail under Google's privacy policy; gSnooze never receives a copy of them.

Data stored in your browser

  • Settings — your snooze presets (labels, schedules, times, and enabled state), your default preset, your "Keep weekends clear" choice, your button style, and your button color. Stored in chrome.storage.sync. If Chrome Sync is on, those preferences are synced by Google between your signed-in Chrome browsers; the developer receives nothing on a server. If sync is off, they stay in local Chrome storage.
  • Diagnostic run log — so the extension popup can show where a Send & Snooze run stopped, gSnooze keeps a local log of run stages and timestamps. It may include the preset label and target time you chose, which click method worked, and a plain-language outcome. It does not include email subjects, message content, Gmail thread IDs, or Gmail URLs. The log is stored only in chrome.storage.local in your browser, keeps a rolling cap of the latest 120 entries, is shown in the extension popup, and is never transmitted to the developer.
  • License — gSnooze generates a random license ID, a persistent identifier stored locally together with your trial/subscription status and trial or current-period end date.

Data sent off your device

  • License status checks. The license ID — and only the license ID — is sent over HTTPS to gsnooze.com to check your trial/subscription status (about every 12 hours, and when you open the popup). Nothing about your email is ever included.
  • Payments. Checkout is handled by Stripe on gsnooze.com. We never see your payment card details in the extension.
  • Support. The options page links to our Help & Feedback form on Google Forms. Anything you choose to type into that form is provided to us through Google Forms; the extension itself sends nothing there.

Data we do not collect

  • We do not transmit, store on our servers, sell, or share the contents, subjects, senders, or recipients of your emails.
  • We do not use tracking, analytics, or advertising SDKs in the extension, and we do not sell personal data.

Limited Use

gSnooze's use of user data complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Data handled by the extension is limited to what is necessary to provide its single purpose — sending and snoozing the message you are composing — and is not used for any other purpose.

Your choices

  • Uninstalling the extension removes its local data (chrome.storage.local) from that browser. Settings synced through Chrome Sync are handled by Google; use Chrome's sync controls if you want synced copies removed.
  • You can cancel your subscription anytime from gsnooze.com or Stripe's customer portal; the extension reverts to its locked state at period end.
