Overview
Hinglify is a Chrome extension that converts selected Hinglish or Hindi text into Hindi (Devanagari) and English. This policy explains what data is processed when you use the extension.
Data we process
- Selected text: When you click convert, the text you selected is sent to transliteration/translation services so the conversion can complete.
-
Preferences: On/off state, selection-button visibility, default
replace language, and a conversion count are stored locally via Chrome
storage.sync.
What we do not collect
- No account or login is required.
- No advertising identifiers or analytics SDKs.
- No sale of personal information.
- We do not build a browsing-history profile from pages you visit.
Third-party services
Conversion requests may be sent only to these providers, and only after you start a conversion:
- Google Input Tools (
inputtools.google.com) — Hinglish → Hindi - Google Translate endpoints (
translate.googleapis.com,clients5.google.com) — Hindi → English - MyMemory (
api.mymemory.translated.net) — fallback translation
Those services process the submitted text under their own terms and privacy policies.
Permissions
- storage — save your extension preferences in the browser.
- Host permissions — call the conversion APIs listed above.
- Content scripts on web pages — show the selection button and convert panel where you highlight text.
Children’s privacy
Hinglify is a general productivity tool and is not directed at children under 13.
