Privacy policy

Statsify is a local-first Spotify listening statistics extension. This page explains what information Statsify handles and how it is used.

Information Statsify handles

On Spotify Web, Statsify reads only playback information needed for listening statistics: track, artist and album metadata; artwork URLs; duration, playback position and play/pause state; timestamps; qualified plays and early skips; and whether an event came from Web or the optional Desktop companion.

Statsify does not read or store Spotify passwords, authentication cookies, payment information, private messages, playlists unrelated to current playback, or activity on websites other than open.spotify.com.

Purpose

The information is used only to show your personal Spotify listening history, statistics, rankings, and derived insights.

Storage and transmission

Standalone browser history is stored locally in extension IndexedDB storage.
The optional Desktop companion receives events only through a local service at 127.0.0.1:43827 and stores them in a SQLite database on your computer.
Statsify has no cloud backend and does not send listening history to the developer, advertisers, analytics providers, or data brokers.
Statsify does not sell, rent, or share your data.

Permissions

Storage: local history and active playback checkpoint.
open.spotify.com: current playback metadata and state.
127.0.0.1:43827: optional companion connection on the same computer.

Statsify does not download or execute remotely hosted code.

Retention and deletion

Data remains on your device until you clear extension data, uninstall Statsify, or delete the local Statsify database.

Changes and contact

If data practices change, this policy and the Chrome Web Store disclosures will be updated before release. Questions and privacy requests can be submitted through GitHub Issues.
