Overview
The KJB Reader browser extension ("KJB Reader - SidePanel") is a companion tool that detects King James Bible verse references on web pages and displays them in a browser side panel. Your privacy matters to us. The extension does not collect any personal information, does not require an account, and does not transmit your data to any server.

Permissions and How They Are Used
activeTab: Accesses the text content of the currently active tab only when you click the extension icon or use the right-click context menu. This allows the extension to scan the page for Bible verse references. No page content is stored or transmitted.
contextMenus: Adds a "Look up verse in KJB Reader" option to the right-click menu so you can select text and look up Bible references instantly.
sidePanel: Displays the Bible reader interface in the browser's side panel so you can read and search verses alongside the web page you are viewing.
storage: Stores your preferences locally on your device (such as theme, font size, and sidebar settings). No personal data is stored.
tabs: Used to open the sidebar panel and to navigate to kingjamesbiblereader.com for extension updates. The extension does not monitor or collect browsing history.
Data We Collect
We do not collect any personal information. The extension does not collect, store, or transmit your name, email, browsing history, page content, or any tracking identifiers. No analytics or tracking scripts are included in the extension.

Data Stored On Your Device
The following preferences are stored locally on your device using Chrome's storage API:

Theme and display settings
Sidebar panel state
No data is synced to the cloud. You can clear this data at any time by removing the extension or clearing your browser data.

Internet Access
The extension fetches Bible verse text and search results as JSON from the KJB Reader API hosted on base44.app. These requests deliver Bible content to your sidebar and are not used to track or profile you. No user data is sent to the server.

Content Script
The extension injects a content script into web pages to detect Bible verse references. This script reads the page's text to find references like "John 3:16" and converts them to clickable links. The page content is processed entirely on your device and is never sent to any server. The extension excludes kingjamesbiblereader.com from content script execution.

Children's Privacy
The extension does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children. It is safe for all ages.
