What the extension sends
When you use SkipSlop, the extension sends a few things to our server: the platform you're on, the publicly accessible and visible content identifier, and if you report something, the reason codes. No personal data, no browsing history, no profile info.
If you mark something as a false positive, that gets sent too so we can fix our data.
What stays on your device
Your settings live in your browser's sync storage. We also keep a short-term local cache of recent checks so we don't hit our servers with the same requests over and over.
What the server stores
Our database is a list of publicly accessible and visible content identifiers with aggregate counters (reports, false positives). We don't track who reported what.
How we calculate stats
The Stats page shows purely aggregated data unrelated to individual users. Graphs are cached to optimize performance.
What we never touch
No passwords. No payment data. No login tokens. No personal info whatsoever. The extension doesn't even know who you are.
System Architecture & Security
The skipslop.com website is a secure, static shell. It relies on no complex server-side rendering or vulnerable CMS plugins. The underlying database is strictly protected and accessible only via the authenticated SkipSlop API. Writes are restricted to the official extension; direct external access is impossible.
Data Retention
Items with high false positive rates are automatically removed. You can also manually request removal via the Content Removal page.
