Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how the Chrome extension INST Stock Quick handles information.
Effective date: August 12, 20261. Overview
INST Stock Quick is a browser extension for quickly checking information about Japanese listed stocks while browsing the web. We are committed to handling information only as necessary to provide the extension's disclosed functionality.
2. Information the Extension Handles
The extension may transmit the following limited information to inst-flow.com when you use specific features:
- A Japanese stock code when requesting stock price or related market information.
- A Japanese stock code and your selected Buy/Sell vote when you choose to participate in the investor sentiment feature.
The extension does not require a user account and does not intentionally collect your name, email address, passwords, payment information, or other account credentials.
3. Website Content and Browsing Activity
INST Stock Quick can display its interface on web pages so that the tool remains accessible while you browse. The extension does not intentionally transmit the text, images, form entries, passwords, or browsing history of the pages you visit to our servers for advertising, profiling, or sale.
4. Local Storage
The extension may store simple interface preferences locally in your browser, such as whether the Stock Quick panel is minimized. This information is used only to preserve your interface settings and is not used for advertising.
5. Network Requests and Server Logs
To provide stock quotes, notices, rankings, fundamental information, and investor sentiment features, the extension communicates with https://inst-flow.com/. As with ordinary web services, our server infrastructure may process standard technical information associated with a network request, such as IP address, user-agent information, request time, requested endpoint, and security or error logs. Such information is used for service operation, security, abuse prevention, diagnostics, and reliability.
6. How Information Is Used
Information handled by INST Stock Quick is used only to:
- Provide requested Japanese stock information and extension features.
- Process and aggregate voluntary Buy/Sell sentiment votes.
- Maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the reliability of the service.
We do not sell personal information or use extension data for personalized advertising.
7. Sharing of Information
We do not sell or rent user information. Information may be processed by infrastructure or service providers only as necessary to operate and secure the service, or disclosed when required by applicable law.
8. Data Retention and Security
We aim to retain operational information only for as long as reasonably necessary for service operation, security, diagnostics, and legal obligations. Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used to protect information handled by the service.
9. Chrome Web Store User Data Requirements
INST Stock Quick is designed to use data only for its disclosed single purpose and related operational purposes. We do not use Chrome extension data for unrelated advertising, creditworthiness, lending, or sale to data brokers.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the extension, its data practices, or applicable requirements change. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated effective date.
