Privacy Policy — Bifrost Proxy Manager

Last updated: 2026/08/15

Bifrost Proxy Manager ("the extension") is a Chrome browser extension that lets users switch between system proxy, direct connection, the official Bifrost proxy, and custom HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 proxies. This policy explains what data the extension handles and how.

1. Data We Collect

The extension stores the following information locally on your device, using Chrome's built-in storage API:

  • Proxy configuration — proxy mode, custom proxy profiles (host, port, protocol), and your bypass list
  • Proxy authentication credentials — username and password you enter for a proxy, used to automatically respond to proxy authentication prompts
  • Bifrost account token — used to authenticate with the official Bifrost proxy service
  • UI language preference

We do not collect browsing history, page content, or any data unrelated to proxy configuration.

2. How Data Is Used

  • Proxy configuration and credentials are used solely to configure Chrome's network proxy settings (chrome.proxy) and to automatically complete proxy authentication (chrome.webRequest.onAuthRequired) when your browser connects through a proxy.
  • Your Bifrost account token is sent only to the official Bifrost service (dash.bifrostnetwork.cc and its proxy infrastructure) to authenticate your connection to that proxy.
  • Traffic routed through a proxy you configure (official Bifrost or custom) will naturally pass through that proxy server, which is operated by Bifrost or by the third party you chose to connect to — not by us.

3. Data Storage & Sharing

  • All settings and credentials are stored locally in Chrome's extension storage on your device.
  • We do not operate servers that receive, log, or sync your proxy credentials, custom proxy profiles, or bypass list.
  • We do not sell or share your data with third parties.
  • We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to the extension's core proxy-switching function.
