01Introduction & Zero-Knowledge Architecture
PantherCrypt ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your sensitive credentials and personal data through Zero-Knowledge Cryptography. This Privacy Policy governs your use of the PantherCrypt web application, desktop services, APIs, and the PantherCrypt Chrome Browser Extension.
"Zero-Knowledge" means that neither PantherCrypt, its employees, nor any unauthorized third parties have the technical capability to view, read, or decrypt your stored passwords, cards, notes, or credentials. Your master password and vault encryption keys never leave your client device in unencrypted form.
02Information We Collect and Process
A. Account Registration Information
When creating an account, we collect only essential authentication parameters: your registered email address (for security notifications and auth verification), cryptographic salt, and authentication proofs. Your plaintext master password is NEVER transmitted.
B. Encrypted Vault Data (Zero-Knowledge)
All vault items (logins, passwords, credit card numbers, notes) are encrypted on your device prior to synchronization. We store only encrypted ciphertext blobs (AES-256-GCM). PantherCrypt servers cannot decrypt or read your vault entries.
03PantherCrypt Chrome Extension Disclosures
In full compliance with Google Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies, we declare the exact usage of requested permissions:

- clipboardWrite: Used exclusively when you click "Copy Password" or "Copy Username" in the popup.
- host_permissions (<all_urls>): Enables password autofill across websites. We do NOT track, record, or transmit browsing history or webpage contents.
04Strict Non-Sale & No-Advertising Policy
We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal or vault data with third parties, data brokers, or advertising networks. We do not display ads or track your activity across the web.
