In short
Transport-Shaman does not collect your data. It has no accounts, no analytics and no advertising. Your settings stay in your browser. Information from a freight exchange page leaves your browser only when you click one of the extension's buttons, and then it goes only to the website that button opens. The only thing the extension does on its own is ask our website whether a newer version exists, and that question carries no information about you.
What the extension does
Transport-Shaman is a browser extension for the TIMOCOM and Trans.eu freight exchanges. It adds buttons that open the route of an offer in Google Maps or Transport Nomad, buttons that type a saved message into the exchange chat, and buttons that look up a company on websites you choose.
Data stored on your device
The extension saves only its own settings: the names and texts of your message buttons, the names and search addresses of your company buttons, and which features are switched on. They are kept in the extension storage of your browser. They are not sent to us or to anyone else, and they are removed when you uninstall the extension.
A settings file is created only when you click "Save to file" on the settings page. It is saved on your computer and you decide what happens to it.
Information read from the pages
On TIMOCOM and Trans.eu pages the extension reads, inside your browser only, the information it needs for its buttons:
- the loading and unloading places of the offer you opened,
- the starting place of your active search (used for the empty kilometres option),
- the company name and tax number shown in a company profile.
This information is not stored by the extension and is not sent to us.
Information that leaves your browser
Nothing from the exchange pages or from your settings is sent in the background. Information leaves your browser only as the direct result of your click:
- Route buttons. The places of the offer are put into the address of the page that opens in Google Maps or Transport Nomad, so that the route can be shown.
- Company buttons. The company name or tax number is put into the address of the search page you chose for that button. By default these are Google Maps, a Facebook group search and Pactus. You can change them or add your own on the settings page.
These websites are run by other companies and have their own privacy policies. Transport-Shaman has no access to what you do there.
Chat messages
A message button types the text you saved into the chat field of the exchange. You send the message yourself through the exchange. The extension does not read, store or forward your conversations.
Version check
When you open the settings page, the extension downloads one small file from https://www.transport-shaman.com/version.json. The file lists the version numbers currently published in the browser stores, and the settings page uses it to tell you when a newer version is available. The request contains nothing about you, your settings or the exchange pages, and it uses no cookies. As with any web request, the server of our hosting provider (Cloudflare) sees your IP address and browser type. We do not use this to identify or track anyone.
This website
The website www.transport-shaman.com only presents the extension. We do not use cookies, analytics, advertising or forms on it, and it stores nothing in your browser. It is hosted by Cloudflare, which, like any hosting provider, processes the IP address of each visitor in order to deliver the page.
Permissions
- Storage. Needed to keep your settings in the browser.
- Access to timocom.com and trans.eu pages. Needed to show the buttons on those pages and to read the places and company details described above. The extension does not run on any other website.
What the extension never does
- It does not use analytics, tracking, cookies or advertising.
- It does not load or run code from the internet. All of its code is inside the installed package. The version file is plain data.
- It does not sell or share data with anyone.
The use of information by Transport-Shaman complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
