Daily Practice New Tab for TOEFL® Prep — Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 10, 2026

Daily Practice New Tab for TOEFL® Prep is a free Chrome browser extension provided by Aidoss Academy, operated by AIDOSS VENTURES LTD (United Kingdom). It replaces Chrome's new tab page with a daily TOEFL practice dashboard: one short practice task, a study streak, a test-date countdown, a Word of the Day and a Tip of the Day. This Privacy Policy explains what information the extension stores, how that information is used, and the choices available to users.

In short: Daily Practice New Tab stores your settings and practice progress only in Chrome on your own device. We do not collect, receive, sell or share your data, and the extension makes no network requests.

1. Information Stored Locally

Daily Practice New Tab saves the following information in Chrome's extension storage (chrome.storage.local) on your device:

Your first name, if you choose to enter one, to show a personal greeting.
Your TOEFL test date, if you choose to enter one, for the countdown and the simple study plan. It is stored under a shared key name used by Aidoss Academy extensions.
Settings: theme, 12/24-hour clock, minimal mode, which task types appear, and whether to show Aidoss study offers.
Quick links you add yourself (a title and web address, up to 6).
Practice progress: which practice items you have seen, how many tasks you completed each day, recent wrong answers per task type, your streak, and when you dismissed an offer card.

Your theme and minimal-mode choice are also copied to the page's local storage on the same device so the new tab opens without a flash of the wrong theme. What you type into practice tasks (for example your Academic Discussion answer) is not saved. This information is used only to run your practice and show your progress.

2. Data Collection and Sharing

The extension does not transmit your settings, name, test date, quick links or practice history to Aidoss Academy or any other server. It does not use analytics, cookies or advertising identifiers, and it does not read, change or add anything on the websites you visit. It does not change your search engine or homepage. Nothing is sold, shared with advertisers or transferred to third parties. All practice tasks, words and tips are packaged inside the extension.

3. Read-Aloud (Text-to-Speech)

The Listen and Choose task and the Word of the Day speaker button use your browser's built-in speechSynthesis feature. The extension prefers voices installed on your device. If your browser or operating system only provides an online voice (for example some voices supplied by Google in Chrome), the short practice sentence being read aloud may be processed by that provider under its own privacy policy. No personal data is included in that text.

4. Chrome Browser Permissions

storage: to save your settings, practice progress, quick links and optional test date locally in your browser.
favicon: to show website icons next to the quick links you add, loaded from Chrome's own local icon cache. The extension does not contact those websites.

The extension replaces the new tab page, as declared in its manifest. It does not request access to websites, your browsing history, cookies or passwords. The “Open Chrome's default new tab” link only opens Chrome's own new tab page in the current tab.

5. Exporting and Deleting Your Data

Open the extension's Settings page (the gear icon on the new tab) and use Export my data to download everything Daily Practice New Tab has stored as a JSON file, or Reset all data to delete it. Uninstalling the extension also removes all of its stored data.

6. External Website Links

Inside its own pages (never on other websites), the extension may show one clearly labeled, dismissible card from Aidoss Academy that links to aidossacademy.com or library.aidossacademy.com, for example the TOEFL iBT 2026 Self-Study course. These links include campaign parameters (for example utm_source=chrome_extension) that show the visit came from the extension; they contain no personal data. Visiting those websites is separate from using the extension and is subject to the website's own privacy policy. You can turn the cards off in Settings. When the extension is uninstalled, Chrome opens a page on aidossacademy.com where you can share feedback if you wish; nothing is sent automatically.

7. Chrome Web Store Limited Use

Any use or transfer of information received from Google APIs will comply with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

8. Children

Daily Practice New Tab is intended for learners preparing for university-level English tests. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.
