NixVisuals Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 November 2026

This policy is for NixVisuals in Safari on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. NixVisuals hides images and videos on websites you choose. The developer of NixVisuals does not run a server for this extension and does not receive your browsing data.

What stays on your device

NixVisuals stores your settings in Safari's own extension storage on your device. That includes:

• Whether the extension is on, and which kinds of media it hides (images, videos, background images, and drawn logos).
• The websites you add to your block list or allow list, and whether each site covers photos, videos, or both.
• Display choices, such as blur, placeholder, or removed, and whether a tap or click on the toolbar icon opens the menu or toggles the current site.
• Permanent choices to block or allow one image or video. Those stay on that device.
• A temporary note that you asked to show media on the current page. That note lasts until you leave the page or close the tab, and it is not synced.

If iCloud is turned on for Safari, Apple may sync the site lists and the other settings above, except the permanent per-image and per-video choices and the temporary page note, to your other Apple devices as part of your Apple account's data. That sync is provided by Apple, not by the developer of NixVisuals. The developer cannot see it.

You can also save your settings to a file and restore that file later. That file stays wherever you save it. NixVisuals does not upload it.

What the extension sees on a page

Safari asks you to allow NixVisuals on each website, or on all websites. Where you allow it, NixVisuals looks at the page you are viewing and changes how images, videos, and some drawn graphics are displayed. If you turn on "Stop hidden media from downloading," or you permanently block or allow one image or video file, NixVisuals tells Safari which image and video requests to block or allow. Those rules are built on your device from your own choices.

This happens entirely in your browser. Page contents, addresses you visit, and the files a page requests are not sent to the developer or to any other party by NixVisuals. They are not saved as a browsing history. Choosing one picture or video, by a right-click on a Mac or a finger-hold on an iPhone or iPad, uses that spot on the page only for that moment, and that position is not stored. A permanent block or allow saves that file's address on the device.

What NixVisuals does not do

• It does not collect your name, email address, contacts, location, health information, or payment information.
• It does not read passwords, messages, or form contents in order to keep or share them.
• It does not include advertising or analytics.
• It does not track you across apps or websites.
• It does not sell or transfer user data to anyone.
• It does not use data for purposes unrelated to hiding and revealing media.
• It does not use data to determine creditworthiness or for lending.
• It does not download or run code from the internet. All of its code is inside the app and extension you install.

How long information is kept

Settings remain in Safari until you change or clear them. Use "Reset to defaults" in the extension's settings to clear site lists and permanent media choices. Reset before uninstalling if you want to clear these choices; removing the app alone should not be relied on to clear settings synced to other devices or retained in backups. You can delete exported settings files separately. Temporary "show media on this page" choices end when you navigate away or close the tab.

Children

NixVisuals is not directed at children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this same address and the date at the top will be updated. If a change affects how the extension handles data, it will also be described in the update notes on the App Store.

Support requests and this website

If you email support, we receive your email address and the information you choose to send, and use it to respond and resolve your request. Avoid sending browsing history, passwords, or exported settings unless needed. You may ask us to delete support correspondence, subject to any applicable retention obligations. These public pages are hosted by GitHub Pages. GitHub may process connection information, including IP addresses, to operate and secure its hosting service; see GitHub’s privacy statement. These pages contain no analytics, advertising, cookies, or third-party scripts added by NixVisuals.
