What this extension does

TokoTranslate translates the Tokopedia.com interface into English or Russian and shows IDR prices converted to USD or RUB.

What data we collect

None. TokoTranslate does not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information. There is no account, no login, no analytics, no telemetry.

What the extension sends to third-party services

To do its job, the extension makes two types of network requests:

  1. Google Translate (translate.googleapis.com). When the extension encounters a piece of text that is not in its built-in dictionary, it sends that text to Google Translate to get a translation. The translated result is cached locally on your device for 24 hours so the same string is not sent again. Only the text being translated is sent. No URL, no user identifier, no other context. This is the same public Google Translate endpoint used by Chrome itself for its built-in page translation feature.
  2. Open Exchange Rate API (open.er-api.com). Once every 6 hours, the extension fetches current IDR-to-USD/RUB rates. No personal data is sent. Only the request itself.

What is stored locally on your device

The extension uses Chrome's local and sync storage to keep:

  • Your selected language (Off / EN / RU).
  • Toggle states (translate search, show price).
  • A cache of previously translated strings.
  • The most recent exchange rate snapshot.

This data never leaves your device, except as part of Chrome's normal Sync feature, which is controlled by your Chrome account settings, not by us.

Permissions we ask for and why

  • storage. To remember your language choice and cache translations.
  • tabs and activeTab. To detect when the active tab is on tokopedia.com and to reload that tab when you change the language setting.
  • host_permissions for tokopedia.com, translate.googleapis.com, open.er-api.com. To read and translate the Tokopedia page automatically, fetch translations from Google Translate, and fetch exchange rates.

We do not ask for permissions to read your browsing history, manage tabs, access cookies, or any other site.
