Privacy policy last updated August 26, 2026
This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare's privacy policy is available

The Indie Wiki Buddy browser extension links to and redirects users to external, third-party websites
not controlled by the extension. These websites have their own privacy policies and practices. Users
should visit these websites at their own risk.
Indie Wiki Buddy's settings and stats are stored in your browser's storage, both locally and in
sync storage
(if supported).
Indie Wiki Buddy can see which Fandom, Fextralife, and Neoseeker wikis you visit for the purpose of
redirecting you to alternative wikis and the BreezeWiki alternative frontend, if enabled. Your browsing
history on these websites is not stored or transmitted anywhere by Indie Wiki Buddy.
Indie Wiki Buddy can also see your activity on the search engines you have turned on filtering for. As
of version 4.0.0, only google.com is on by default. Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yahoo, Brave, Ecosia, Startpage,
Qwant, Kagi, Yandex, other Google country domains, and any custom SearXNG or Whoogle instance you add
are off until you turn them on in settings, at which point your browser asks you to grant access to that
site. This allows Indie Wiki Buddy to filter search engine results for Fandom, Fextralife, and Neoseeker
wikis. Your activity on search engines is not stored or transmitted anywhere by Indie Wiki Buddy.
Indie Wiki Buddy fetches its list of wiki redirects from
https://api.getindie.wiki/v1/all-data.json
every three hours. This endpoint is managed by the Indie Wiki Buddy developer and delivered via
Cloudflare. You can turn this feature off in settings, in which case the extension only uses the wikis bundled
with your installed version.
If the BreezeWiki redirect functionality has been enabled, the extension will pull a list of working
BreezeWiki instances from
https://bw.getindie.wiki/instances.json, which is
managed by the Indie Wiki Buddy developer and delivered via Cloudflare Pages. This is done in order to
provide the extension with an up-to-date list of working BreezeWiki mirrors. When you pick a mirror
other than breezewiki.com, your browser asks you to grant access to that site.
Your browser and the online store you acquire the extension through (e.g.
Chrome Web Store or
Firefox Add-ons) may perform its own data
collection.
