1. Overview
RepTrack ("we", "our", "the extension") is a Chrome browser extension built for Canadian immigration consultants. This privacy policy explains what data RepTrack accesses, how it is used, and what is never collected.
RepTrack is operated by Newton Immigration. If you have any questions about this policy please contact us at support@reptrack.ca.
2. What RepTrack accesses
RepTrack accesses the following in order to function:
- IRCC representative portal pages — RepTrack reads your IRCC portal application list and individual application dashboard pages to detect new messages. This data is processed locally in your browser and is never sent to our servers.
- PDF files from the IRCC portal — RepTrack downloads PDF letter files from the IRCC portal directly to your computer's Downloads folder. These files are never uploaded to or stored on our servers.
- Your license key — RepTrack stores your license key locally in Chrome's storage to keep you logged in. The license key is sent to our licensing server (Google Apps Script) only to verify it is valid.
- Downloaded message IDs — RepTrack stores a list of previously downloaded message IDs locally in Chrome's storage to prevent duplicate downloads. This list never leaves your computer.
3. What RepTrack does NOT collect
RepTrack does not collect, store, transmit or share any of the following:
- Client names, UCI numbers, or application numbers
- Message content or PDF file contents
- Your IRCC login credentials
- Browsing history or activity outside the IRCC portal
- IP addresses or location data
- Personal identifiable information of any kind
- Financial or payment information
4. Data storage
All data used by RepTrack is stored locally on your computer using Chrome's built-in storage API. This includes your license key and the list of downloaded message IDs. This data never leaves your computer except for license key validation as described above.
PDF files downloaded by RepTrack are saved to your computer's Downloads folder. RepTrack does not upload these files anywhere.
5. License validation
When you activate RepTrack with a license key, the extension sends your license key to our licensing server (hosted on Google Apps Script) to verify it is valid and active. No other information is sent. The server responds with your firm name and license expiry date only.

- Google Apps Script — used for license key validation. Subject to Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
