Data & Permissions

What data BetterCampus collects

BetterCampus is a Chrome extension that enhances your Canvas experience. It collects a limited amount of data to provide its features — here's exactly what that includes and how it's used.

What BetterCampus collects

If you use BetterCampus without an account

In non-account mode, BetterCampus collects:

  • LMS analytics — stored locally on your device only, never sent to BetterCampus

  • Extension settings and preferences — stored in your browser

  • Limited technical information — like IP address and security logs, used only to deliver and secure the service

If you create a BetterCampus account

When you sign up, BetterCampus collects:

  • Account information — name, email address, username, password

  • Date of birth — used for age verification (you must be 13+ to create an account)

  • Optional profile details — school name, school type, graduation year (you choose whether to provide these)

  • User-generated content — themes, study sets, notes, and files you upload

  • Product activity — how you use features inside BetterCampus (used to improve the product)

Payments

If you subscribe to Pro, payment is handled by Stripe. BetterCampus receives limited transaction details but does not store your full credit card number.

What BetterCampus does NOT collect

  • Your general web browsing history

  • Your Canvas password

  • Activity on non-Canvas websites

How your data is used

BetterCampus uses your data to operate the service, improve features, and protect against abuse. Your data is never sold to third parties and is never used for advertising or marketing targeting outside BetterCampus.
