Rail Booking Autofill – Privacy Policy
Rail Booking Autofill ("the extension") is a Chrome extension that fills forms on the IRCTC website (www.irctc.co.in) with details you save. It is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to IRCTC or Indian Railways.
Information the extension stores
You choose to save the following in the extension's settings:
- Passenger names, ages and genders
- An optional mobile number
- Journey preferences: From and To stations, journey date choice, quota and concession
- Booking preferences: payment option, travel insurance and auto-upgradation choices
When you open the IRCTC website, the extension also copies the public railway station list (station codes, names and cities) that the IRCTC website already keeps in your browser, so you can pick stations by name in the settings.
Where it is stored
All of this information is stored only on your device, using Chrome's local extension storage. It is not synced to your Google account by the extension.
What is shared
The extension does not send your information to the developer or to any third party. It has no server, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Your saved details are only typed into the IRCTC website's own forms in your browser, when you open those pages, exactly as if you had typed them yourself.
What the extension does not do
- It does not read or store your IRCTC password, OTPs or payment details.
- It does not solve CAPTCHAs or submit bookings or payments for you.
- It does not collect browsing history or run on any website other than www.irctc.co.in.
Permissions
- storage – to keep your saved details on your device.
- activeTab – to run the "fill again" keyboard shortcut on the IRCTC tab you are using.
- Access to www.irctc.co.in – to fill the train search and passenger forms on that website.
Deleting your data
You can remove any saved passenger or detail in the extension's settings at any time. Removing the extension from Chrome deletes all information it stored.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published on this page with a new effective date.
