MECANO Parts browser extension: privacy policy
Last updated: 2026-11-04
MECANO Parts is a Chrome extension for auto repair shops. It looks up parts, prices and stock from the shop's own supplier accounts (NAPA PROLink, Hamilton Discount Auto Parts and Worldpac) and shows them in Shop-OS.
What stays in your browser
- Your NAPA PROLink, Hamilton and Worldpac sign-ins stay in your browser. MECANO uses the session your browser already holds, only to make requests as you.
- MECANO never asks for, receives or stores a supplier username or password. If a supplier is signed out, MECANO opens that supplier's own login page.
What MECANO sends to Shop-OS
Only the results you ask for: part numbers, brands, descriptions, picture web addresses, prices and stock. Prices are sent only when the signed-in Shop-OS user is allowed to see costs. Supplier passwords and session tokens are never sent to Shop-OS.
What MECANO does not do
- It does not collect browsing history, and it does not run on other websites.
- It does not sell data, show ads or use data for credit or lending decisions.
- It does not place orders or pay. It can add a part to your supplier cart; you finish on the supplier's site.
- It does not download or store product pictures.
Third parties
Your lookups go to the suppliers (NAPA PROLink, Hamilton and their data services) under your own accounts and their terms.
