Alice Wallet

About

### Name
Alice Wallet

### Summary 
Hot wallet for Alice Protocol. Sign in with Alice, view your balance, manage accounts. Your keys are encrypted and never leave your device.

### Description
Alice Wallet is an open-source **hot wallet** browser extension for Alice
Protocol. It is built on the audited polkadot-js/extension account engine — the
same keystore and signing architecture used by millions of Substrate users —
pinned to a single chain: Alice.

**What it does**
- **Sign in with Alice** — log in to aliceprotocol.org and Alice dapps with one
  click, using the standard message-signing flow. No passwords for sites.
- **Create or import accounts** — generate a new 12-word recovery phrase, or
  import an existing BIP39 mnemonic or raw seed. Addresses use the Alice format.
- **View balances** — see your ALICE balance, read directly from the Alice
  network over an encrypted connection.
- **Encrypted on-device storage** — your private keys are encrypted and stored
  only in your browser. They are never uploaded anywhere.

**Hot wallet — by design**
Alice Wallet is meant for logging in and small, everyday amounts. For serious
holdings, use the **Alice Desktop Wallet**, which runs an embedded full node and
verifies the chain itself. Sending ALICE is done from the desktop wallet; this
extension is for login, balances, and account management.

**Security**
- Keys never leave your device. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking.
- The extension talks to exactly one network endpoint and refuses to operate if
  the chain's identity (genesis hash) does not match Alice — it fails closed.
- Minimal permissions: local storage and tab awareness only. No broad website
  access; the sign-in script runs only on aliceprotocol.org.

Open source. Built on polkadot-js/extension.

### Category
Functional / Developer Tools (crypto wallet)

### Permission justifications (for the dashboard "Permissions" tab)
- **storage** — store your encrypted accounts and settings locally in the browser.
- **tabs** — show the count of pending sign requests on the toolbar icon and
  route a sign-in request back to the tab that asked for it. We do not read tab
  contents of arbitrary sites.
- **Host access** — none requested. The "Sign in with Alice" content script is
  declared only for `https://aliceprotocol.org/*`.

### Privacy disclosure (required for wallets)
- **Does this item collect user data?** No.
- Keys, recovery phrases, and account names are encrypted and stored only on the
  user's device (chrome.storage.local). Nothing is transmitted to us or any
  third party. There is no analytics, no telemetry, and no remote code. The only
  network connection is to the Alice RPC endpoint (wss://rpc.aliceprotocol.org)
  to read on-chain balances and submit user-authorized signatures.
- Single purpose: a wallet/signer for the Alice Protocol network.
