If you're running Chrome, you can install Caret directly from the Chrome Web Store. You don't need to be logged into a Google account, but some features (like synchronized settings) won't work unless you are.
If you're a little paranoid about installing code from a walled garden (and who could blame you?), or you want to run the very latest version, you can also install Caret directly from this website by saving this file and dragging it onto your Extensions page in Chrome. You'll still get automatic updates on the "beta channel" this way. You can also clone the repo and install it as an "unpacked extension" from the Chrome extensions page, but then you'll have to remember to update on your own.
Like all good developer tools, Caret is 100% open-source under the GPLv2. Visit the GitHub repository to view the code, file bugs, or contribute yourself. Any help is welcome and much appreciated! You can also report bugs via the store support page.
The best way to ensure privacy is not to gather your information in the first place. I have no experience (or interest, honestly) in managing user data, so there is no tracking code built into Caret, and it never sends any of your information over the network. In fact, Caret requests no network access permissions from Chrome, so it's incapable of communicating beyond your local machine even if I wanted it to.
Caret does use Chrome APIs for synchronizing your settings between computers and checking for updates. Synchronized storage is linked to your Google account, encrypted according to your Chrome settings, and does not provide any personally-identifiable information when used. None of that information ever gets back to me.
Caret is written by Thomas Wilburn, with a little help from open-source contributors.
