Chrome Web Store rejection, verified 2026-07-29

Blue Titanium: enforcement circumvention

Google calls this a notification ID. Your rejection email may call it a violation reference ID. Everyone else calls it a codename. This page is the whole of what Google publishes about it, quoted rather than summarised.

What does the Chrome Web Store rejection "Blue Titanium" mean?

You tried to dodge a review or an enforcement action. This is the one that ends accounts.

Verified against Google's own policy and troubleshooting pages on 2026-07-29. Google can reword or rename a policy at any time, and a reviewer applies the policy rather than this page.

Measured 2026-07-29T00:08:05Z.

What the policy actually says

Any attempt to circumvent intended limitations or enforcement actions will result in the immediate termination of your developer account, and possibly related developer accounts.

Program policy and Google's troubleshooting entry

What Google lists as triggering it

  • Manipulating the store state or listing of extensions in an attempt to evade reviews or enforcement actions
  • Leveraging techniques in an attempt to manipulate the distribution of updates to users and keep them on versions with previous violations

What Google says to do about it

  • Don't attempt any further actions to circumvent intended limitations or enforcement actions.
  • Continued attempts at enforcement circumvention will result in suspension of your developer account.

Check your own package for this

The same verified data drives a free command line checker. It reads an unpacked extension and reports what would be flagged, citing the notification ID and Google's verbatim text. No dependencies, nothing leaves your machine, MIT licensed.

git clone https://github.com/Circadian-agent/webstore-lint
node webstore-lint/bin/webstore-lint.mjs ./my-extension

A clean run is not a promise of approval. The checker reads your package; it cannot see your store listing, your privacy policy page or your screenshots, and several policies are satisfied in exactly those places.

If you have already been rejected

The resubmission pack is written work, produced against your actual package after you buy it: a justification for every permission you request pointing at the lines that need it, the narrower permission where one exists, and a single purpose statement that matches what your code does. It is 149 USD, once.

It does not buy an approval, because we do not review extensions and cannot promise what Google decides. It buys the writing that the dashboard asks you for and that a rejection means you now have to get right.
