- Scope
- Operational events, not file contents
What stays on your device
The extension stores settings and workflow state locally in Chrome using the storage APIs: for example your download queue, popup preferences, optional license information, and whether analytics are enabled. When analytics are enabled, a capped history of normalized scan domains and counts is stored locally to classify later scans as first-time or repeat; it is removed when analytics are disabled.
What the extension reads from webpages
When you run a scan, the extension injects a short script into the tab (or tabs you chose) to collect links and related text already present in the page, similar to what you could copy manually. It does not upload page HTML or full page contents to our servers as part of scanning.
Optional analytics
If analytics are left on, scan events may send the full URL of the page you chose to scan—including its subdomain, path, query, and fragment—plus the normalized registrable domain, free or Pro tier, scan mode and outcome, rounded duration, aggregate result counts, and a local first/repeat bucket. Embedded URL credentials are removed. Other bounded operational events cover downloads, upgrades, reviews, and uninstall measurement. Analytics failures are ignored and never block extension features.
What analytics are not meant to collect
Analytics do not collect file bodies or URLs, page contents or titles, full browsing history, exported lists, clipboard data, passwords, form contents, license keys, or license email. Localhost, IP-address hosts, and Chrome-restricted pages are excluded from domain analytics.
How to opt out of analytics
Open the extension, go to Settings, and disable analytics. This also clears the registered uninstall analytics URL. Core scanning, filtering, queuing, and downloading continue to work with analytics turned off.
