What data it declares

The listing does not link to a privacy policy.

This is the developer's own declaration in the Chrome Web Store. We cannot check it against what the extension does.

Reaches your browsing data or every site

Routine for an extension

Pages it runs its code on

It runs its own code on every page you open: the manifest declares a content script for all sites.

A content script is code the extension injects into pages matching these patterns. On those pages it can read and change what you see, whether or not a host permission is listed above.

What the store shows

The store shows none of its badges on this listing. Most listings carry none.

Has it asked for more over time?

This is the question a permission list on its own cannot answer. An extension that shipped narrow and widened later is a different proposition from one that always asked for the same thing.

The permissions this extension requests have not changed since we started watching it.

Who publishes it

Hisham Buteen. This listing has been in the store since 2022-03-19 and was last updated on 2026-06-16.

Similar extensions that ask for less
