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.

What Chrome asks you to allow

When you add it, Chrome asks you to allow it to:

• Read and change all your data on all websites
• Read a list of your most frequently visited websites
• Read your browsing history
• Block content on any page

Derived from the manifest by Chrome's documented rules; the dialog's exact wording depends on your Chrome version and language. Chrome asks again if an update requests more.

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.

• <all_urls> every site

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 it may ask for later

Not granted when you add it: Chrome asks you the moment the extension requests one of these, and you can refuse. It may later ask for access to every site.

• Read and change your browsing history history
• Read and change your bookmarks bookmarks
• Show you notifications notifications

• http://*/* every site
