What data it declares
The developer declares that it collects these kinds of data:
- Personally identifiable information such as name, address, email address or age

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
- Display notifications
- Read your browsing history
- Know your email address
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.
What it can reach
No site access is declared in the manifest, so it cannot read the pages you open on its own.

*://*/*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.

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