If you still have it installed
A listing leaving the store does not by itself remove the extension from browsers that already have it. If you still have it, you can see what it can reach and remove it in a minute:
- Type chrome://extensions in the address bar and find the extension in the list.
- Open its details. The site access setting shows where it can run; set it to run only on click and it reaches a page only after you press its icon.
- To uninstall it, choose Remove on the same page.
At a glance
Facts, not a score: an ad blocker needs every page and a theme needs nothing, so one number would be wrong about both. Each fact links to its detail.

- Authentication information such as passwords, credentials or PIN codes
- Web history the list of pages you visit
- User activity such as clicks, scrolling, keystrokes or network monitoring

What Chrome asks you to allow
From the permissions it declares, Chrome shows no permission warning when you add it.
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.

What the store shows
The listing is no longer in the store, so none of the store's badges apply to it now.
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.
Versions we have seen
- Version 0.2.0
Who publishes it
