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
• Authentication information such as passwords, credentials or PIN codes
• Website content such as text, images or links on the pages you open

What Chrome asks you to allow

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

• Read your browsing history
• Display notifications
• Read and change all your data on all websites

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 specific pages only: 1 site pattern.

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.

• <all_urls> every site

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.

2. 2026-10-12Asked for more permissions (20, was 14) (changed: site access, browser permissions, optional site access)
