What Chrome asks you to allow
When you add it, Chrome asks you to allow it to:
- Read and change your data on web.whatsapp.com and licenze.pianoweb.eu
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
Specific sites only: 2 match patterns.
https://web.whatsapp.com/*only web.whatsapp.comhttps://licenze.pianoweb.eu/*only licenze.pianoweb.eu

Pages it runs its code on
It runs its own code on specific pages only: 1 site pattern.
https://web.whatsapp.com/*only web.whatsapp.com
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.
