PageCapture Privacy Policy

Full Page Screenshot – Scroll Area Capture creates screenshots from web content that the user explicitly chooses in the active Chrome tab. It provides full-page, visible-area, and scroll-area capture, PNG and PDF saving, and Clipboard copying.

Data handled during capture

When the user starts a capture, the extension temporarily processes the visible website content and page structure needed to identify the requested area, scroll it, capture frames, combine the frames, and restore the page. Depending on the page selected by the user, captured content may include website content, personal communications, or user-generated content. The current tab URL is read only as needed to determine whether Chrome permits capture; it is not stored or used in the output filename.

Local processing

Capture frames and generated images are processed locally in the user’s browser. The extension does not upload screenshots, page text, emails, conversations, form values, full URLs, cookies, authentication tokens, or browsing-history lists to a server operated by the publisher.

Local storage

Chrome Storage contains limited preferences and non-content state, including language, theme, default output format, filename timestamp preference, result-view preference, and neutral review-prompt state. During a capture, frames, PNG segments, and a generated PDF may be written to extension-private IndexedDB so long captures do not require every artifact to remain in memory. This temporary capture store is not shared with websites or a publisher server.

Capture result retention

Temporary capture artifacts are retained only for the time needed to complete the capture and allow the user to save or copy the result. They are deleted after completed-job cleanup, cancellation, failure, Result View close, or result-session expiry. Orphaned temporary artifacts are cleared when the local processing context starts again. Files saved by the user and images copied to the clipboard are controlled by the user and the destination application.

Sharing and sale

The extension does not sell user data. It does not share capture content with advertising platforms, analytics providers, data brokers, or other third parties. The publisher does not have a server that allows staff to view a user’s captures.

Advertising and analytics

Version 1 contains no advertising SDK, advertising interface, advertising network request, remote analytics SDK, or behavioral tracking. User data is not used for advertising, profiling, credit decisions, or lending purposes.

Permissions

activeTab is used only after the user chooses a capture mode and provides temporary access to the current tab. scripting injects packaged capture and selection code into that tab. downloads saves a PNG or PDF only after the user requests it, including deterministic multi-part output. storage keeps limited local preferences and non-content state. offscreen supports local image, Canvas, Blob, PDF, and temporary capture-artifact work. Copy to Clipboard is performed from the Result View during the user’s click with the browser Clipboard API, so clipboardWrite is not requested. The extension does not request clipboardRead, history, cookies, identity, debugger, or broad permanent host access.

External links and support

External Support, Privacy Policy, or Chrome Web Store review pages open only after the user selects the relevant link. Capture content and diagnostic data are not automatically attached or transmitted. If a user contacts Support, the user decides what information to include.

User choices and deletion

Users may reset capture settings from the Options page. Uninstalling the extension removes extension-controlled local storage through Chrome. Users control any PNG or PDF files they saved and any content they copied to another application.

Security

The extension uses packaged Manifest V3 code and does not execute remotely hosted code. It limits access to the active tab after a user action and releases capture resources after use.

Limited Use

The use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Changes

If the extension’s data practices change, this policy, the Chrome Web Store privacy disclosures, and the in-product disclosure will be updated before the changed practice is introduced. Material changes will not be hidden in release notes alone.

Contact

Contact the publisher at abcdejoji@gmail.com. The extension does not transmit the message or attach capture content automatically. Do not send private screenshots, passwords, authentication tokens, or confidential page content unless you intentionally choose to do so.
