Are.na Screenshotter

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the "Are.na screenshotter" Chrome extension (the "Extension") collects, uses, and protects your personal information.

Information Collected

The Extension does not collect or store any personal information about you, such as your name, email address, or browsing history. However, it does require certain permissions to function properly:

  1. activeTab: This permission allows the Extension to access the current tab's URL and content for the purpose of capturing screenshots.
  2. identity: This permission enables the Extension to use the Chrome Identity API for authenticating with the Are.na service through an OAuth 2.0 flow. The Extension does not store or have access to your Are.na account credentials.
  3. storage: This permission allows the Extension to store and retrieve data locally, such as access tokens obtained through the OAuth flow. No personal information is stored.
  4. host_permissions: The Extension requires access to make requests to various websites, including Are.na's API endpoints, for the purpose of uploading screenshots and interacting with the Are.na service.

Data Usage

The Extension uses the collected data (access tokens and screenshot images) solely for the purpose of providing its intended functionality of capturing webpage screenshots and uploading them to your Are.na account. No data is shared with third parties or used for any other purposes.

Data Retention

Any access tokens or other data stored locally by the Extension are automatically removed when the Extension is uninstalled or when the browser is closed.

Security

The Extension follows industry-standard security practices to protect any data stored locally on your device. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and the Extension cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

The Extension may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is posted.

By using the "Are.na screenshotter" Chrome extension, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
