Link Finder
This policy covers Link Finder only (version 1.0.7 at the time of writing). Our other products have their own, because they do different things with different data.
Nothing leaves your machine.
Link Finder sends no data to us and no data to anyone else. It has no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting and no account. Your settings are kept by the browser, on your computer, and are removed when you uninstall the extension.
We therefore hold no personal information about you and could not produce any if asked. There is nothing to export, and nothing to delete beyond uninstalling.
Chrome shows you a list of permissions when you install anything. Here is what Link Finder asks for and why, in the same words the manifest uses.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
activeTab | Act on the page you are currently looking at, only when you invoke the extension. |
scripting | Run its own code inside the page you are viewing, to read or mark up what is on screen. |
downloads | Save files to your Downloads folder. |
downloads.open | Open a file it has just saved. |
storage | Save your settings and preferences in the browser, on your own machine. |
tabs | See the address and title of your open tabs, so the extension knows which page you mean. |
contextMenus | Add its own entries to the browser right-click menu. |
alarms | Schedule its own periodic checks while the browser is running. |
Sites it can run on
| Pattern | What that means |
|---|---|
<all_urls> | Every site you visit — the extension is designed to work anywhere, so it cannot name a shorter list. |
Uninstalling the extension removes its stored settings with it. You do not need to contact us first, and there is no account left behind.
If you would like something explained or corrected, email [email protected]. If you think this page is wrong about what the product does, say so plainly and we will fix the page or the product.
If a future version of Link Finder starts collecting or sending something it does not today, this page changes before that version ships, and the change is described here rather than quietly folded in.
Sitewide terms are covered by our terms of use, and the website's own privacy notice is at /privacy.html.
