Why we need each permission

The extension requests only what is necessary. Here is exactly what each permission does — nothing is hidden.

activeTab

Read the page you're on when you click "Extract." Only activates on your explicit action — never runs in the background.

scripting

Inject the extraction script into pages during batch URL processing. Needed to load and parse each article you submit.

storage

Save extracted articles and your preferences locally. Data never leaves your device — it's all in your browser's local storage.

tabs

Create background tabs for batch extraction and identify the currently active tab for one-click extraction.

alarms

Schedule the automatic 24-hour cleanup of extracted articles, keeping your browser storage clean automatically.

sidePanel

Provide the side panel view so you can read clean text alongside the original webpage without switching tabs.

Host (all URLs)

Run the extraction script on any website, since articles can come from any news source. Only triggers on your action.

Privacy Policy

Last updated March 2026. This policy explains exactly how Article Extractor Pro handles your data — which is to say, it doesn't.

01 Data Collection

Article Extractor Pro does not collect any personal information. We do not track browsing activity, and we do not send any data to external servers. The extension operates entirely offline within your browser.

02 What is Stored Locally

Extracted articles — title, body text, source URL, and basic metadata (author, date, word count) saved in browser local storage. Automatically deleted after 24 hours.

User preferences — dark mode, font size, quote highlighting, and copy format settings. Saved locally so they persist between sessions.

03 Data Sharing

We do not share, sell, or transmit any data to third parties. No analytics tools, no tracking pixels, no advertising SDKs, no telemetry of any kind.

04 Third-Party Services

No third-party integrations or analytics platforms. The only external resource loaded is Google Fonts (for UI typography), governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

05 Children's Privacy

Article Extractor Pro does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. The extension does not collect information from any user of any age.

06 Changes to This Policy

Any changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
