Privacy Policy for Article Grabber

Data processing

When you click “Grab article,” the extension temporarily processes the active page to extract:

• Article text
• Page title and URL
• Author
• Publication
• Publication date

This processing occurs locally within your browser. The extracted content is not sent to any server or third party.

File storage

Article Grabber creates a text file containing the extracted content. Chrome’s Save As dialog allows you to choose where the file is stored. The extension does not retain a separate copy.

Permissions

Article Grabber uses:

• activeTab: Temporarily accesses the current page after you activate the extension.
• scripting: Runs the article-extraction code on the active page.
• downloads: Saves the resulting text file to a location you choose.

These permissions are used only to provide the extension’s core functionality.

Analytics and tracking

Article Grabber does not use analytics, advertising, cookies, tracking technologies, or remote code.

Third parties

Article Grabber does not transmit information to third parties. It includes Mozilla Readability locally to identify the main content of a page.

Children’s privacy

Article Grabber does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children under 13.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated if the extension’s functionality or data practices change. Any revised policy will include an updated effective date.
