Privacy Policy for Webpage Markdown Converter

Overview

Webpage Markdown Converter is a local-first browser extension that converts webpages into Markdown. Conversion runs in the user's browser when the user chooses to convert a page.

Data Handling

The extension handles website content locally for user-requested conversions. This may include page text, page metadata, image references, hyperlinks, and the page URL needed to generate Markdown output.

Webpage Markdown Converter does not sell, share, or transmit this data to the developer or to third-party services.

Data Stored Locally

The extension may store the following data in chrome.storage.local:

• Conversion settings.
• Filename preferences.
• Appearance preferences.
• The most recent local conversion session and Markdown draft.

This data remains in the user's browser profile unless the user clears extension data or uninstalls the extension.

Network Use

The extension does not call external APIs and does not send webpage content, converted Markdown, settings, or browsing activity to a remote server.

Downloads and Clipboard

When the user chooses to download Markdown, the extension saves a .md file through Chrome's download manager.

When the user chooses to copy Markdown, the extension writes the generated Markdown to the user's clipboard.

Permissions

The extension requests activeTab, scripting, storage, and downloads to provide conversion, settings, and local save features. It does not request broad host permissions.

Advertising and Sale of Data

The extension does not serve advertising. It does not use, transfer, or sell user data for personalized ads, retargeting, interest-based advertising, credit decisions, or data broker services.

Limited Use Statement

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