1. Introduction
Welcome to the Privacy Policy for Photo Radar – Image & Screenshot Saver (hereinafter referred to as "the Extension"), developed and maintained by BinaraWeb (hereinafter referred to as "we," "us," or "our").
This Privacy Policy explains how the Extension handles information when you install and use it in the Google Chrome browser. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring full transparency about our data practices.
The Extension is designed to detect images displayed on web pages, allow users to save and download those images, and capture screenshots of the currently visible browser tab. All operations are performed entirely within your local browser environment.
Photo Radar does not collect, transmit, sell, rent, or share any personal information. The Extension only accesses images and screenshots that you, the user, explicitly choose to save.
2. Information We Collect
Photo Radar does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII). The Extension does not gather, store, or transmit any of the following:
- Names, email addresses, or any other personal identifiers
- Browsing history or browsing activity
- IP addresses or geolocation data
- Cookies, tracking pixels, or similar technologies
- Form data, credentials, or authentication tokens
- Financial or payment information
The Extension only accesses images and screenshots that you, the user, explicitly select to save or download. This access is temporary and occurs entirely within your local browser session. No image data, screenshot content, or any associated metadata is transmitted to any external server or third party.
3. How Information Is Used
The Extension processes data exclusively to provide its core functionality. Specifically:
- Image Detection: The Extension scans the currently active web page to identify and display available images within the extension popup. This scanning occurs locally in your browser.
- Image Saving & Downloading: When you choose to save or download images, the Extension facilitates the download process using Chrome's built-in download API. The images are saved directly to your device.
- Screenshot Capture: When you request a screenshot, the Extension captures the visible area of the active tab using Chrome's tab capture API. The resulting image is presented to you for download and is not stored or transmitted elsewhere.
- Temporary Preferences: The Extension may store minimal user preferences (such as UI settings) using Chrome's local storage API. This data remains entirely on your device.
All data processing is performed locally on your device. No information is ever sent to remote servers, external databases, or third-party services.
4. Data Storage
Photo Radar uses Chrome's local storage API (chrome.storage.local)
exclusively to store minimal operational data, such as temporary user preferences and extension
state information. This data:
- Resides entirely on your local device
- Is never synchronized to external servers or cloud services
- Is never shared with any third party
- Can be cleared at any time by uninstalling the Extension or clearing browser data
- Does not include any personally identifiable information
Downloaded images and screenshots are saved to the default download location configured in your Chrome browser settings. The Extension does not retain copies of downloaded files.
5. Third-Party Services
Photo Radar does not integrate with, rely on, or transmit data to any third-party services. Specifically, the Extension:
- Does not use any analytics or tracking tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Mixpanel, or similar)
- Does not integrate with any advertising networks or ad services
- Does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies
- Does not connect to any external databases or cloud storage services
- Does not make network requests to any servers other than those necessary to load images already present on the web pages you visit
- Does not embed any third-party scripts, SDKs, or libraries that collect user data
6. User Rights
Since Photo Radar does not collect or store any personal data, traditional data-subject rights (such as access, rectification, erasure, or portability requests) do not apply in the conventional sense. However, you retain full control over your experience:
- Uninstall at Any Time: You may remove the Extension from your browser at any time by right-clicking the Extension icon and selecting "Remove from Chrome," or through the Chrome Extensions management page (
chrome://extensions). - Clear Local Data: You can clear any locally stored preferences by uninstalling the Extension or by clearing your browser's storage data.
- Control Permissions: You can review and modify the Extension's permissions at any time through Chrome's Extension settings.
- Selective Use: The Extension only processes images and captures screenshots when you explicitly initiate these actions. No background data collection occurs.
7. Data Security
We take the security of your data seriously. Photo Radar is built using Chrome Extension Manifest V3, which provides enhanced security features including:
- Sandboxed Execution: The Extension operates within Chrome's sandboxed extension environment, isolating it from other browser processes and web content.
- No Remote Code Execution: The Extension does not load or execute any remotely hosted code. All functionality is contained within the locally installed extension package.
- Minimal Permissions: The Extension requests only the permissions strictly necessary for its core functionality:
storage,downloads,scripting, andactiveTab. - Local-Only Processing: Since all data processing occurs locally on your device and no data is transmitted externally, the risk of data breaches or unauthorized access through network interception is eliminated.
While no software can guarantee absolute security, the Extension's privacy-first, offline architecture significantly reduces potential attack vectors and ensures your data remains under your control at all times.
8. Children's Privacy
Photo Radar is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since the Extension does not collect any personal data from any user, regardless of age, there is no risk of children's data being inadvertently gathered or processed.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information through the Extension, please contact us at the email address provided below. However, as stated throughout this policy, the Extension does not collect or store any personal information.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the Extension's functionality, or applicable legal requirements. When we make changes, we will:
- Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page
- Post the revised Privacy Policy at the same URL
- For significant changes, provide notice through the Extension's Chrome Web Store listing
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy. Your continued use of the Extension after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
