Privacy Policy for Zoom for Instagram

Last updated: October 24, 2026

Zoom for Instagram is a browser extension that allows users to zoom, pan, and navigate through photos and videos displayed in Instagram posts.

Information Processed

The extension locally processes the content required to provide its functionality, including:

• Photos and videos displayed in Instagram posts.

• Overlaid links and tags.

• Carousel navigation controls.

• Interactions required to control the viewer, such as mouse clicks, pointer movements, mouse-wheel actions, and keyboard shortcuts.

This processing takes place exclusively on the user’s device and only while the extension is being used.

Purpose of Processing

The information is used exclusively to:

• Display photos and videos in the enlarged viewer.

• Provide zooming and panning functionality.

• Navigate between items in an Instagram post.

• Preserve the behavior of Instagram’s original links, tags, and controls.

Data Collection and Storage

Zoom for Instagram:

• Does not collect personally identifiable information.

• Does not collect passwords or authentication information.

• Does not access private messages.

• Does not collect financial, health, or location information.

• Does not record browsing history.

• Does not store photos, videos, or user activity.

• Does not use its own cookies, analytics, or tracking technologies.

• Does not operate or communicate with external servers.

• Does not execute remotely hosted code.

Processed content remains temporarily in the browser’s memory and is no longer used when the viewer is closed, the page is refreshed, or the browser tab is closed.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

The extension does not sell, share, or transfer user information to the developer, advertisers, data brokers, or any other third party.

Instagram content, browsing activity, and account information are never transmitted outside the user’s device by the extension.

Access to Instagram

The extension runs only on pages matching:

https://*.instagram.com/*

This access is necessary to detect the content selected by the user and provide the visible zooming, panning, and carousel navigation features. The extension does not operate on other websites.

Limited Use

Any information processed by the extension is used exclusively to provide its main user-facing functionality. Its use of information complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Third-Party Services

Instagram provides the content displayed on its website and may apply its own terms and privacy policies. Zoom for Instagram does not modify Instagram’s data-processing practices.

Zoom for Instagram is an independent extension and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Instagram or Meta.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

If the extension’s information-handling practices change, this policy and the corresponding Chrome Web Store disclosures will be updated before those changes are released.
