Privacy Policy – ScreenSafe Blur

Last Updated: 22 January 2026 

1. Introduction

ScreenSafe Blur is a privacy-focused Chrome extension designed to help users visually hide sensitive information on web pages during screen sharing, presentations, meetings, recordings, or demonstrations.

We take user privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains how ScreenSafe Blur handles data and ensures transparency for users.

2. Data Collection

ScreenSafe Blur does not collect any user data.

The extension does not collect, store, transmit, or share any of the following:

• Personal information (name, email address, phone number, etc.)
  
  

• Login credentials or passwords
  
  

• Financial or payment information
  
  

• Health-related information
  
  

• Messages, emails, or personal communications
  
  

• Browsing history or visited URLs
  
  

• Location data
  
  

• User activity such as keystrokes, clicks, or mouse movement
  
  

3. How the Extension Works

ScreenSafe Blur works by applying visual blur effects to sensitive-looking text on a webpage only after the user manually enables the feature.

The extension may visually blur:

• Email address patterns
  
  

• Phone number patterns
  
  

• Long numeric values (such as IDs or account numbers)
  
  

• Custom keywords defined by the user
  
  

All processing happens locally within the user’s browser.
No webpage content is read, stored, analyzed, or transmitted outside the browser.

4. Data Storage

The extension uses Chrome’s local storage API only to save user preferences, such as:

• Whether privacy mode is enabled or disabled
  
  

• Selected blur categories
  
  

• Custom keywords added by the user
  
  

This information:

• Is stored locally on the user’s device
  
  

• Never leaves the browser
  
  

• Is never shared with third parties
  
  

5. Permissions Usage

ScreenSafe Blur requests the minimum permissions required to perform its single purpose:

• activeTab – to apply visual blur effects only on the currently active tab when the user enables the extension
  
  

• storage – to save user settings locally
  
  

• scripting – to inject blur logic into the page after user interaction
  
  

• Host access – to allow blur effects on any website when enabled by the user
  
  

These permissions are used strictly for visual masking and not for data collection.

6. Third-Party Sharing

ScreenSafe Blur:

• Does not sell user data
  
  

• Does not share data with third parties
  
  

• Does not use analytics or tracking services
  
  

• Does not integrate with external servers or APIs
  
  

7. Remote Code

ScreenSafe Blur does not use remote code.

All JavaScript and logic required for the extension is packaged within the extension itself and runs locally in the browser, in compliance with Chrome Extension Manifest V3 policies.

8. User Control

The extension operates only when the user chooses to activate it.
Users can:

• Enable or disable privacy mode at any time
  
  

• Remove all blur effects instantly
  
  

• Uninstall the extension at any time
  
  

9. Changes to This Policy

If this privacy policy is updated in the future, the revised version will be published on the extension’s Chrome Web Store listing or associated privacy policy page.
