iShoter ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the iShoter Chrome Extension ("Extension", "Service") collects, uses, stores, and protects your information.
By using the iShoter Extension, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
iShoter is designed with privacy as a core principle. We do NOT collect, store, or transmit any personal information, including but not limited to:
❌ Names, email addresses, or contact information
❌ Browsing history or website URLs you visit
❌ Screenshot content or image data (except locally on your device)
❌ Location data
❌ Device identifiers
❌ Usage analytics or tracking data
❌ Any other personally identifiable information
The Extension only stores data locally on your device:
Screenshots and Images: All screenshots and saved images are stored exclusively in your browser's local IndexedDB database. This data never leaves your device.
User Settings: Extension preferences (such as keyboard shortcuts) are stored locally using Chrome's chrome.storage.local API.
Temporary Data: When saving large files, temporary data may be stored in chrome.storage.local as a fallback mechanism, but this data is also stored only on your device.
All data stored locally can be deleted at any time through the Extension's interface or by uninstalling the Extension.
The Extension processes data only on your local device:
Screenshot Capture: When you take a screenshot, the image data is processed locally and stored in your browser's IndexedDB. No data is sent to any server.
Image Saving: When you save an image from a webpage:
The Extension may fetch the image data via the background script to bypass CORS restrictions
This fetch operation is performed only when you explicitly click the save button
The fetched image data is stored locally and never transmitted to external servers
No Background Processing: The Extension does not perform any background data processing, analytics, or tracking.
The Extension makes network requests ONLY in the following limited circumstances:
Image Fetching: When you explicitly save an image from a webpage, the Extension's background script may fetch the image data to bypass CORS restrictions. This is done only at your request and the data is stored locally.
We do NOT:
Send data to any external servers
Perform background network requests
Load third-party tracking scripts or analytics
Share data with third parties
All data is stored exclusively on your device using:
IndexedDB: For storing screenshots and saved images
chrome.storage.local: For storing user settings and temporary data
All data remains on your local device
No data is transmitted over the network (except when you explicitly save an image, as described above)
Data is stored using browser-native storage APIs with standard security measures
We do NOT share, sell, rent, or disclose your data to:
Third-party services
Advertising networks
Analytics providers
Data brokers
Any other external parties
You have complete control over your data:
Access Your Data: All your screenshots and saved images are accessible through the Extension's popup interface
Delete Your Data: Delete individual items or clear all data by uninstalling the Extension
Export Your Data: You can download any screenshot or saved image to your local device
