Image Type SaverPrivacy policy
Images are processed locally. The extension converts the picture on your device and saves it with Chrome's download manager. It does not send images or links anywhere.
What the extension handles
| Data | Comes from | Goes to |
|---|---|---|
| The image you choose to save, and its web address | Your right-click or Save all click | Fetched by your browser, converted in memory, saved to your Downloads folder. Not uploaded, not stored by the extension. |
| Settings (quality, width, file name template) | You | chrome.storage on your device |
| Pro status | ExtensionPay (below) | chrome.storage on your device |
The extension runs no code on web pages except for two actions you start: on a blob: image it reads that one image from the page, and on Save all it lists the images on the current tab. It has no analytics, tracking, ads or crash reporting, and it loads no remote code.
Site access
The extension asks for no site access at install. If a site does not let other pages read its images, Chrome asks once, when you save such an image, whether to let Image Type Saver read images on websites. You can decline; the extension then reports that the image could not be read.
Payments (Pro only)
Pro is sold through ExtensionPay (extensionpay.com), which uses Stripe for checkout.
- When you choose to pay or restore a purchase, the extension opens ExtensionPay's page in a new tab. You enter your email and card there. The extension never sees your card.
- The check runs when you open the toolbar popup or the settings page, use Save all, or open checkout. A plain right-click save does not contact ExtensionPay and uses the last answer stored on your device. The first check creates the anonymous license key.
- To check Pro, the extension sends ExtensionPay an anonymous license key created for your install. ExtensionPay answers with your paid status, payment date, install date and the email used at checkout.
- ExtensionPay's library keeps that key and status in chrome.storage.sync. With Chrome sync on, Chrome syncs it to your Google account like any extension setting.
What is never collected
Images, image addresses, page content, browsing history, location and usage data. None of it is sent anywhere, sold or shared.
Deleting your data
Uninstall the extension and Chrome deletes its storage. Files already saved in your Downloads folder are yours and are not touched.
Children
The extension is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
Updates will be posted here with a new effective date. Any change that would send images or addresses off your device would need a new extension version and a clear notice first.
