Privacy Policy
Last updated: 10 August 2026
In short: Clipper does everything on your device. It has no servers and does not send your screenshots or browsing data to us or anyone else.
What Clipper does
Clipper is a Chrome extension that captures a full-page screenshot of the web page you are viewing when you click its toolbar icon (or use its keyboard shortcut / right-click menu). It scrolls the page, captures each section, and stitches them into a single image you can view, annotate, download as PNG or JPEG, or export as a PDF.
What data is processed
- The page you capture. When you invoke Clipper, it reads the visual contents (pixels) of the current tab to build the screenshot, along with that page's title and URL — used only to label the capture and name the downloaded file.
- Your settings. Preferences such as capture delay, paper size, image format, and quality.
Where data is stored
- The most recent screenshot is stored only on your device: the image in your browser's IndexedDB, and small metadata (dimensions, page URL/title) in the extension's local storage, so the result page can display it.
- Your settings are stored using Chrome's extension storage. If you use Chrome Sync, Chrome may sync these settings across your own devices through your Google account — the same way it syncs other Chrome settings. Clipper never receives this data.
What is NOT collected or sent
- Clipper has no backend server and makes no network requests with your data.
- No screenshots, page contents, URLs, browsing history, or personal information are transmitted to us or to any third party.
- No analytics, advertising, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting.
- Clipper does not sell or share any data — because it never collects any off your device.
Data retention & your control
- Only the single most recent capture is kept; each new capture replaces the previous one.
- The stored capture is automatically cleared when your browser restarts.
- You can delete it immediately with the Clear button on the result page.
- Removing the extension deletes all of its stored data.
Permissions and why they are needed
| Permission | Why Clipper needs it |
|---|
activeTab | To capture the page in the tab you are viewing — only after you invoke Clipper. |
scripting | To run the measuring / scrolling routine on that page during capture. |
storage | To save your settings and the last capture's metadata on your device. |
offscreen | To stitch the captured sections into one image using an offscreen canvas. |
contextMenus | To add the right-click “Capture full page with Clipper” menu item. |
Clipper does not request broad “read and change your data on all websites” host access. It only acts on the tab you explicitly invoke it on.
Children's privacy
Clipper is a general-purpose utility and does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children.
