Effective date: March 12, 2026

Summary: PageSpy instantly reveals trackers, cookies, network requests, tech stack, security issues, and browser storage on any website you visit. The extension does not collect any data, does not transmit anything outside your browser, and all scanning happens entirely on your device.1) What this extension does
PageSpy scans the active browser tab when you open the popup and displays a full privacy and security report including: third-party trackers, cookie details (first-party vs third-party, security flags), network requests, detected tech stack, security header checks, and localStorage/sessionStorage contents. Every scan runs 100% locally in your browser with no external connections.2) Data we collect
We do not collect any personal data. PageSpy does not collect, transmit, or store:
- Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or identifiers
- Passwords or authentication information
- Financial, health, location, or browsing history data
- URLs, hostnames, or page content you scan
- Cookies, network requests, or storage data observed during a scan
- Any user activity, analytics, or tracking data3) How scanning works
When you open the PageSpy popup, the extension reads cookies, network requests, page scripts, and browser storage on your active tab only. This data is displayed directly to you inside the popup. It is never sent to any server, never written to remote storage, and never shared with any third party. Scan results are temporarily held in memory and cleared when the popup closes.4) Permissions
PageSpy requests the following Chrome permissions, each strictly necessary:- cookies — reads cookies on the active tab to show first-party vs third-party cookies and their security flags
- storage — saves your display preferences (e.g. theme) locally on your device only
- tabs — reads the active tab URL and title to identify which page is being scanned
- scripting — injects a content script to detect tech stack, read localStorage/sessionStorage, and intercept network calls at page level
- webRequest — observes network requests made by the active tab to identify third-party domains and known trackers
- webNavigation — detects when a page is fully loaded before initiating a scan for accurate results
- host permissions (all URLs) — required because users can open PageSpy on any website. Access is only activated when the user explicitly opens the popup. No passive or background data collection occurs.5) Tracker detection
PageSpy uses a locally bundled tracker list to identify known tracking domains. This list is packaged with the extension and does not require any network request to function. It is never updated remotely or fetched from an external server.6) Storage
PageSpy uses chrome.storage.local solely to save user preferences such as theme settings. No scan data, cookie data, URLs, or personal information is ever written to storage. Temporary page scan data is automatically cleared after 24 hours.7) Third-party services
PageSpy does not integrate any third-party analytics (Google Analytics, Firebase, Mixpanel, etc.) and does not send usage events, telemetry, or any data to third parties.Note: The Chrome Web Store may show aggregate installation and usage metrics in the developer dashboard. This is provided by Google and is entirely separate from the extension's own behavior.8) Remote code
PageSpy does not load remote JavaScript or external scripts. All scanning logic, tracker lists, and UI are packaged locally with the extension. PageSpy works completely offline.9) Data sharing, selling, and transfers
We do not sell user data. We do not transfer user data to third parties. Since PageSpy does not collect any personal data, there is no data to share, sell, or transfer.10) Security
All scanning and analysis happens locally on your device. Cookies, network requests, and storage contents you view through PageSpy remain entirely private. No information is sent to external servers at any point.11) Children's privacy
PageSpy is not designed to collect data from anyone, including children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children or any users.12) Changes to this policy
If we change PageSpy in a way that affects privacy (for example, adding analytics, cloud sync, or external network requests), we will update this policy and the Chrome Web Store disclosures. The "Effective date" at the top will reflect the latest version.Questions? Contact us at [email protected].
