Privacy Policy

PagePins is a Chrome extension that lets users annotate webpage UI elements and organize feedback for implementation work. Our priority is a lightweight execution with minimal data footprints.

What data PagePins stores

  • User-created annotation content, including note text and UI metadata required to correctly re-anchor that note on the same live page.
  • User preferences (e.g., toolbar theme and size).
  • User-approved site allowlist entries utilized to auto-activate the extension specifically on selected operational domains.

Where that data is stored

  • Raw annotation content and local UI configuration preferences are stored natively within Chrome's extension storage partition on your physical device.
  • URL string patterns intended for auto-activation are securely stored in chrome.storage.sync, which implies your Chrome Browser may synchronize those specific settings across your signed-in browser profiles via Google.

What PagePins does not do

  • PagePins does not sell, bundle, or distribute any personal information.
  • PagePins does not transmit annotation content to any centralized PagePins backend services or external databases.
  • PagePins does not retrieve or execute remotely hosted telemetry code.
  • PagePins does not observe or utilize generic browsing activity for advertising.

How site access permissions are utilized

PagePins leverages temporary access protocols on the active tab only when you intentionally initialize the extension interface. Should you explicitly approve persistent functional access for a selected site, PagePins persists that domain in an allowlist. We use this granted origin permission boundary solely to re-enable annotation UI layers on that exact approved site.

Data Sharing

PagePins strictly does not share, transmit, or leak securely stored localized annotation data to third parties as part of the extension's functional architecture.

Data retention strategy and user controls

Users are fully empowered to eliminate saved notes sequentially via the PagePins UI or structurally via removing the extension, which strictly purges all extension-managed localized storage according to Chrome's native extension lifecycle termination rules.
