Save as WDF — Privacy Policy

Effective date: 10 August 2026 · applies to extension version 0.1.x

The short version

This extension collects no data and sends no data, to anyone, ever. It has no servers, no analytics, no telemetry, and makes no network requests of its own.

What the extension does

Save as WDF has a single purpose: when you click it, it converts the page you are reading into a verifiable document (a .wdf package, or a standalone .wdf.html file with the offline viewer embedded) and saves it as a regular download on your computer. The conversion runs entirely on your machine, from what the page has already loaded in your browser.

Permissions, and why

• activeTab + scripting — read the page you are looking at, only after your explicit click on the extension. There are no host permissions: the extension cannot read any page on its own, and no content script runs before you ask.
• storage — one local flag remembering that you acknowledged the one-time privacy notice. Nothing else is stored, and this flag never leaves your browser.

What ends up in the document you save

The captured document contains what the page showed to you — including, if you were logged in, content personal to your session. That file is yours, on your disk; the extension shows a notice about this before your first capture. The document also records capture provenance (page URL, time, browser user agent, viewport size) inside the package, so recipients can see where and when it was captured. Nothing is transmitted anywhere by the extension.

Changes

If a future version ever changed any of the above, this page and the extension's store listings would say so explicitly before the change ships.
