Nothing leaves your computer unless you press “Share online”. Recording, editing, trimming, cropping and exporting all happen on your own device. There is no account, no sign-in, and no analytics anywhere in this extension.
Pressing “Share online” — and only that — uploads a recording. At that point the following is sent:
| Sent | Where it goes | Why |
|---|---|---|
| The video file | Cloudflare Stream | To host the video behind your share link |
| Title, size, duration, format | This service | To create the link and show the video's state |
| Your anonymous device key | This service | So only your device can delete the recording |
The secret half of the device key is never stored as given — only a one-way hash of it is kept, so a breach of this service cannot be used to delete or claim your recordings.
Anyone who has the link. Share links are unguessable but they are not password protected, so treat a link like the recording itself. Every shared recording, and its link, is deleted automatically 24 hours after it was shared.
The only third party involved is Cloudflare, which stores and delivers shared videos on this service's behalf.
Both stay off until you switch them on, and each is used only while recording. The microphone is mixed into the recording's audio. The camera is shown as a bubble on the page, which means it appears in the recording the same way anything else on your screen does. Neither is accessed at any other time.
| Permission | What it is for |
|---|---|
tabCapture | Recording the current tab |
offscreen | Keeping the recording running when you navigate to another page |
storage | Remembering your preferences and the device key |
unlimitedStorage | Holding a long recording on disk without hitting a quota |
downloads | Saving an exported video to your computer |
scripting | Placing the recording controls on the page you are recording |
tabs | Knowing which tab is being recorded, and reopening the controls after a navigation |
alarms | Resuming an interrupted upload later |
| Access to websites | The controls have to be able to appear on whichever page you record, and stay there when it navigates. Page content is never read or sent. |
This extension is a general-purpose recording tool and is not directed at children.
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it.
