This is the privacy policy for **CrawlRadar** — Can ChatGPT actually cite this page?. The extension page is at https://www.extensionshop.store/extension/crawlradar.

## Data collected

| Data | Optional | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Page content (read in memory only) | No | When you press Scan, the analysis script reads the current page's rendered DOM to compute the score. The content is scored in memory, the result is passed to the popup, and everything is discarded when the popup closes. Nothing is stored and nothing leaves your device. |
| Current page URL (read in memory only) | No | The URL of the tab you are scanning is used locally to request that same site's /robots.txt, /llms.txt and HTML. It is never stored, logged or transmitted anywhere else. |

## Never collected

- Personal information, accounts, emails or identifiers — there is no sign-up and no way to create one
- Analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or usage statistics
- Browsing history, or any activity on tabs other than the one you scan
- Cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB or chrome.storage — no storage permission is declared
- Scan results or scores — nothing persists between scans
- Data sent to any first-party or third-party server — there is no CrawlRadar backend

## Third-party sharing

None. CrawlRadar has no backend, uses no third-party services, SDKs, analytics providers, advertising networks or CDNs, and executes no remote code. The only network requests during a scan go to the site you are already visiting, for its own /robots.txt, /llms.txt and HTML — the same kind of request your browser already makes. You can verify this in DevTools → Network while running a scan.

## Encryption

No data is transmitted.

## Data retention

Nothing is retained. Scan results exist only in memory while the popup is open and are discarded when you close it. The score card image and fix prompt are produced locally and only when you click them — saved to your device or clipboard, never uploaded. If you paste that exported content into another application, such as a coding assistant, that content is then governed by that application's privacy policy rather than this one.

## Permissions

| Permission | Why it is needed |
| --- | --- |
| Active Tab | Grants temporary access to the single tab you are on, only when you click the extension icon. Used to read the page's rendered DOM and to fetch that same site's /robots.txt, /llms.txt and HTML — the inputs the citation-readiness checks require. Access begins on your click and ends with the tab. Because CrawlRadar requests no host permissions, Chrome shows no "read your data on all websites" warning at install. |
| Scripting | Required to inject the analysis script with chrome.scripting.executeScript when you press Scan, so the page can be read after the site's own JavaScript has rendered it. The script is bundled in the extension, contains no remote code, does not modify the page, and there are no static content scripts — nothing runs on any page otherwise. |
