Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Overview

SaveAs+ is a Chrome extension that converts images between formats (PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF) entirely within your browser. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect (none) and how the extension works.

Data Collection

SaveAs+ does not collect, store, or transmit any user data.

Specifically:

  • No personal information is collected (name, email, location, etc.)
  • No browsing history or activity is tracked
  • No image data is uploaded to any server
  • No analytics or telemetry is used
  • No cookies are set
  • No accounts are required
  • No third-party services are integrated

How Image Processing Works

All image conversion happens locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. When you right-click an image and select a format:

  1. The extension fetches the image data from the current page
  2. The image is drawn onto an in-memory HTML5 Canvas element
  3. The Canvas API converts the image to your chosen format
  4. The converted image is saved directly to your device

At no point during this process does any data leave your browser. The entire operation is performed locally on your machine.

Permissions

SaveAs+ requests the following Chrome extension permissions:

  • contextMenus— To add "Save as PNG/JPG/WebP/AVIF" options to the right-click menu
  • activeTab — To access image data on the current page when you explicitly right-click an image
  • downloads — To save the converted image to your device
  • host permissions — To fetch image data from cross-origin sources for format conversion

These permissions are used solely for the core functionality of the extension. No permission is used for tracking, analytics, or data collection.

Third-Party Services

SaveAs+ does not use any third-party services, SDKs, or APIs. The extension operates entirely independently with no external dependencies at runtime.

Data Storage

SaveAs+ does not store any data — not locally, not in Chrome's sync storage, not in cookies, and not on any remote server. Each image conversion is a one-time operation with no persistent state.

Children's Privacy

SaveAs+ does not collect data from anyone, including children under 13. The extension has no age-gated features or content.

Changes to This Policy

If we ever change this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Since SaveAs+ collects no data, significant changes are unlikely.
