We don't collect anything.
Save to Image is a local-only Chrome extension. It does not run a server, does not send telemetry, and does not ship your data anywhere. That's not a marketing line — it's the architecture.
What the extension does
- Fetches images you right-click — directly from the page where you clicked, converts them with your browser's built-in canvas, and hands the result to Chrome's download manager.
- Captures pages you ask it to — via Chrome's
captureVisibleTabAPI. Screenshots never leave your machine. - Remembers your preferences — default format,
quality, "ask where to save" — via
chrome.storage.sync, which Google syncs across your own signed-in Chrome instances. We never see it.
What we don't do
- No analytics. No third-party scripts. No pixels. No fingerprinting.
- No account, no login, no email capture.
- No server. There is no "save-to-image.com/api" — the domain hosts the marketing page and nothing else.
- No selling, renting, or sharing of any data (we don't have any to sell).
Permissions, plainly
- Active tab only
-
The extension uses Chrome's
activeTabpermission — access to the current tab is granted only when you explicitly invoke a command (right-click menu or ⌘⇧S), and is revoked when you navigate away. No broad access to your browsing. - Downloads
- Writes the converted image to your Downloads folder.
- Storage
- Stores your default format, quality, and "ask where to save" toggle via Chrome's own sync storage.
- Context menus & scripting
- Adds the right-click menu and lets the extension run its own bundled code in the active tab to fetch and convert images, or scroll the page for full-page screenshots.
