Bulk Email Finder Chrome extension Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2025

Bulk Email Finder (“the Extension”) is a Google Chrome browser extension that opens user-supplied URLs in batches, closes them automatically, and extracts email addresses that appear in the visible text of those pages. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This policy explains what data we handle, how we handle it, and the choices you have.

1. What information does the Extension handle?

Email strings on visited pages. The Extension scans the content of pages you choose to open and captures text that matches an email-address pattern. Captured addresses are displayed in the popup UI and stored locally.

Extension settings & progress. Batch size, open-time delay, custom regex pattern, and processing logs. These values exist solely to provide the Extension’s core functionality.

The Extension does not collect personal identifiers (name, login, address), browsing history outside the pages you open through it, financial data, location data, or analytics.

2. Where is the data stored?

• All handled data is saved with Chrome’s storage.local API.
• Data remains on your device.
• Nothing is synced to Google servers, transmitted to our servers, or shared with third parties.
• Removing the Extension from Chrome automatically deletes its stored data.

3. How is the data used?

Handled data is used only to:

• Display live progress while URLs are processed.
• Show a deduplicated table of email addresses.
• Enable you to copy or export the list to CSV.
• Remember your settings between browser sessions.

There are no secondary uses such as marketing, profiling, or resale.

4. Do we share or sell data?

We do not share, sell, rent, or otherwise disclose any handled data to external parties. The Extension contains no code that transmits data outside your browser.

5. Security measures

• Data never leaves the browser context, eliminating network-transfer risks.
• The Extension runs entirely from code packaged in the Chrome Web Store ZIP; it does not load remote scripts.
• Google’s extension sandbox further restricts access to other sites and files.

6. User control

• Clear history: Use the “Clear” button in the popup to delete all stored emails and logs immediately.
• Uninstall: Remove the Extension at any time via chrome://extensions; this erases all local data.
• Modify settings: Change batch size, delay, or regex directly in the popup—settings are applied instantly.

7. Permissions explained

Permission	Why it’s needed
tabs	Open, monitor, and close the temporary tabs that load each user URL.
storage	Save email results and your settings locally.
activeTab (Email Finder component)	On demand, inject the content script into the current tab when you click the icon.
scripting	Programmatically inject the email-finder script into pages.
Host permission <all_urls>	Allow the content script to run on any page you open so it can detect emails there.

The Extension requests no additional permissions beyond those listed.

8. Children’s privacy

The Extension is intended for general audiences and does not target children under 13. It collects no information that could personally identify a child.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect operational or legal changes. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
