Overview

Peel is a browser screenshot tool. It captures images of web pages at your request and does nothing else.

Data Collection

Peel DOES NOT collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. Specifically:

How Screenshots Are Handled

When you capture a screenshot, the image is written temporarily to chrome.storage.local — storage that is local to your browser on your device. It is read immediately by the preview tab and then deleted. Screenshots are never sent anywhere.

Permissions Explained

Permission Why it's needed
activeTab Capture a screenshot of the current tab when you click a button
scripting Inject the element/region picker interface into the page
storage Pass the captured image from the background service worker to the preview tab
unlimitedStorage Large captures (full page, high-resolution displays) can exceed the default storage quota
host_permissions: <all_urls> The picker must be injectable on any page you choose to capture
