Privacy Policy — RecordKit

Last updated: May 18, 2025

RecordKit ("the Extension") is a free Chrome extension developed by 

Sympaweb. This privacy policy explains what data the extension does 

and does not collect.

────────────────────────────────────────

1. NO DATA IS COLLECTED

────────────────────────────────────────

RecordKit does not collect, transmit, store, or share any personal 

data, usage data, or any other information about you or your device.

Your recordings are processed entirely on your own computer, inside 

your browser. No recording, screenshot, audio, or metadata is ever 

sent to any server — including ours.

────────────────────────────────────────

2. NO THIRD PARTIES

────────────────────────────────────────

RecordKit does not use any third-party analytics, advertising 

networks, tracking pixels, or external services of any kind. 

There are no cookies, fingerprinting, or session tracking.

────────────────────────────────────────

3. PERMISSIONS — WHY THEY ARE NEEDED

────────────────────────────────────────

RecordKit requests the following Chrome permissions solely to 

perform its core recording function:

• desktopCapture — to display Chrome's screen/window/tab picker 

 so you can choose what to record.

• tabCapture — to capture audio and video from a browser tab 

 when Tab is selected as the recording source.

• activeTab — to inject the floating toolbar and drawing overlay 

 into your current tab during a recording session.

• tabs — to open the preview/download page after a recording ends.

• storage — to save your preferences (toggle states, quality 

 setting) locally between sessions.

• unlimitedStorage — recording files can be large; this prevents 

 Chrome from cutting off a recording due to a storage quota.

• offscreen — to run the media capture pipeline in a background 

 document, as required by Chrome Manifest V3.

• scripting — to inject the floating toolbar and webcam overlay 

 into web pages during recording.

• notifications — to alert you if a recording fails to start or 

 encounters an error.

None of these permissions are used to collect or transmit data.

────────────────────────────────────────

4. LOCAL STORAGE ONLY

────────────────────────────────────────

The only information stored by RecordKit is your in-extension 

preferences (such as whether microphone or webcam overlay is 

enabled). This data is stored locally in Chrome's storage API 

on your own device and is never transmitted anywhere.

────────────────────────────────────────

5. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

────────────────────────────────────────

RecordKit does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, 

including children under the age of 13.

────────────────────────────────────────

6. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

────────────────────────────────────────

If this privacy policy changes, the updated version will be 

published at this URL with a new "Last updated" date. Continued 

use of the extension after changes constitutes acceptance of 

the updated policy.
