Privacy Policy — Link Inspector

Last updated: July 15, 2026

Link Inspector is a Chrome extension that inspects URL components, identifies tracking parameters, and lets you remove selected parameters before copying the cleaned link. This policy explains how the extension handles data.

Data handling

• URLs are processed locally in the browser.
• No personal data is collected.
• No browsing history is collected.
• No website content is read.
• No URLs are transmitted to the developer or third parties.
• No analytics or advertising trackers are used.
• No remote code is used.
• No Chrome permissions are requested.
• No account or sign-in is required.
• The only external navigation is an optional, user-initiated link the user themselves may open (for example, opening the cleaned URL) — the extension never navigates or transmits data on its own.

How the extension works

You paste or type a URL into the extension's popup. Link Inspector parses it entirely within your browser using the built-in URL API, displays its components and query parameters, and lets you choose which parameters to strip. The result stays in the popup until you copy it or close the popup. Nothing is saved, logged, or sent anywhere.
