This may include:
- your personal API token
- whether guest token mode is enabled
- your selected upload host
- theme preference
- premium/license state
- license information such as license key, start date, and expiry date
Because this data is stored using Chrome sync storage, it may be synced by Google across browsers signed into the same Chrome profile, subject to your Chrome account settings.
Stored in Chrome local storage
This may include:
- recent upload links
- the last right-clicked image URL
- whether the options page has already been opened after installation

- attaching optional title, description, and tags
- opening the uploaded image link after a successful upload
- saving your preferences
- showing recent uploads
- verifying premium license information
- opening checkout or licensing pages when you choose to use premium-related features
6. When data is sent over the network
The extension sends data only when required for the feature you use.
Upload requests
When you upload an image, the extension may send:
- the selected image or fetched image binary
- your API token or guest token
- optional title, description, and tags
- the target upload endpoint URL
This is sent to:
https://uploadme.me/api/1/upload, or- a custom upload host you configured through premium features
Premium and licensing requests
If you use premium-related features, the extension may send data such as:
- your entered license key
- requests to verify license status

These requests may be sent to:
https://chrome.uploadme.me/...
7. What the extension does not do
The extension does not:
- sell your personal data
- use hidden analytics or advertising trackers inside the extension
- collect browsing history for marketing purposes
- upload images automatically without a user action
- read webpage content unrelated to selecting an image for upload
8. Chrome permissions and why they are used
The extension currently uses the following permissions:
contextMenus
Used to add the right-click upload option for images.storage
Used to save settings, API token preference, recent uploads, theme selection, and premium/license settings.notifications
Used to show upload success or failure notifications.- host access to webpage URLs
Used so the extension can detect images on webpages and fetch the selected image for upload when you choose to use the extension.
9. Data retention
Data stored in Chrome storage remains there until:
- you remove it through the extension
- you clear browser extension storage
- you uninstall the extension
- Chrome sync removes or overwrites synced data according to your Chrome settings
Data sent to UploadMe or a configured upload host is governed by that service’s own storage, retention, moderation, and privacy rules.
10. Security
The extension stores settings using Chrome’s extension storage system. However, no software or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should only use the extension on devices and browser profiles you trust.
11. Third-party services
Depending on the feature you use, the extension may interact with:
- UploadMe
- a custom compatible upload host configured by you
- Chrome Web Store pages
- premium licensing and checkout services operated under the UploadMe domain or subdomains
Those services may have their own privacy policies and terms.
12. Children’s privacy
The extension is not intended for children under the age required by applicable law to use the related services independently.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version becomes effective when published.
