Privacy Policy

LinkNote Obsidian is a Chrome extension for saving a webpage URL with a user-written description and date, copying formatted notes, and downloading Markdown (.md) files.

1. Information the extension handles

• Current webpage URL: When you open the extension popup, it reads the URL of the active tab to prefill the Link field. You can edit this field manually.
• Descriptions you enter: The extension processes text you type into the My Description field so that you can create notes and retrieve drafts for that page.
• Note date: The extension uses the date from your device to add a date to the note.

Although the extension uses the current tab URL, it does not scan the contents of the page, collect your full browsing history, monitor browsing activity, or read emails or passwords.

2. How the information is used

The URL, description, and date are used solely to show the note preview, copy note text to your clipboard at your request, and generate a Markdown file when you choose Save .md Note.

3. Local storage and retention

The extension stores descriptions using Chrome extension local storage, indexed by the webpage URL at the time the popup was opened, so that your draft can reappear if you reopen the extension on that URL. The extension does not maintain an independently collected list of pages you visit.

Drafts remain in Chrome's extension storage until that storage is cleared or the extension is uninstalled. The current version does not offer a separate delete-draft button. Files you download and text you paste into another app are controlled by you and by the receiving application.

4. Sharing, sales, and third parties

The extension does not sell your data, send it to the developer, use advertising trackers, or transmit it to third-party analytics or AI services. It does not require an account. It uses Chrome's built-in APIs for accessing the current tab URL, storing drafts locally, copying to the clipboard, and downloading files.

When you choose Copy, the text is placed on your device's clipboard. When you choose Save, Chrome saves the generated Markdown file through its download system. If you later share or synchronize that information using another service, that service's privacy practices apply.

5. Permissions

• activeTab: Access the active webpage's URL after you click the extension.
• storage: Remember descriptions locally for the relevant URLs.
• clipboardWrite: Copy the link and note to the clipboard when you click a copy button.
• downloads: Save a note as a local Markdown file when you click Save .md Note.

6. User choices

You can edit a draft in the extension, clear the extension's site data through Chrome's extension-storage controls, or uninstall the extension. To remove downloaded files, delete them from your computer separately.

7. Security

The current version does not operate a remote service that receives note data. As with other locally stored browser data, anyone with access to your browser profile or downloaded files may be able to access saved notes. Avoid recording sensitive personal information unless you are comfortable storing it locally.

8. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated if LinkNote Obsidian's features or data practices change. Updates will be published at this page, with a revised effective date.
