Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 20, 2025

Overview

React Grab is a developer tool that helps you inspect and copy React components from web pages. This privacy policy explains how the React Grab browser extension and website handle your data.

Data Collection

React Grab does NOT collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Specifically:

  • We do not collect any personally identifiable information
  • We do not track your browsing history
  • We do not store any data about the websites you visit
  • We do not use analytics or tracking services
  • We do not use cookies for tracking purposes

How React Grab Works

React Grab operates entirely locally in your browser. When you use the extension:

  • The extension injects code into web pages to enable element selection
  • When you select an element, the HTML/JSX is copied to your clipboard locally
  • No data is sent to external servers
  • All processing happens on your device

Permissions

The extension requires the following permissions:

  • Access to all websites ("<all_urls>"): Required to inject the element selection functionality into any webpage you visit. This enables you to grab elements from any site.
  • Storage: Used only to store your extension preferences locally on your device (such as whether the extension is enabled or disabled).
  • Active Tab: Needed to interact with the currently active tab when you use the keyboard shortcut to grab elements.

These permissions are used solely for the core functionality of the extension and are not used to collect or transmit any data.

Local Storage

React Grab may store minimal settings locally on your device using browser storage APIs. This data never leaves your device and can be cleared by uninstalling the extension or clearing your browser data.

Third-Party Services

React Grab does not integrate with any third-party analytics, tracking, or advertising services. The extension operates entirely offline and does not make any external network requests.

Open Source

React Grab is open source software. You can review the complete source code on GitHub to verify these privacy claims.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Since we don't collect your contact information, we cannot notify you directly of changes.

Summary

React Grab respects your privacy. We don't collect, store, or transmit any of your personal data. The extension works entirely locally on your device.
