Privacy Policy

This Chrome extension ("the extension") is provided as-is by its developer. This page describes what data the extension handles and what it does not.

What the extension does

When you click the extension's toolbar icon, it reads the hostname of the active browser tab so it can show any cached LegitScript certification status for that domain and offer a "Check on LegitScript" button. Clicking that button opens the public LegitScript lookup page in a new tab.

If you complete the CAPTCHA on the LegitScript page and confirm the result through the small in-page widget, the extension records the domain and the status you chose in your browser's local storage.

What data the extension collects or transmits

None. The extension does not:

• Collect personal information.
• Send any data to the developer or any third party.
• Track your browsing activity across sites.
• Run analytics or telemetry.

The only network requests the extension causes are the ones you explicitly trigger by clicking "Check on LegitScript", which open the normal public legitscript.com lookup page in your browser. Those requests are made by the browser itself, with your normal cookies and user-agent, exactly as if you had typed the URL.

What is stored locally

The extension stores the following in chrome.storage.local, which lives only on your device:

• The domain you checked (e.g., examplepharmacy.com).
• The status you confirmed (Certified, Probationary, Not Certified, Rogue/Unapproved, Not in database, or Unknown).
• The timestamp of the save.
• Whether the status was auto-detected or manually entered.

You can clear this data at any time by clicking Forget cached result in the popup, or by removing the extension.

Permissions

• activeTab — read the URL of the current tab when you click the icon.
• storage — keep the local cache described above.
• Host access to https://www.legitscript.com/* — let the content script run on the LegitScript lookup page so it can read the result you just confirmed.

Trademarks

This extension is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by LegitScript LLC. "LegitScript" is a trademark of LegitScript LLC and is used only to identify the public service whose results the extension helps you record locally.
