Privacy Policy
Last updated 16 August 2026
Uncut does not collect, transmit, or store your data anywhere. Screenshots are produced on your computer and never leave it.
What Uncut does with your data
Nothing leaves your device. Uncut contains no network requests, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising, and no third-party code. There is no account to create and no server to talk to.
What is stored, and for how long
When you capture a page, the resulting image is written to your browser's
local extension storage (chrome.storage.local)
so it can be handed to the result tab. It is removed as soon as that tab loads
it, and only the most recent capture is ever kept. Nothing is written outside
your browser profile until you choose to save a file, which goes to
your normal downloads folder like any other download.
Permissions, and why each one exists
- activeTab
- Read the page you are currently on, only when you click the Uncut button. Uncut has no standing access to any site.
- scripting
- Briefly adjust the page, freezing sticky headers and pausing scroll effects, so the capture is not torn. Every change is then undone.
- debugger
- Call the Chrome DevTools Protocol command that renders the whole page in a single pass, which is the only way to capture without stitching seams. Chrome shows a yellow banner while this is attached; Uncut detaches as soon as the capture finishes.
- downloads
- Save the image when you press a download button.
- storage, unlimitedStorage
- Hold the single in-progress capture. Full-page images routinely exceed the default quota, hence the second one.
None of these permissions are used to observe, record, or transmit your browsing.
Selling, sharing and advertising
Uncut does not sell or transfer your data to third parties. It does not use or transfer your data for any purpose unrelated to its single purpose, and it does not use or transfer your data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes. None of this is a promise we have to police, because no data is collected in the first place and there is nowhere for it to go.
Single purpose
Uncut captures the web page in your active tab as a single full-page image and lets you save it as PNG, JPEG, PDF or SVG. It does nothing else.
Remote code
All code ships inside the extension. There are no remote scripts, no
eval, no bundler and no
minification: six plain JavaScript files you can read in the unpacked folder.
Children
Uncut collects no data from anyone, of any age.
Changes
If a future version of Uncut ever sends data anywhere, this page will be updated before that version is published, and the change will be described here.
