In short: Remove Elements keeps its data on your device. It does not send or transmit anything to the developer or anyone else. It has no server, no accounts, no analytics and no ads.

What the extension does

Remove Elements lets you pick elements on a web page, for example hidden form fields, and removes them every time that exact page loads.

What it stores

When you remove something, the extension saves a rule on your device in chrome.storage.local. A rule contains:

• the page address, as origin and path only (for example https://example.com/login, without the query string or fragment),
• a CSS selector that finds the element,
• a short label such as Hidden password field "pw_shadow", built from the element's name, id or label attributes,
• the time the rule was created.

While Chrome is asking you for access to a site, the extension also keeps a short note in chrome.storage.session (the tab, which view to open, and the site). It is deleted as soon as it is used, and Chrome clears it when the browser closes.

Rules are not synced to your Google account and are not shared with anyone.

What it reads

On sites you have allowed, the extension reads the structure and attributes of the page (element names, ids, types, positions) on your device, to list hidden fields, to match your rules and to build selectors.

It does not read, collect or store the values you type or that a password manager fills in, the contents of forms, cookies, or the text of pages.

What it never does

• It does not send or transmit data off your device. The extension contains no code that makes network requests.
• It does not load or run code from the internet.
• It does not use any third-party service, analytics or advertising, and it does not sell or share data.

Site access

Installing the extension gives it access to no website. The first time you use it on a site, Chrome asks whether to allow that one site, and the extension only runs on sites you have allowed. To see or revoke this, open chrome://extensions, choose Details for Remove Elements, and change Site access. Once you revoke a site, the extension stops running there.

Your control

• Delete any rule from the extension's popup.
• Uninstalling the extension deletes all of its stored data.
• You can revoke access to a site at any time, as described above.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at the same address with a new date.
