Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
This Privacy Policy applies to the page2md web app and the page2md Chrome extension. It explains what data is processed, how it is used, and the choices available to users.
What page2md does
page2md converts webpage content into Markdown. In the extension, conversion runs on the active tab after explicit user action. In the web app, conversion runs when users submit content or a URL.
Data we process
- Website content selected for conversion (for example text, headings, tables, code).
- Page metadata needed for output (for example page title, page URL, conversion time).
- Conversion history stored by the extension and web app for user convenience.
How data is stored
- The Chrome extension stores history locally in browser extension storage (
chrome.storage.local). - The web app stores recent history in browser local/session storage for the current device/browser profile.
- No account is required for these local history features.
How data is used
- To perform conversion and generate Markdown output.
- To show preview and history entries in the app/extension UI.
- To support optional history syncing behavior between the local app tab and extension.
Data sharing
page2md does not sell personal data. Data processed by the extension for conversion history is intended to remain local to the user’s browser storage. If you use hosted API endpoints, submitted conversion input may be processed by that service to return results.
Permissions (Chrome extension)
- activeTab: used after user click to read the current page for conversion.
- scripting: used to run extraction logic in the active tab.
- storage: used to store local conversion history and settings.
Your choices
- Clear saved history in the extension using the “Clear all history” action.
- Clear browser storage to remove locally stored web app history.
- Uninstall the extension at any time.
