Privacy Policy for Captain Pin Board

Last updated: 5 November 2026

What this extension does

Captain Pin Board lets you save short text messages and screenshots into collections you create (for example Marketing or Scripts) so you can find them again later. You can save text from the popup, from the full board page, or by right clicking selected text on any webpage, and you can capture an area or a full-page scroll of a webpage as an image. You can also organize cards with checklists, tags, stars, search them, and export or import a backup file.

What data is collected

None. Captain Pin Board does not collect, transmit, sell, or share any personal data, browsing history, or page content. The extension does not contact any server operated by us or by any third party.

What is stored, and where

The messages, screenshots, tags, and collections you create are stored only on your own device, using Chrome's built in storage for extensions (chrome.storage.local). This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or to anyone else. Uninstalling the extension removes this data. If you use Export, a backup file is saved to the location you choose on your own device, and Import reads only the file you select. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Why each permission is needed

• storage: saves your collections, pinned messages, tags, and settings locally on your device.
• unlimitedStorage: lets Captain Pin Board keep your saved screenshots locally, because images are larger than the default storage quota.
• contextMenus: adds the right click option that lets you pin selected text directly to a collection.
• activeTab and scripting: used only when you invoke the extension yourself, by opening the popup, using a keyboard shortcut, or starting an area/full-page capture. They read the text you have highlighted so it can be pre-filled into the pin box, show the on-page selection box and drawing tools used to capture an area as an image, and coordinate automatic scrolling to stitch a full-page screenshot when requested. No other page content is read or changed, and nothing happens unless you invoke the extension.
• clipboardRead: used only when you click the Paste button, to place the text you copied into the pin box. Clipboard contents are never read in the background.

Third parties

Captain Pin Board does not use analytics, advertising, or any third party services.
