Markdown Cleaner privacy policy

Markdown Cleaner is a free Chrome extension published by Cowerx. It turns supported web pages or selected text into Markdown. This policy covers the extension; this website has its own site privacy policy.

Page content stays on your device

The extension reads a page only when you click its button or choose its menu item on that tab. Conversion runs locally. No page text is uploaded. The Markdown goes to your clipboard, or to a file if you choose Download. Page text, page addresses and browsing history are never sent to Cowerx.

Reddit comment requests

When you convert a Reddit thread, the extension asks Reddit for that thread’s comments. The request goes from the page to reddit.com, using the thread address and your current Reddit session. Nothing from it is sent to Cowerx.

What is stored on your device

It is kept in Chrome's extension storage and removed when you uninstall the extension. The extension stores no settings, page content or history.

What is sent, and when

Nothing else is sent to Cowerx.
