Extension Privacy Policy

Updated in June 2026

The Roasted browser extension (the "extension") is a free, open-source tool that copies the job description from the page you are viewing to your clipboard. This page describes what data the extension touches and what it does not do. It does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. Everything runs on your machine, in your browser, with no backend.

What the extension reads

When you click Copy JD in the right-click menu on a tab, the extension reads the visible HTML of that one tab (granted temporarily through Chrome's activeTab permission), runs deterministic parsers locally to find the job description, and writes the cleaned plain text to your clipboard.

For a small set of well-known job sites (currently Workday) the extension may fetch a public JSON document from the same site you are viewing. These requests go directly from your browser to that job site, exactly as if you reloaded the page. No data is sent to us.

What the extension does not do

  • It does not send your data anywhere we control. There is no backend, no server, no database operated by the publisher.
  • It does not use analytics, telemetry, crash reporters, or fingerprinting.
  • It does not request broad host permissions. There is no <all_urls> access; the content script only runs in the tab you right-click.
  • It does not read tabs you do not click.
  • It does not use any AI service, remote model, or third-party API beyond the per-site URLs already declared in the open-source code.
  • It does not access your browsing history, cookies, passwords, or downloads.
  • It does not modify the page beyond a brief on-screen toast confirming the copy.

Permissions used and why

  • contextMenus: Add the Copy JD entry to the right-click menu.
  • scripting: Inject the local content script that reads the page when you click Copy JD.
  • activeTab: Temporarily access the single tab you right-clicked, so the content script can read its DOM.

Data sharing

We do not collect data, so we do not share data.
