SelectorSpy is a browser extension that helps QA engineers inspect web page elements and extract their selectors for automated testing. This policy describes how the extension handles data.
SelectorSpy does not collect, transmit, or share any personal or sensitive data. The extension operates entirely within the user's browser.
When the user clicks on a page element, the extension reads the element's attributes (such as ID, class name, tag name) from the DOM to generate CSS selectors and XPath expressions. This data is stored locally on the user's device using chrome.storage.local.
All captured element data is stored exclusively on the user's device. No data is sent to external servers, APIs, cloud services, or any third party.
The user can delete all stored data at any time via the extension's "Clear All" button, or by clearing browser data.
activeTab — allows the extension to read the DOM of the currently active tab when the user initiates element inspection.storage — allows the extension to save captured element selectors locally on the user's device.downloads — allows the user to export their saved data to JSON or CSV files. Exports are initiated only by the user.<all_urls>) — allows the content script to run on any website so the user can inspect elements on pages they are testing.SelectorSpy does not integrate with, send data to, or use any third-party services, analytics tools, advertising networks, or tracking scripts.
SelectorSpy does not load or execute any remote JavaScript or WebAssembly code. All code is bundled within the extension package.
SelectorSpy is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from children.
This policy may be updated if the extension's functionality changes. Any updates will be reflected on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
