ScreenLint

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 14, 2026

Overview

ScreenLint is a Chrome extension that helps users inspect the active web page for UI quality, accessibility, and launch-readiness issues. The extension is designed to run locally in the browser after the user clicks the extension.

Data ScreenLint Processes

When a user clicks "Scan current page", ScreenLint reads visible page structure and computed page information from the active browser tab to produce a local report. This may include the page URL, page title, viewport size, CSS selector hints, and short text snippets that help identify UI issues.

This processing is used only to provide ScreenLint's single purpose: reporting local UI quality issues on the active page after user action.

Data Collection and Sharing

ScreenLint does not collect, sell, transmit, or share personal data, browsing history, scan reports, page content, or user identity with any third party.

ScreenLint does not upload scanned page content to a remote server. All scan logic is included in the extension package.

Local Storage

ScreenLint uses Chrome extension local storage on the user's device for local settings and reports.

  • settings: scan thresholds and enabled checks.
  • lastScan: the most recent local scan report.
  • scanHistory: recent local reports when Pro features are enabled.
  • sponsorSlotDismissed: whether the sponsored card was hidden.
  • entitlement: local free, subscription, or sponsor-funded Pro status.

Sponsored Pro Pass

ScreenLint may show a clearly labelled Sponsored Pro Pass card inside the extension popup. Sponsored content is dismissible. Sponsors do not receive browsing data, page content, scan reports, or user identity. Sponsored Pro Pass only unlocks local extension features.

Permissions

  • activeTab: allows ScreenLint to scan only the current active page after the user clicks the extension.
  • scripting: allows ScreenLint to inject its packaged local scanner into the active tab after user action.
  • storage: saves local settings, reports, sponsor dismissal state, and local entitlement status.

Remote Code

ScreenLint does not load or execute remotely hosted JavaScript or WebAssembly. All extension logic is included in the uploaded extension package.
