Privacy Policy — Event Inspector

Last updated: 27 July 2026

Event Inspector does not collect, store, sell, or transmit any personal data. It has no backend server, no analytics, no tracking, and no accounts. The extension makes no network requests of any kind. Everything it shows is produced and kept inside your browser.

What the extension accesses

  • Analytics events on pages you visit — the extension runs a small script on pages to observe calls the page itself makes: window.dataLayer.push(...) and gtag(...). It records the arguments of those calls, the moment they happened and the URL of the page they fired on, so the events can be grouped by page load.
  • Nothing else on the page — it does not read page text, form fields, cookies, passwords or storage, and it does not modify the page. If a site makes no dataLayer or gtag calls, the extension records nothing at all.
  • Tab URL and id — used to show which page you are inspecting and to keep each tab's events separate.

Data storage

Captured events are held in session storage (chrome.storage.session), separately for each tab, and are limited to the 500 most recent events per tab. They are erased when you close the tab, when you press Clear, and when you close the browser. Your theme and language preferences are stored locally in the side panel's own localStorage. Nothing is written to disk beyond those preferences, and nothing leaves your device.

Data sharing

No data is shared with the developer or any third party. The extension does not use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to its single purpose (debugging analytics events on the current page), and does not use it to determine creditworthiness or for lending.

Permissions

  • storage — to keep captured events per tab and remember your theme and language.
  • sidePanel — to show the event feed alongside the page.
  • tabs — to know which tab is active and to clear its events when it closes.
  • Content scripts on all sites — the observer script must be in place before the page's own analytics code runs, so it is registered for all URLs. It only listens to dataLayer and gtag calls, and requests no host permissions beyond that.
