Privacy Policy
The short version
This extension does not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal information. Your PDF files never leave your computer, are never uploaded to any server, and are never seen by us or by any third party. There is no account, no sign-in, no tracking, no advertising, and no analytics.
What the extension does
Make PDF Fillable lets you pick a PDF from your device and open it in the Fillable Fields editor so you can add text fields, checkboxes, and a signature line, then download the filled result. All PDF processing happens locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to us.
What data we access, and why
Your PDF file — read entirely on your device. To pass it to the editor tab, the extension temporarily places it in your browser’s local storage (chrome.storage.local) and hands it to the fillable-fields.com page. The file is stored only on your computer, never transmitted, and is deleted immediately after handoff (and auto-discarded within 60 seconds if not picked up). We never receive or access your file.
Local preference flags — two on/off markers (ffUsed, ffRated) that control whether a “rate this extension” prompt appears. No personal information; they stay on your device.
Permissions we request, and why
- storage / unlimitedStorage — temporarily hold the PDF locally during handoff and store the two preference flags (unlimited quota only so large PDFs up to 100 MB fit briefly).
- sidePanel — show the drop-zone interface in Chrome’s side panel.
- Host access to fillable-fields.com — a content script runs only on the Fillable Fields site, solely to deliver your PDF into the editor. No access to any other site.
Data we do NOT collect
No personally identifiable information, health, financial, authentication, location, or communications data; no browsing history; no keystroke or mouse tracking. No analytics, ads, or third-party tracking code.
Third parties
No data is shared with third parties, because none is collected. The only pages the extension opens are our own project pages (welcome, uninstall feedback, optional rating) and the Fillable Fields editor — ordinary navigation, no file or data transfer.
Children’s privacy
This is a general-purpose utility, not directed at children; it collects no personal information from anyone.
Changes to this policy
Any changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date above and published at the same location.
