WA Contacts & Broadcast Extractor Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy for WA Contacts & Broadcast Extractor

Last Updated: August 21, 2026

WA Contacts & Broadcast Extractor ("the Extension") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding user data.


1. Zero Data Collection

The Extension does not collect, store, transmit, track, or sell any personal information, contact lists, phone numbers, messages, browsing history, or analytics.

2. 100% Local Browser Execution

All operations—including reading broadcast lists, group participants, and contacts from WhatsApp Web—are executed strictly in your local browser's client-side memory.

  • When you click Export, the CSV/JSON file is generated directly on your device and downloaded to your local computer.
  • No data is ever sent to external servers, cloud databases, or third-party APIs.

3. Permissions Used

The Extension requests the following browser permissions strictly for its single core purpose:

  • storage: Saves your local export format preference (e.g., CSV or JSON) on your computer.
  • activeTab & tabs: Detects if web.whatsapp.com is open when you click the extension popup.
  • scripting & Host Permission (https://web.whatsapp.com/*): Enables reading your active WhatsApp Web session to format contact lists upon your explicit export request.

4. Third-Party Sharing

We do not share, sell, transfer, or monetize any user data with any third party, advertising network, or data broker.

5. Open Source & Transparency

The source code for this extension is publicly available for auditing at:
