Browser permissions
Agent EMP Extension asks for as little as possible. Here's exactly what each permission is for.
| Permission | What it's used for |
|---|---|
| storage | Saves your timers, intervals, connection status and device credential in the Extension's own browser storage. |
| alarms | Runs each tab's timer and the once-a-minute access check, even when the popup is closed. |
| scripting | On sites you granted, runs small checks inside the page: whether you're typing or have unsaved edits (yes/no only), and saving/restoring your scroll position. |
| activeTab | Lets the popup see the address and title of the tab you're looking at when you open it, so you can start that tab. |
| idle | Notices when your computer wakes or you come back, so the Extension re-checks access before catching up on timers. |
| Optional site access (http/https) | Requested for one site at a time, only when you press Start on it. Without it, nothing on that site is touched. No site access is granted at install. |
What stays on your computer vs. what is sent
- Stays local: which tabs you started, their sites, titles and intervals, remembered intervals per page, scroll position, and the typing yes/no check.
- Sent to AgentEmp: only the installation ID, device ID and secret, and extension version — to check whether your access is active.
- Never collected: third-party logins, passwords, codes, cookies or session tokens, anything you type, page content, full addresses or browsing history.
How to stop or remove
- Stop a tab: open the Extension and press Stop. Stop everything: press "Stop all tabs".
- Remove site access: right-click the Extension icon → "This can read and change site data", or go to chrome://extensions → Agent EMP Extension → Details → Site access.
- Disconnect this browser: Extension → More → Disconnect, or disconnect the device on your Account page.
- Uninstall: chrome://extensions → Agent EMP Extension → Remove. This deletes all its local data.
