chrome.storage.session. - User preferences and dictionaries are stored in
chrome.storage.local. - A maximum of 200 requests per tab is retained in the session buffer.
What is not collected

- No usage analytics or telemetry is collected by the extension.
- No personal information is harvested, aggregated, or transmitted.
- No cookies are set by the extension.
Data visible to you
