The Point Chrome extension requests a number of Google Chrome permissions in order to function as the quickest way to send a link from any webpage and have an interactive chat alongside any website content. Below we have detailed how we use each of these permissions. You can also find this information in our privacy policy (https://www.getpoint.co/legal).
- Point uses the "All URLS" permission so that it can run the app on any page. This allows you to quickly and easily send a Point from any page and open Point chats alongside the page. Point does not use this to record your browsing history. It only saves the websites you send a Point chat from.
- Point uses the "Web Request" and "Web Request Blocking" permission only to intercept web requests to Point's website and servers so that it can securely send and receive your authentication info during login. It does not use this permission to record or manipulate your web browsing activity.
