Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 12, 2026

Summary

SnapMonkey does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Everything stays in your browser.

Data we collect

None. SnapMonkey does not collect any data from its users. There are no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reports, and no usage tracking of any kind.

Data stored locally

SnapMonkey stores the following data locally in your browser using the Chrome Storage API. This data never leaves your device:

  • Installed userscripts (code and metadata)
  • Script values (data saved by scripts via GM_getValue/GM_setValue)
  • Extension settings (editor theme, update interval, etc.)
  • Cached script dependencies (@require, @resource)

Network requests

SnapMonkey makes network requests only when you explicitly initiate them:

  • Browsing or searching the script store (requests to greasyfork.org)
  • Installing a script from a URL (fetches the .user.js file)
  • Auto-updating scripts (checks @updateURL if enabled)
  • Requests made by installed scripts via GM_xmlhttpRequest

No data is sent to SnapMonkey servers. We do not operate any servers that receive user data.

Permissions

SnapMonkey requests browser permissions solely to provide its core functionality:

  • Host permissions — to inject userscripts on websites matching their @match patterns
  • Storage — to save scripts and settings locally
  • UserScripts — to execute userscripts in a sandboxed environment
  • Downloads — to support the GM_download API
  • Notifications — to support the GM_notification API
  • Offscreen — for clipboard operations (GM_setClipboard)

Third-party scripts

Userscripts you install are third-party code written by other developers. SnapMonkey is not responsible for the behavior of installed userscripts. Review script permissions and source code before installing.

Children

SnapMonkey is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect any information from children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date.
