Pixlift does not collect, store, transmit, or sell any personal data.
What the extension does
When you invoke Pixlift on a Google Doc, it requests that document's own export file (.docx) from Google using your existing, already-signed-in browser session. It unzips that file locally, inside your browser, to read the images embedded in the document. It then shows those images in a panel so you can copy one to your clipboard or download it.
Data handling
- All processing is local. The document and its images are handled entirely within your browser. Nothing is sent to the developer or to any third-party server.
- No analytics, no tracking, no telemetry. The extension makes no network requests other than fetching the document export from Google's own servers (
docs.google.com / googleusercontent.com) — the same servers Google Docs already uses.
- No data is retained. Extracted images are held in memory only while the page is open and are discarded when you close or reload the tab.
- Clipboard access is used solely to place an image you choose onto your clipboard when you click Copy.
Permissions
- activeTab / scripting — to run the extension on the Google Doc you're viewing when you trigger it.
- clipboardWrite — to copy a selected image to your clipboard.
- contextMenus — to add the right-click "Copy an image from this doc" entry.
- Host access to
docs.google.com and googleusercontent.com — to fetch the document's export file (Google redirects the download to googleusercontent.com).
