What Diigo Web Collector is

Diigo saves pages into a searchable account library, supports in-page highlights and sticky notes, and can preserve archived copies. Its group features are useful for shared research, though the product asks for meaningful page access.

Permissions and privacy

Page access

Research capture tools usually read the active page so they can collect citation metadata, files, or selected content. Grant access only on sites you intend to save from.

Data notes

Saved pages, citation metadata, and account libraries can reveal research interests. Review sync, retention, and deletion controls before connecting a long-lived library.

Pricing

Free plan with paid Standard, Professional, and Business tiers. Pricing and plan limits change more often than store metadata, so use the linked developer page as the final check before subscribing.
