Permissions and privacy

Page access

Translating a page requires reading its content. Scope site access to the sites you actually read in other languages.

Data notes

The Chrome Web Store listing says the developer has disclosed that it will not collect or use your data. Text sent to third-party translation engines is governed by those engines' policies.

Pricing

Free tier; paid Pro unlocks premium translation engines. Pricing and plan limits change more often than store metadata, so use the linked developer page as the final check before subscribing.
