Save Image As Format Chrome Extension · Last updated: April 2026

  Summary: This extension collects no personal data whatsoever. It has no servers,
  no analytics, no tracking, and no external connections of any kind beyond downloading the image
  you explicitly right-click.

What This Extension Does

Save Image As Format is a browser extension that allows users to save web images in different file formats (PNG, JPEG, WebP, BMP) by right-clicking on any image. All image processing happens entirely within your local browser using the Canvas API. No image data is ever transmitted to any external server.

Data We Collect

We collect no personal data. Specifically:

No browsing history is accessed or stored.
No personal information is collected.
No analytics or telemetry data is gathered.
No cookies are read or set.
No user identifiers of any kind are created or stored.

Network Access

The extension requests the <all_urls> host permission solely to fetch the image that the user explicitly right-clicks and selects to convert. This single network request goes directly to the website hosting the image — not to any third-party server. The extension makes no other network requests and does not communicate with any backend or analytics service.

Local Storage

User preferences (JPEG quality, WebP quality, filename prefix, save dialog preference) are stored locally using Chrome's chrome.storage.sync API. This data is limited to your settings and is never transmitted to any server operated by this extension. Chrome may sync these preferences across your own devices if you are signed into Chrome sync.
