What Screenshot King stores

Screenshot King stores screenshots captured by the user, thumbnail versions of those screenshots, source page titles, source page URLs, timestamps, capture modes, drawer settings such as collapsed state and position, and any highlight/arrow/text edits drawn onto a screenshot with the built-in editor.

This data is stored locally in Chrome using chrome.storage.local.

Editing and saving screenshots

The Highlight, Arrow, and Text editor tools composite entirely on-device using the browser's Canvas API. Applying an edit adds it to the local queue as a new item; the original screenshot is kept unchanged. Save and Save all write files to the user's own device using standard browser downloads. No screenshot content leaves the browser for either action.

What Screenshot King does not do

• No backend service for screenshot content.
• No telemetry, analytics, advertising, or cross-site tracking.
• No cloud sync or remote screenshot database.
• No sale, rental, or sharing of screenshot data.
• No automatic screenshot insertion or submission to websites.
• No collection of general browsing history.
• No clipboard reads.

Website and capture boundary

Screenshot King content scripts run on normal http and https websites declared in the extension manifest. On those sites, the extension can show the screenshot drawer, capture the visible tab when the user clicks a capture action, and insert user-selected screenshots into compatible editable fields.

Chrome protected pages, DevTools, extension pages, and Chrome Web Store pages do not allow this content-script workflow.

Clipboard

Clipboard writes happen only after explicit user actions: clicking Copy, Copy URL, Insert, Insert all, or any of the three capture buttons (Capture visible page, Capture full page, Select area). Each capture is automatically copied to the clipboard as a pasteable PNG image as part of that same click, in addition to being added to the local queue — there is no separate confirmation step, and no way to turn this off. A single screenshot may be copied as pasteable PNG image data, while text-only fields may receive a markdown fallback.

Screenshot King does not read clipboard contents.

Permissions

The storage permission saves the local screenshot queue and drawer preferences. The clipboardWrite permission writes screenshot image data, markdown fallback text, or source URLs after user action, including the automatic copy that happens as part of every capture. The scripting permission lets the toolbar button restore the drawer on already-open tabs after install or reload. Host access allows the drawer and capture controls on normal websites.

User control

Users can capture screenshots, refresh the queue, edit a screenshot with the highlight/arrow/text tools, save a screenshot or the whole queue to disk, copy image data, copy source URLs, insert selected captures, insert all queued captures, delete individual screenshots, or clear the queue from the extension UI.
