Privacy policy

Last updated 10 November 2026

Element Grabber is a browser extension made by Vojtěch Okénka. It lets you pick an element on a web page and copy it to your clipboard as a PNG image or as text.

The short version: Element Grabber does not collect, store or send any data. Everything happens in your browser.

What the extension works with

When you start the picker and click an element, the extension reads that part of the page. For a PNG it captures the visible part of the tab and crops it to the element. For text it reads the text of the element.

The result goes to your clipboard and nowhere else. It is not saved by the extension and it never leaves your device.

What it does not do

• It has no servers and makes no network requests.
• It has no analytics, no accounts, no cookies and no ads.
• It does not read your browsing history or your other tabs.
• It does not sell or share anything, because it has nothing to sell or share.

When it runs

Only on the tab where you start it, with the keyboard shortcut or the toolbar icon. It stops as soon as you copy something or close the picker. Nothing runs in the background.

Permissions

• activeTab gives the extension temporary access to the current tab after you start it. It needs this to show the picker and to capture the visible part of the page.
• scripting lets the extension add the picker to the current tab at the moment you start it.
