Privacy Policy — Network Request Copier

Last updated: 17 August 2026

Network Request Copier is a Chrome DevTools extension that lets a developer copy the details of network requests made by the page they are inspecting.

Summary

This extension does not collect, store, transmit, or sell any user data.

It has no servers, no analytics, no telemetry, and no network code of any kind. Nothing ever leaves your computer.

What the extension accesses

While Chrome DevTools is open, the extension receives network request metadata for the inspected tab through the standard chrome.devtools.network API. This can include request URLs, HTTP methods, status codes, request headers, request bodies, response headers, and response bodies — the same information already visible to you in the built-in DevTools Network panel.

How that information is handled

• It is held only in the memory of the DevTools panel, in a list capped at 500 requests.
• It is discarded when you close DevTools, reload the panel, or click Clear List. Nothing is written to disk, to chrome.storage, to localStorage, or to any database.
• It is never transmitted anywhere. The extension contains no fetch, no XMLHttpRequest, and no other network calls. It declares no host permissions and, in fact, declares no permissions at all in its manifest.
• It is written to your system clipboard only when you explicitly ask for it by pressing the copy shortcut, pressing Enter, double-clicking a request, or clicking the Copy Selected button.

Data you copy is your responsibility

When you copy a request, the copied text may contain sensitive values that were present in that request — for example Authorization headers, cookies, API keys, session tokens, or personal information contained in a response body. The extension places this text on your clipboard and does nothing further with it.

Please review what you have copied before pasting it into a bug report, a chat message, a support ticket, or any third-party tool.

No remote code

All of the extension’s code is contained in the published package. It loads no external scripts, stylesheets, fonts, or WebAssembly modules, and it does not use eval() or any other form of dynamic code execution.

Third parties

There are none. No data is shared with, sold to, or transferred to any third party, for any purpose.

Children’s privacy

The extension is a developer tool and is not directed at children. It collects no data from anyone, including children.
