Chrome extension privacy

The extension does not read your files, does not upload them, and does not run analytics.

What the extension does

The popup lists links to GustKit tools. The right-click menu item Open in GustKit opens a tool page on https://gustkit.com when you click a PDF link, an image, or a PDF that is already open. You then choose the file on the site, in the browser.

What it does not do

It does not ask for your downloads folder. It does not read the bytes of a PDF or an image. It does not send those files to GustKit or to anyone else. It does not set a cookie, does not use local storage, and does not include an analytics script.

Permissions are limited to the context menu, so the menu item can be created. The extension does not request access to every site's contents.

The website is separate

After a page on gustkit.com opens, that page follows the site privacy policy. Browser tools still keep the file on your device. File sharing, if you choose it, is described on the main privacy page.

Frequently asked questions

Does the extension see the PDF I right-click?

No. It only opens the matching tool page. The file stays where it was until you drop it into the page yourself.

Can I remove it?

Yes. Remove GustKit from chrome://extensions. Nothing remains, because nothing was stored.
