ScreenBadger – Screen Recorder

Last updated: November 06, 2026
Summary

Summary

ScreenBadger does not collect, sell, rent, or share your personal information. There is no account, no sign-in, and no analytics or advertising SDK of any kind in this extension. Your recordings, settings and course data are stored locally in your own browser and stay on your device. Screen, microphone and camera content is processed only on your device.

What data is stored, and where

What data is stored, and where

All data the extension needs is saved locally, on your device, using your browser's extension storage and IndexedDB for recordings. This data is:

  • Never transmitted to UnleashSelf or to any third party
  • Never used for advertising or analytics
  • Removed automatically if you uninstall the extension or clear its data
Permissions this extension requests, and why

Permissions this extension requests, and why

  • storage (Required) — Save your settings (recording source, quality, microphone choice, theme) and the webcam bubble position. Nothing leaves the device.
  • unlimitedStorage (Required) — Recordings are video files that can be large and are kept in the browser's IndexedDB on your device. Without this permission long recordings would hit the default storage limit.
  • scripting (Required) — Used only while a recording is running with the optional webcam bubble or cursor highlight turned on, to place those overlays on the pages you have open so they appear in the video. No page content is read.
  • Access to all sites (Optional — off until you turn it on) — Requested when you turn on the webcam bubble or the cursor highlight, never at install. It is used only to draw those overlays on the pages being recorded.
How this extension behaves

How this extension behaves

Screen, microphone and camera access is not an extension permission: the browser asks you each time you record, and you can decline. The webcam bubble is shown in a small extension-owned frame inside the page being recorded. ScreenBadger does not read, collect or transmit page content. In Firefox, only the microphone is recorded (no tab or system audio) and videos are saved as WebM.

Third-party services

Third-party services

This extension does not connect to any server operated by UnleashSelf or any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking service.

Children's privacy

Children's privacy

This extension is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect information from anyone. Because no data is collected in the first place, there is no personal information of any user, including children, retained by UnleashSelf.

Data retention and deletion

Data retention and deletion

Since all data stays in your browser's local storage, you control it directly: clear it from the extension's own Settings/Export screen (where offered), or remove it entirely by uninstalling the extension. UnleashSelf has no copy of your data to retain or delete, because none is ever sent to us.

Changes to this policy

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will change accordingly. Continued use of the extension after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
