Privacy policy

Effective: 22 October 2026

The extension keeps everything it captures on your computer and sends nothing to anyone. This website loads Google Analytics only after you allow it. Cloudflare provides hosting and separate website performance measurement, as described below.

Pixel Debugger is a Chrome extension for debugging website tracking. It shows the advertising and analytics requests that the website in your current tab sends, and decodes the events in them.

What the extension handles

While you use it, the extension reads the following in your browser:

• Tracking requests that pages send to advertising and analytics networks (for example Meta, Google Analytics, TikTok), with their parameters. These can contain identifiers that the website itself sends to those networks, such as hashed email addresses, click IDs or customer IDs.
• The addresses (URLs) and titles of pages you visit in a tab you are inspecting.
• Signals on those pages that identify the website platform, loaded tracking scripts, consent commands and data layer entries.

Where it is kept

Everything stays on your computer:

• Live captures are kept in Chrome's session storage and are cleared when Chrome closes. Up to eight recently used tabs are kept; older ones are removed.
• Saved recordings are kept in the extension's local database (IndexedDB) until you delete them.
• Exports (JSON, Markdown or copied text) are created only when you ask for them, and go where you save or paste them.

What it does not do

• It does not send any data to the developer or to anyone else. It has no server, analytics, advertising or tracking of its own.
• It does not sell or share data, or use it for anything other than showing it to you.
• It never blocks, changes or re-sends a website's requests. It only observes them.
• It loads no remote code. All code, fonts and icons are part of the installed extension.

Optional feedback

Send feedback opens your email app with [email protected] as the recipient and the extension version in the subject. No capture is attached and no email is sent automatically; you choose what to include and whether to send it. When you remove the extension, Chrome opens a feedback page on pixeldebugger.com. That page address carries only the extension version and the uninstall source, not your browsing history or captures.

Your control

• Clear removes a tab's capture.
• Saved recordings can be deleted from the Saved recordings list.
• Uninstalling the extension removes all of its stored data.

Captured values are shown exactly as sent, without redaction. Keep that in mind before you share an export or a recording.

This website

pixeldebugger.com uses optional Google Analytics 4 to measure page visits and clicks from this website to the Chrome Web Store. Google Analytics starts only after you choose Allow analytics. If you decline, the website does not load Google Analytics or send analytics requests to Google. The extension itself has no analytics, and its captures and recordings are never sent to Google.

When allowed, Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish visits and receives the page address and title, referring website origin, approved campaign labels, store-link clicks, and browser/device and connection information. Other query parameters and URL fragments are removed from the page addresses we send. We do not enable Google signals or advertising personalization. A click to the Chrome Web Store does not tell us whether you installed the extension. Google's handling of this information is described in Google's Privacy Policy.

Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage. You can change it using Analytics settings in the website footer. Declining after allowing stops future Google Analytics measurement, removes this site's Google Analytics cookies and reloads the page when the choice can be saved. It does not delete information already received by Google.

Cloudflare hosts and delivers this website and processes connection information, including IP addresses. The site also loads Cloudflare's Web Analytics beacon for visit and page-performance measurement, independently of your Google Analytics choice. Cloudflare states that this measurement does not use cookies or browser storage or track visitors across websites. See Cloudflare's privacy policy and Web Analytics documentation.

Fonts and images are served from this site. The event board on the home page is simulated in your browser and sends nothing.

Changes and contact
