The short version.
Your recordings never reach us. The extension has no server, no account and no analytics, and it requests no permission that would let it send your video anywhere. Recording works with your internet switched off.
The exceptions, all covered below: settings and thumbnails are stored on your own computer; this website loads fonts from Google; and if you choose to send feedback, we receive what you typed.
1. Who we are
Zooroll is operated by BunkLyf.
2. What the extension does with your recordings
Nothing beyond making them. When you record, video and audio are captured by your browser, composited on your machine, and written by Chrome into your Downloads folder. At no point is a recording transmitted, copied, analysed or retained by us. We could not read your recordings if we wanted to.
This is verifiable rather than a promise. Open chrome://extensions, click Details on Zooroll,
and read the permissions. There are no host permissions granted for our own use, which means there is no
address the extension is allowed to send anything to.
Camera and microphone
If you enable them, Zooroll opens your camera and microphone through your browser and uses them only to build the recording. The streams stay in your browser. Access is granted by you once, through Chrome's own permission prompt, and can be withdrawn at any time in Chrome's site settings.
3. What is stored on your computer
The extension keeps a small amount of data in Chrome's local extension storage. It stays on your machine and is deleted when you uninstall the extension.
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Your settings — source, resolution, frame rate, camera shape and position, audio choices, save folder | So your preferences survive between recordings |
| A list of up to twelve recent recordings: file name, size, length, time, and a small still image from each | To show the "Earlier recordings" strip. The still is captured as the recording ends, because an extension cannot read a saved file back from your disk. |
None of this is transmitted anywhere. You can clear the recording list at any time from the button on the saved-recording page, and clear everything by removing the extension.
4. Permissions, and why each one exists
Browsers ask for permissions in broad language. Here is what each is actually used for.
| Permission | Used for |
|---|---|
desktopCapture, tabCapture |
Recording a screen, a window or a tab, after you choose it |
offscreen |
A hidden page that runs the compositor and encoder, because a background worker cannot |
downloads, downloads.open |
Writing the file, and opening or revealing it when you ask |
storage |
The settings and recent list described above |
activeTab, scripting |
Placing the on-screen toolbar and camera frame in the page you are recording |
system.display |
Reading screen size so recordings are not blurry on high-resolution displays |
<all_urls> (optional) |
Only if you turn on "Tools on every tab". It lets the toolbar follow you between tabs. Turn the setting off and the permission is revoked, not merely ignored. |
We do not read the pages you visit, your browsing history, your bookmarks or your form data, and no permission here would let us send such data anywhere even if we collected it.
5. Sharing to other services
The saved-recording page has buttons for YouTube, WhatsApp, Facebook and LinkedIn. These do not upload anything. Each one opens that service's own page in a new tab and reveals your file in your file manager, so that you can attach it yourself. Your recording is not sent to us or to them by Zooroll.
Once you upload a file to one of those services, that service's privacy policy governs it, not ours.
Where your operating system offers a share sheet, choosing it passes the file directly from your computer to the app you select. It does not pass through us.
6. This website
Hosting
This site is hosted on GitHub Pages. Like any web host, GitHub records requests, which can include your IP address and browser details, for security and to serve the site. See GitHub's privacy statement.
Fonts
The site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. Your browser therefore requests them from Google's servers, and Google receives your IP address as part of that request. We do not receive it and we set no advertising or tracking cookies.
The feedback form
If you use the form, we receive what you submit: the type of feedback, your rating if you gave one, your message, and your name and email if you chose to provide them. These are optional; without an email address we can read your message but cannot reply. Submissions are stored in a private Google Sheet and used only to fix problems and decide what to build. They are not sold, shared or used for advertising.
No analytics
There is no analytics script, no advertising pixel and no cookie banner on this site, because there is nothing to consent to. We do not know how many people visit or which pages they read.
7. Children
Zooroll is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. Since the extension collects nothing, this concerns the feedback form only. If you believe a child has sent us their details, write to us and we will delete them.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live — for example under the GDPR in the EU and UK, or the DPDP Act in India — you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export personal data we hold about you, and to object to its processing.
In practice we hold nothing about you unless you have used the feedback form.Your recordings are not ours to give you or delete; they are already yours, on your own machine.
9. Security
The strongest security measure here is structural: we do not have your recordings, so they cannot be leaked by us. Feedback submissions are held in a Google account protected by a password and two-factor authentication.
10. Changes
If this policy changes materially — in particular if any version of Zooroll ever transmits data — we will update the date at the top and describe the change here rather than quietly amend the text. A version of Zooroll that uploads your recordings would be a different product, and we would say so plainly.
