Privacy Policy for EVENTLISTENER

Effective date: July 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how EVENTLISTENER, a Chrome extension for monitoring tab and page activity, handles user data. EVENTLISTENER is designed to help users monitor browser tabs they choose to arm and run user-configured actions when selected conditions are met.

This policy is written for the EVENTLISTENER Chrome extension and for the Chrome Web Store listing. It explains what data the extension handles, why the data is needed, how the data is stored, and what data is not collected.

Short Summary

EVENTLISTENER does not require an account.
EVENTLISTENER does not sell user data.
EVENTLISTENER does not use user data for advertising.
EVENTLISTENER does not collect personal identity information such as name, email address, phone number, address, government ID, or age.
EVENTLISTENER does not collect health information, financial information, payment information, authentication information, personal communications, or precise location.
EVENTLISTENER does not transmit browsing data to the developer's server.
EVENTLISTENER stores extension settings and monitoring state locally using Chrome extension storage.
EVENTLISTENER only monitors tabs that the user chooses to arm.
EVENTLISTENER uses tab and page activity data only to provide its user-facing monitoring and automation features.

Extension Purpose

EVENTLISTENER has a single purpose: to monitor browser tabs that the user chooses to arm and run selected actions when user-configured tab or page conditions are met.

Users can configure rules for signals such as URL changes, page title changes, loading state, audio state, click activity, scroll activity, keyboard activity timing, page visibility, and DOM-change counts. When a rule matches, EVENTLISTENER can run actions such as playing an alarm, showing a notification, running an in-page shortcut, attempting to stop a tracked screen share, closing the tab, or disarming monitoring.

Data Categories Disclosed in the Chrome Web Store

For the Chrome Web Store privacy form, EVENTLISTENER discloses the following user data categories:

Web history: EVENTLISTENER may store URL and page title information for tabs the user chooses to arm, plus related monitoring event records.
User activity: EVENTLISTENER may process activity signals such as clicks, scroll activity, keyboard activity timing, page visibility state, and DOM-change counts on tabs the user chooses to arm.

These disclosures do not mean EVENTLISTENER collects a user's full Chrome browsing history. EVENTLISTENER is designed to work with tabs the user actively arms for monitoring. The extension stores only the information needed to provide its monitoring rules, popup status, dashboard status, cooldowns, and trigger actions.

Information EVENTLISTENER Handles

1. Extension Settings

EVENTLISTENER stores settings needed for the extension to work, including:

Selected event groups
Rule conditions
Rule templates
Trigger action choices
Alarm sound selection
Alarm duration
Cooldown settings
Shortcut settings
Dashboard and popup configuration

This information is stored locally using Chrome extension storage so the user's configuration can be restored across browser sessions.

2. Armed Tab Information

When a user arms a tab, EVENTLISTENER may store information about that monitored tab, including:

Tab ID
Tab title
Tab URL
Time the tab was armed
Current monitoring rule state
Last trigger event for that tab
Timing data used for cooldowns and inactivity rules

This information is used to show the user which tabs are being monitored, apply configured rules, update the extension badge, and run selected actions when a rule fires.

3. Web History Data

EVENTLISTENER may handle URL and title information for tabs that the user chooses to monitor. This is necessary for features such as URL-based rules, title-based rules, loading-state rules, live coverage status, popup status, dashboard status, and alarm event descriptions.

EVENTLISTENER does not collect the user's complete browser history. It does not create a general browsing profile. It does not use browsing data for advertising, analytics, or monetization.

4. User Activity Data

EVENTLISTENER may process user activity and page activity signals on monitored tabs, including:

Click activity
Click inactivity timing
Click burst timing
Scroll activity
Scroll inactivity timing
Scroll depth percentage
Keyboard activity timing
Keyboard inactivity timing
Keyboard burst timing
Page visibility state
DOM-change counts
DOM quiet-period timing
DOM burst timing

This activity data is used only to evaluate the monitoring rules selected by the user. For example, if the user enables a click inactivity rule, EVENTLISTENER needs to know when clicks happen so it can determine whether the page has been idle for the configured time.

5. Alarm and Trigger Event Records

When a rule fires, EVENTLISTENER may store a local event record that can include:

The event category
The condition that fired
A short event label
A short event detail message
The monitored tab title
The monitored tab URL
The time the event occurred

This information is used to show the last alarm state, display meaningful notifications, update the dashboard, apply cooldown behavior, and help the user understand why a rule fired.

Information EVENTLISTENER Does Not Collect

EVENTLISTENER does not collect or request the following categories of information:

Names
Email addresses
Phone numbers
Home addresses
Government identification numbers
Age or date of birth
Health information
Financial information
Payment card information
Passwords
Authentication credentials
Security questions
Personal identification numbers
Emails, texts, or chat messages
GPS coordinates
Precise physical location
Website screenshots
Complete page text
Images, videos, sounds, or hyperlinks from pages
Form contents entered by the user

Website Content

EVENTLISTENER does not collect website content such as page text, images, videos, sounds, hyperlinks, form contents, emails, or chat messages.

EVENTLISTENER may observe that DOM changes occurred on a monitored page and may count those changes for rule matching. This is used for rules such as DOM quiet periods or DOM burst detection. The extension does not store the actual changed content of the page.

Keyboard Activity

EVENTLISTENER may observe keyboard activity timing on monitored tabs when the user enables keyboard-related monitoring rules. This is used to detect keyboard inactivity or keyboard burst conditions.

EVENTLISTENER is not designed to collect typed text, passwords, messages, or form contents. Keyboard monitoring is used for timing and rule matching, not for collecting what the user types.

How EVENTLISTENER Uses Data

EVENTLISTENER uses handled data only to provide its user-facing extension features, including:

Saving user configuration
Restoring saved monitoring rules
Arming and disarming tabs
Showing monitored tab status in the popup
Showing live coverage in the dashboard
Evaluating configured monitoring conditions
Triggering selected actions when rules match
Playing alarm sounds
Showing browser notifications
Running configured in-page shortcuts
Attempting to stop tracked screen sharing when enabled
Closing a monitored tab when the user enables that action
Disarming monitoring when the user enables that action
Applying cooldown settings
Displaying last-event information to the user

Local Storage

EVENTLISTENER stores settings and monitoring state locally using Chrome extension storage. This local storage may include rule settings, templates, selected actions, alarm settings, shortcut settings, monitored tab state, and last alarm information.

Users can remove this locally stored extension data by removing the extension from Chrome. Chrome may also provide browser-level controls for clearing extension data, depending on the browser version and user settings.

Data Sharing

EVENTLISTENER does not sell user data.

EVENTLISTENER does not transfer user data to third parties for advertising, analytics, profiling, creditworthiness, lending, or marketing purposes.

EVENTLISTENER does not transmit browsing data, monitored tab data, rule data, or user activity data to the developer's server.

EVENTLISTENER may interact with Chrome APIs and the local browser environment as needed to provide extension functionality, such as Chrome storage, tabs, alarms, notifications, scripting, and offscreen audio playback.

Remote Code

EVENTLISTENER does not use remote code. The extension's JavaScript, HTML, CSS, icons, and local audio-generation logic are included in the extension package. The extension does not load remote scripts, remote WebAssembly, external modules, or code strings evaluated through eval.

Permissions Explained

Alarms

The alarms permission is used to schedule time-based monitoring conditions and cooldown behavior for armed tabs.

Notifications

The notifications permission is used to show a browser notification when a user-configured monitoring rule fires.

Offscreen

The offscreen permission is used to create an offscreen document for alarm audio playback. Manifest V3 service workers cannot reliably play audio directly, so EVENTLISTENER uses an offscreen document only to generate and stop local alarm sounds.

Scripting

The scripting permission is used to inject packaged extension scripts into monitorable tabs so EVENTLISTENER can synchronize monitoring state and support user-enabled page actions. These scripts are local files included in the extension package.

Storage

The storage permission is used to save user settings, rule templates, selected actions, alarm choices, shortcut settings, monitored tab sessions, cooldown state, and last alarm state.

Tabs

The tabs permission is used to identify the current tab, arm and disarm monitored tabs, read tab URL, title, loading, and audible status for configured rules, update the extension badge, open the dashboard, focus monitored tabs, and close a tab only when the user enables the close-tab action.

Host Permissions

Host permissions are required because EVENTLISTENER's purpose is to monitor tabs and page activity on websites the user chooses to arm. The extension must support normal web pages across different sites. Packaged content scripts may load on monitorable pages and remain inactive for rule evaluation unless monitoring is enabled for that tab.

Limited Use Disclosure

EVENTLISTENER's use of user data is limited to providing and improving the extension's single purpose and user-facing features.

EVENTLISTENER uses handled data only for tab monitoring, rule evaluation, trigger actions, local settings, popup status, dashboard status, and related extension functionality.
EVENTLISTENER does not sell user data.
EVENTLISTENER does not use or transfer user data for personalized advertising.
EVENTLISTENER does not use user data for creditworthiness or lending purposes.
EVENTLISTENER does not transfer user data except as necessary to provide or improve the extension, comply with applicable law, or protect against security abuse.
Humans do not read user data unless the user asks for support and explicitly provides relevant information, or unless access is necessary for security, legal compliance, or aggregated/anonymized internal operations.

Security

EVENTLISTENER is designed to keep its handled data in the user's browser using Chrome extension storage. The extension does not transmit monitored tab data or user activity data to a developer-operated server.

No system can be guaranteed completely secure, but EVENTLISTENER is designed to minimize data handling by using local browser storage and limiting handled data to what is needed for the extension's user-facing monitoring features.

Children's Privacy

EVENTLISTENER is a general productivity tool and is not directed to children. EVENTLISTENER does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Third-Party Services

EVENTLISTENER does not require a third-party account and does not send monitored tab data to third-party services controlled by the developer.

The Chrome Web Store, Google Chrome, Blogger, and other platforms used to publish or install the extension may have their own privacy practices. Those services are governed by their respective privacy policies.

User Choices And Controls

Users choose which tabs to arm.
Users choose which event groups and conditions to enable.
Users choose which actions should run when a rule fires.
Users can disarm a monitored tab.
Users can disarm all monitored tabs.
Users can change or delete rule templates.
Users can remove EVENTLISTENER from Chrome.

Data Retention

EVENTLISTENER retains local settings and monitoring state for as long as needed to provide the extension's features or until the user changes settings, disarms tabs, deletes templates, clears extension data, or removes the extension from Chrome.

Because EVENTLISTENER stores data locally in Chrome extension storage, deleting or removing the extension is the main way to remove its locally stored extension data.

Changes To This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in EVENTLISTENER, Chrome extension requirements, Chrome Web Store policies, or applicable privacy practices.

When this policy is updated, the effective date at the top of the page will be changed. Users are encouraged to review this page periodically.

Getting Started

Install EVENTLISTENER from the Chrome Web Store.
Pin the extension to your Chrome toolbar if you want quick access.
Open the EVENTLISTENER popup from the toolbar.
Open the full dashboard from the popup.
Configure your saved default rules in the dashboard.
Select the event groups you want to monitor.
Choose the conditions for each selected event group.
Select the action or actions that should run when a rule fires.
Preview and choose an alarm sound if you are using alarm actions.
Configure shortcuts if you want EVENTLISTENER to run a shortcut on the monitored page.
Save your setup.
Return to the page you want to monitor.
Open the EVENTLISTENER popup and click Arm Current Tab.

Basic Workflow

EVENTLISTENER works best when you follow this workflow:

Prepare rules in the dashboard. Choose your event groups, conditions, actions, cooldowns, alarm sound, and shortcut settings.
Arm a tab from the popup. Apply your saved default setup to the current tab.
Let the tab run. EVENTLISTENER watches the selected tab activity while you continue your work.
Review live coverage. Use the dashboard to see which tabs are armed.
Disarm when finished. Stop monitoring manually, or configure a rule action to disarm automatically after firing.

Popup Guide

The popup is the fastest way to use EVENTLISTENER after you have configured your defaults.

Current Tab

The current tab area shows information about the tab you are viewing. This helps you confirm which page you are about to arm or disarm.

Monitoring Status

The monitoring status area shows whether the current tab is armed. If the tab is not armed, EVENTLISTENER is not actively monitoring it with your saved setup.

Arm Current Tab

This applies your saved default rules to the current tab. Use this after you have configured the dashboard and are ready to monitor a page.

Disarm Current Tab

This stops monitoring the current tab. Use it when you no longer need EVENTLISTENER to watch that page.

Test Alarm

This lets you test the selected alarm behavior so you can confirm that sound output is working.

Stop Alarm

This stops an active alarm if one is playing.

Open The Full Dashboard

This opens the main configuration area where you can manage saved defaults, conditions, actions, sounds, shortcuts, cooldowns, and monitored tabs.

Dashboard Guide

The dashboard contains the full EVENTLISTENER configuration experience.

Saved Defaults

Saved defaults are the rules that the popup applies when you arm a tab. Configure these first if you want a repeatable setup.

Rule Editor

The rule editor lets you choose event groups, set conditions, and decide what should happen when those conditions are met.

Trigger Actions

Trigger actions are the things EVENTLISTENER runs when a rule fires. You can enable one action or multiple actions.

Cooldown

Cooldown controls help prevent repeated triggers from firing too frequently. If a page changes rapidly, cooldown settings can reduce noise and make alerts easier to manage.

Live Coverage

The live coverage view shows which tabs are currently armed and which rules are active. Use this view to review, focus, or disarm monitored tabs.

Event Groups Explained

Tab Activity

Use tab activity monitoring for URL changes, title changes, or long loading states. This can help when a web app changes status through the title, redirects to a new URL, or remains in a loading state longer than expected.

Audio And Media

Use audio and media monitoring when sound activity matters. EVENTLISTENER can help detect audio activity or silence conditions depending on your configured rule.

Clicks

Use click monitoring for click inactivity or click bursts. This may be useful for pages where repeated clicking, lack of clicking, or user interaction timing matters.

Scrolling

Use scrolling monitoring to detect scroll inactivity or scroll depth. This may be useful for long pages, feeds, review workflows, documentation, or dashboards.

Keyboard

Use keyboard monitoring for typing inactivity or typing bursts. This can help with pages where text input or keyboard interaction is part of the workflow.

Visibility

Use visibility monitoring to detect when a page stays visible or hidden for a selected amount of time.

DOM Changes

Use DOM change monitoring when page content changes without a full reload. This is useful for dashboards, queues, live feeds, dynamic tables, and web apps that update in place.

Actions Explained

Play Alarm Sound

This plays the selected alarm sound when a rule fires. Use the preview option in the dashboard to test the sound before saving.

Show Notification

This shows a browser notification when a rule fires. If notifications do not appear, check Chrome notification permissions and your operating system notification settings.

Run Shortcut

This sends a configured keyboard shortcut into the monitored page. Shortcut behavior depends on the website. Some websites accept scripted keyboard events, while others ignore or block them.

Stop Screen Share

This attempts to stop an active screen share from the monitored page when supported. The success of this action depends on the browser, page, and screen-sharing context.

Close Tab

This closes the monitored tab when the rule fires. Use this carefully on pages where unsaved work may exist.

Disarm Tab

This stops monitoring after a rule fires. It is useful when you want a rule to run once and then stop.

Troubleshooting

The extension is not detecting activity

Make sure the current tab is armed.
Open the dashboard and confirm that the event group is enabled.
Check that the rule condition matches the behavior you expect.
Try testing on a normal website rather than a Chrome internal page.
Refresh the page, arm the tab again, and test the condition.
Check whether the page restricts extension scripts or injected behavior.

The popup says the tab is not armed

Open the popup on the tab you want to monitor and click Arm Current Tab. If you switch to a different tab, that other tab may not be armed unless you arm it separately.

The alarm does not play

Open the dashboard and preview the selected alarm sound.
Make sure your device volume is turned up.
Check that Chrome is not muted in your operating system sound settings.
Use the popup's alarm test control.
Try selecting a different alarm sound.

Notifications do not appear

Make sure browser notifications are allowed.
Check your operating system notification settings.
Disable focus mode, do not disturb mode, or notification blocking if needed.
Confirm that the notification action is enabled in your rule setup.

The shortcut action does not work

Make sure the shortcut is configured correctly in the dashboard.
Test the shortcut manually on the target page.
Remember that shortcut actions are intended for in-page shortcuts.
Some websites may ignore injected keyboard events.
Chrome internal pages and restricted pages may not support shortcut injection.

The tab does not close

Confirm that the close tab action is enabled.
Make sure the rule actually fired.
Check whether the tab is a restricted browser page.
Try the same setup on a normal web page.

Screen share does not stop

Confirm that the stop screen share action is enabled.
Check whether the monitored page supports the required behavior.
Try ending the screen share manually to confirm browser behavior.
Some pages and browser contexts may not allow this action.

Rules fire too often

Increase the cooldown period.
Make the condition more specific.
Disable event groups you do not need.
Use the disarm action if the rule should only run once.

Rules do not fire when expected

Check that the tab is armed.
Check that the selected event group is enabled.
Review the condition timing.
Test with a simpler condition first.
Open the live coverage view to confirm the tab is being monitored.

Best Practices

Configure saved defaults in the dashboard before using the popup.
Test rules on the actual websites where you plan to use them.
Start with one event group, then add more after confirming behavior.
Use cooldowns to avoid repeated alerts.
Preview alarm sounds before relying on them.
Use notifications for low-urgency events and alarms for urgent events.
Use disarm-after-fire when you only need a rule to run once.
Be careful with close-tab actions on pages where unsaved work may exist.

EVENT LISTENER EXTENSION

EVENTLISTENER

EVENTLISTENER is a Chrome extension for monitoring live tab and page activity, then automatically running selected actions when your rules are matched. It is designed for people who need Chrome to keep watch over a page while they focus on something else.

With EVENTLISTENER, you can arm a tab, choose the activity you want to monitor, define the conditions that matter, and decide what should happen when a rule fires. The extension can help with alerts, workflow shortcuts, screen-share cleanup, tab cleanup, notifications, and other browser-based monitoring tasks.

Quick Summary

Product name	EVENTLISTENER
Type	Chrome extension
Main purpose	Monitor tab and page conditions, then run one or more actions when selected rules are matched.
Primary interface	Popup controls and full dashboard
Supported browser	Google Chrome and Chromium-based browsers that support Manifest V3 extensions
Mature content	No. EVENTLISTENER is a productivity and browser automation tool.

What EVENTLISTENER Does

EVENTLISTENER helps you monitor activity in a browser tab. Instead of repeatedly checking whether a page changed, whether audio started or stopped, whether a title changed, whether a page has been idle, or whether a tab has stayed visible or hidden, you can configure EVENTLISTENER to watch those signals for you.

When a monitored condition matches your saved rule, EVENTLISTENER can run one or more actions. For example, it can play an alarm sound, show a notification, run a shortcut on the page, stop an active screen share when supported, close the tab, or disarm the tab after the rule fires.

Core Idea

The extension is built around a simple workflow:

Choose what to monitor. Select one or more event groups such as tab activity, audio, clicks, scrolling, keyboard activity, visibility, or DOM changes.
Set the condition. Decide what should count as a rule match, such as inactivity, a burst of activity, a URL change, a title change, or a long loading state.
Choose the action. Pick what should happen when the rule fires.
Arm a tab. Apply your saved rules to the current tab from the popup.
Let EVENTLISTENER watch. The extension monitors the selected signals and runs the configured actions when a rule matches.

Main Features

Monitor multiple signal types from the same tab.
Configure saved default rules from the dashboard.
Apply saved defaults quickly from the popup.
Run more than one action when the same rule fires.
Review all armed tabs from the live coverage view.
Preview alarm sounds before saving them.
Configure shortcut actions using manual controls or keyboard capture.
Use cooldown settings to avoid repeated alerts firing too quickly.
Disarm tabs manually or automatically after a rule fires.
Use popup controls for quick arming, disarming, testing, and dashboard access.

Monitored Event Groups

Tab Activity

The tab activity monitor can watch for changes related to the current tab, such as URL changes, title changes, and long loading states. This is useful when a website redirects, a web app changes views, a page title updates with status information, or a page takes longer than expected to finish loading.

Audio And Media

The audio and media monitor can help detect when a tab has audio activity or when audio remains silent for too long. This can be useful for calls, streams, media sessions, live dashboards, notification sounds, or pages where sound activity matters.

Clicks

The click monitor can watch for click inactivity or click bursts within a time window. This is useful when a page requires interaction, when you want to know whether a tab has been idle, or when repeated clicks should trigger a follow-up action.

Scrolling

The scrolling monitor can detect scroll inactivity or when a page crosses a selected scroll-depth threshold. This can help with long reading pages, review workflows, dashboards, documentation, feeds, or pages where scroll progress matters.

Keyboard Activity

The keyboard monitor can detect typing inactivity or typing bursts. This is useful for pages where keyboard input is part of the workflow, such as forms, editors, chat tools, web apps, dashboards, and internal tools.

Visibility

The visibility monitor can detect when a page stays hidden or visible for too long. This can help when you want to know if a monitored page has remained in the background, or if a page that should be monitored has stayed visible for a certain amount of time.

DOM Changes

The DOM changes monitor can detect quiet periods or bursts of page mutations. This is useful for web pages that update dynamically, such as dashboards, live content, queues, tables, feeds, and other web applications where page content changes without a full reload.

Trigger Actions

Play Alarm Sound

EVENTLISTENER includes a built-in alarm sound library. You can select an alarm sound and preview it before saving it as part of your rule setup. Alarm sounds are useful when you need an immediate audible signal that a monitored condition has been met.

Show Notification

The extension can show a browser notification when a rule fires. Notifications can help you notice a rule match even when Chrome is not the active window, depending on your browser and operating system notification settings.

Run Shortcut

EVENTLISTENER can send a configured keyboard shortcut into the monitored page. This is intended for in-page shortcuts, not Chrome-level or operating-system-level shortcuts. Some pages may block scripted keyboard events or may not respond to injected shortcuts.

Stop Screen Share

When supported by the page and browser context, EVENTLISTENER can attempt to stop an active screen share from the monitored page. This can be useful for cleanup workflows where a rule should end sharing after a condition is met.

Close Tab

The extension can close the monitored tab after a rule fires. This is useful for temporary pages, completed monitoring sessions, or workflows where the tab should be cleaned up automatically.

Disarm Tab

EVENTLISTENER can disarm the monitored tab after a rule fires. This prevents the same monitoring setup from continuing after the selected event has already happened.

Popup Controls

The popup is designed for quick use. It lets you see the current tab, check whether it is armed, arm the current tab using saved defaults, disarm the current tab, test the alarm, stop an active alarm, and open the full dashboard.

The popup is useful when you have already configured your preferred defaults in the dashboard and want to apply them quickly to the tab you are currently viewing.

Dashboard

The dashboard is where you manage the full monitoring setup. It includes saved defaults, rule templates, event groups, trigger actions, cooldown settings, alarm sound preview, shortcut configuration, and live coverage for currently armed tabs.

The dashboard is designed for deeper setup work. Use it when you want to adjust conditions, change actions, preview sounds, manage shortcut behavior, or review which tabs are currently being monitored.

Live Coverage View

The live coverage view shows which tabs are currently armed and what monitoring rules are active. This helps you understand what EVENTLISTENER is watching right now and makes it easier to focus, disarm, or review monitored tabs.

Rule Templates And Saved Defaults

EVENTLISTENER can use saved default rules so that you do not need to rebuild the same monitoring setup every time. Configure the dashboard once, save the defaults, and then use the popup to apply those defaults quickly to the current tab.

Alarm Sound Library

The extension includes multiple built-in alarm sound options. Depending on the version, examples may include sounds such as ambulance, klaxon, warning, airhorn, radar, bell, reactor, and other alert-style sounds. The dashboard lets you preview sounds before using them.

Shortcut Configuration

Shortcut actions can be configured manually or through keyboard capture. This makes it easier to build the shortcut you want to send into a monitored page. Because websites handle keyboard input differently, shortcut behavior can vary by website.

Cooldown Settings

Cooldown settings help prevent repeated alerts from firing too frequently. For example, if a monitored condition happens repeatedly in a short time, cooldown behavior can help keep actions from becoming noisy or disruptive.

Example Use Cases

Play an alarm if a tab has been silent for too long.
Show a notification when a page title changes.
Run a shortcut after a period of click inactivity.
Close a temporary tab after a monitoring condition is met.
Detect when a dynamic page becomes quiet after a burst of DOM changes.
Track whether a monitored tab has stayed hidden or visible for too long.
Monitor a page that changes content without a full reload.
Disarm monitoring automatically after a rule fires once.

Who EVENTLISTENER Is For

EVENTLISTENER may be useful for people who work with browser-based dashboards, web applications, live pages, media tabs, internal tools, documentation, forms, feeds, queues, or temporary monitoring sessions.

It is intended for users who want practical browser monitoring controls without building custom scripts for every page.

Permissions Explained

Chrome extensions require permissions so they can perform the features they advertise. EVENTLISTENER may request permissions such as alarms, notifications, offscreen behavior, scripting, storage, tabs, and access to pages where monitoring is used.

Alarms

The alarms permission helps the extension schedule and manage time-based checks and cooldown behavior.

Notifications

The notifications permission allows EVENTLISTENER to show browser notifications when configured actions fire.

Storage

The storage permission allows EVENTLISTENER to save your dashboard settings, rules, selected actions, alarm choices, shortcut settings, and monitoring preferences.

Tabs

The tabs permission helps the extension identify and manage tabs that are armed for monitoring.

Scripting And Page Access
