What we process

When you click the toolbar icon, Lowbeam reads the structure and visual styles of the current page on your device. It uses that information to assess the page, apply a dark appearance, and restore the page when you turn it off.

What we do not collect

Lowbeam does not collect, upload, sell, or share page content, browsing history, search history, form content, authentication data, or personal information. It has no remote analytics, advertising, account system, or cloud sync.

Local state

The extension uses the browser’s session storage to keep the current tab’s enabled intent, origin, and most recent rendering mode. This state is not used to track you. New tabs start with Lowbeam off.

Browser permissions

activeTab and scripting let Lowbeam respond to your click and process the current tab. storage keeps temporary tab state. webNavigation supports a consistent experience through same-origin reloads and accessible iframes on enabled pages. Access to HTTP/HTTPS pages is used for first-frame protection and dark-mode processing within the page.

Changes to this notice

If our data handling changes materially, we will explain it in the extension and on this page before the change takes effect. The current version does not transfer user data to DataEcho Technologies or any third party.
