EdgeScope is built with strict privacy and security principles. As a network analysis tool, it intercepts web traffic for debugging purposes, but all processing happens locally on your device. We never collect, store, or transmit your browsing data.
1. Data Collection and Usage
EdgeScope analyzes HTTP headers, network payloads, and DNS routing to detect CDNs and Tag Gateways. This data is displayed to you in real-time within your browser.
The extension does not send any of this network data to external servers, analytics providers, or databases. Your network activity remains entirely private and contained within your local browser session.
2. Required Permissions
EdgeScope utilizes modern Manifest V3 APIs to ensure performance and security. The following permissions are required strictly for the core functionality of the tool:
- ✓ "declarativeNetRequestWithHostAccess" & "declarativeNetRequestFeedback" — The core engine of EdgeScope. These allow the extension to securely observe network request headers and routing details to detect CDNs, sGTM, and Gateways without directly exposing raw request bodies to unnecessary risk.
- ✓ "webNavigation" — Allows the extension to monitor page navigation events. This is crucial for properly grouping network requests and supporting Single Page Applications (SPAs) as you browse.
- ✓ "storage" — Used exclusively to save your local UI preferences and settings within your own browser.
- ✓ "host_permissions" (<all_urls>) — Necessary to allow the declarative network APIs to actively monitor and parse the network requests across whichever websites you are currently debugging.
