Archify collects nothing.
Last updated: 10 June 2026
Data we collect
None. Archify runs entirely in your browser. There are no servers, no accounts, no analytics, and no telemetry. Page contents are never stored or transmitted. The per-tab analysis Archify builds is held only in memory and destroyed when you navigate away.
The launch waitlist
The extension collects nothing — that is unchanged. This website offers one optional thing: a launch waitlist. If you choose to enter your email, we store it solely to send you a single message when Archify ships on the Chrome Web Store. It lives in our own backend (hosted on Vercel, stored with Upstash, acting only as processors for us), is never sold, shared with advertisers, or added to a newsletter, and is deleted after launch or whenever you ask.
Permissions, and why each is needed
- Access to the sites you visit (host permission): Archify's analysis runs on the pages you open, so the inspector is ready the moment you hover. All analysis happens locally in your browser; page data is never sent anywhere.
- scripting: to inject the local analysis script into the page you're viewing.
- storage: to remember your local preferences (e.g., whether the hover inspector is on). Stored on your device only.
Network activity
Archify makes a single same-origin request to the page's own URL, to read its hosting response headers. That is the extension's only network request — nothing is sent to Archify or any third party, and no remote code is loaded. This website (where you're reading this) links out to GitHub and Glasswatch; those open only when you click them.
Third parties
We share no data with advertisers, data brokers, or analytics services. The only data this website handles — the optional waitlist email described above — is stored by our infrastructure providers acting solely as processors on our behalf.
