The extension can request access to your camera and/or microphone, but only when you explicitly start one of the optional, off-by-default recording features below. Your browser shows its own permission prompt each time, and you can deny or revoke access at any point — none of these features do anything without your action.
| Feature | Accesses | What happens to the data |
|---|---|---|
| Reaction Recording | Camera + microphone | Recorded locally in your browser (MediaRecorder) and saved to your device. Never uploaded to us. |
| Screen Recorder | Microphone (optional) | Recorded locally and saved to your device. Never uploaded to us. |
| Meeting Recorder | Microphone | Recorded locally and saved to your device. Never uploaded to us. |
| Live Transcription | Microphone | Uses your browser's built-in Web Speech API to turn speech into text. Video Controls Plus does not receive, store, or transmit this audio. |
We never transmit, upload, store, or access any camera, microphone, video, or audio data — recordings stay on your device and reach no server of ours or any third party. Live Transcription note: speech-to-text is performed by your browser; in some browsers (for example, Chrome) the browser itself may send audio to its own speech-recognition service to convert it to text. That processing is governed by your browser's privacy policy, not ours.
The following data collection is enabled by default but can be disabled in extension settings at any time.
When enabled, we use third-party services to understand how users interact with the extension:
