The extension does not modify websites or interfere with browsing activity in any way. PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED Website access — Required to detect the hostname of top-level navigations for domain-level SaaS discovery. The extension does not read page content, access personal data, or monitor browsing behavior beyond identifying the domain being visited. Identity (Google account email) — Used solely to associate browser activity with your organization's employee directory in OptyStack. This allows administrators to understand SaaS adoption at the team level. Your email is matched against your organization's known employee list and is never shared with third parties or used for any other purpose. Both permissions are used strictly for organizational SaaS discovery and governance. No personal data leaves your organization's OptyStack account.
