PRIVACY
The extension connects directly from Chrome to Telegram. Credentials, session data, settings, message filtering, and notifications are handled in the current Chrome profile. There is no developer-operated server, analytics, advertising, or telemetry.
PERMISSIONS
Storage keeps local credentials, settings, state, and logs. Notifications display matched messages. Side Panel provides the optional persistent inbox. Offscreen and alarms keep the local MTProto Worker available while Chrome is running. Host access is limited to Telegram WebSocket endpoints.
