Data Helper

Last updated: April 13, 2026

Data Helper is a Chrome extension that adds right-click context menu actions to clean and copy phone numbers, URLs, and formatted numbers to your clipboard.

What data Data Helper uses

• Selected text or link URL on the active page, only when the user explicitly triggers a context menu action.
• The cleaned result is written to the system clipboard and is not retained by the extension.

How Data Helper uses data

• To clean the selected text or link (strip non-digits from phone numbers, remove tracking parameters and fragments from URLs, parse formatted numbers).
• To copy the cleaned result to the clipboard via a user-initiated action.
• To display brief toast notifications on the active page confirming the result.

Data sharing and transmission

• Data Helper does not collect, send, or store any user data.
• Data Helper makes zero network requests. The Content Security Policy enforces connect-src 'none'.
• Data Helper does not sell, transfer, or share user data with third parties.
• Data Helper does not use remote code, analytics, or tracking of any kind.

Storage

• Data Helper does not use chrome.storage, localStorage, IndexedDB, cookies, or any other storage mechanism.
• Cleaned data exists only in the system clipboard and only for as long as the user keeps it there.

Permissions

• contextMenus — to register right-click menu items.
• activeTab — to access the active tab only when the user triggers a menu action.
• scripting — to write to the clipboard and display toast notifications on the active tab. Only executes on user gesture.
