This policy covers SWGBar Website Check, the Chrome extension, and its local Native Messaging bridge. Its single purpose is to display SWG TLS inspection evidence for the domain you visit, using existing observations from SWGBar on your Mac.
The extension reads tab URLs in memory to identify the hostname and port and keep the toolbar status in sync with navigation. The local bridge receives only the hostname and port, never the URL path, query parameters, fragment, passwords, cookies, page contents or form entries.
The bridge reads SWGBar's existing local evidence database and storage key to return the matching domain's classification, target IP and port, network interface, connection method, request count, observation time, certificate name and trust results. The extension uses this information only to show the toolbar icon, tooltip and domain details. It does not write domain records, run certificate probes or change SWGBar settings.
Extension-to-SWGBar communication stays on the same Mac through Chrome Native Messaging. The extension and bridge do not upload browsing activity, observations, certificates or the storage key to SWGBar, Google or another remote service. There are no ads, analytics, tracking pixels or remote executable scripts in the extension.
Connection verification stores a process ID, random challenge, session ID, extension ID and version in local connection files. These contain no browsing history; the current connection status is removed when its bridge session closes. Domain observations remain in the SWGBar application's local database until the application clears them. Removing the extension does not delete the application's records. Use SWGBar's “Clear records and reprobe” control to clear business records and start new local observations.
The extension does not request website host access or inject scripts into pages. Copying a domain is performed only when you press its copy button.
We do not sell or transfer extension user data to third parties, use it for advertising or unrelated purposes, or use it to assess creditworthiness. The use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Chrome and the Chrome Web Store separately manage extension installation and updates under Google's policies. Visiting swgbar.com is covered by the website privacy notice; installing the extension does not subscribe you to email updates.
The extension requires a compatible SWGBar macOS companion. Results are the companion's independent observations, not a verification of the current Chrome connection. An unavailable or unobserved domain has no detail popup. A “Public” result means no inspection evidence was found in the available observation; it is not a guarantee of connection safety.

SWGBar 插件仅使用本机客户端已有的观测，展示当前访问域名的 SWG TLS 检查证据。插件在内存中读取标签页网址以识别域名和端口；传给本机桥接的查询只包含域名和端口，不包含路径、查询参数、片段、密码、Cookie、网页内容或表单输入。
桥接只读查询本机数据库及存储密钥，返回分类、目标地址、网卡、连接方式、请求次数、观测时间、证书名称和信任结果。通信均通过同一台 Mac 上的 Chrome Native Messaging 完成，不上传浏览活动、观测、证书或密钥，不包含广告、统计追踪或远程执行脚本，不修改客户端的域名记录、探测或设置。
连接验证使用本机文件保存进程、随机挑战、会话及插件版本信息，不保存浏览历史。会话结束时移除其连接状态。客户端观测由客户端保存和清理；卸载插件不会删除客户端数据，可使用客户端的“Clear records and reprobe”清空业务记录并重新观测。
插件使用 tabs 识别域名、nativeMessaging 进行本机查询、alarms 定期更新。只有点击复制按钮时才写入剪贴板。用户数据不出售、不转给第三方，不用于广告、无关用途或信用评估，并遵循 Chrome 应用商店用户数据政策及有限使用要求。
插件需要兼容的 macOS 客户端。显示的是客户端独立观测，不是当前 Chrome 连接的证书验证，“公共”状态不保证连接安全。隐私问题请联系 [email protected]。
