AccessiScroll Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 August 2026

AccessiScroll is a free accessibility extension that makes page scrollbars larger and higher-contrast so they are easier to see and grab.

The short version

AccessiScroll does not collect, transmit, sell, or share any data. Ever.

What the extension stores

AccessiScroll keeps only its own settings:

• Your scrollbar preferences (size, thumb color, track color, on/off state). These are saved with Chrome's storage.sync so they follow your Chrome profile between your own devices, using Google's built-in sync — the extension itself sends nothing anywhere.
• The list of sites where you have switched AccessiScroll off. This is saved with Chrome's storage.local and never leaves your computer.

That is the complete list. There are no analytics, no telemetry, no ads, no third-party services, and no servers of ours involved — the extension makes no network requests at all.

Why the extension asks for broad permissions

• Access to all websites (<all_urls>) — the whole point of the extension is to fix scrollbars automatically on every site you visit, so it must be able to apply its styling everywhere. It only injects scrollbar CSS; it does not read or record page content.
• scripting — used to inject the scrollbar stylesheet and set its size/color values on the page.
• webNavigation — used to know when a page or frame has loaded so the scrollbar styling can be applied. Navigation events are acted on immediately and never recorded.
• storage — used to remember your preferences, as described above.

Changes and contact

If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be posted at this same address with a new date. Questions: contact Chris Venter at myaccessibility.ai or via the project page at github.com/Crypto69/accessiscroll.
