AdBlock Pro is a content-blocking browser extension. It does not collect, store, transmit, or sell any personal data, browsing history, or usage analytics. All blocking decisions are made locally, on your device, using filter rules that are bundled inside the extension package. The extension does not operate any backend server and does not communicate with any remote server on your behalf.
The extension stores the following data locally on your device, using the browser's built-in chrome.storage.local API. This data never leaves your device and is never sent to us or to any third party:
| Data | Purpose | Where it is stored |
|---|---|---|
| On/off state of the extension | Remember whether blocking is enabled | Local device storage only |
| List of whitelisted site domains | Remember sites where you chose to disable blocking | Local device storage only |
| Per-tab count of blocked requests | Show the "blocked on this page" counter in the popup | Local, in-memory / local device storage; cleared when a tab closes |
None of this data identifies you personally, and none of it is ever transmitted anywhere. Uninstalling the extension removes this data from your device.
The extension blocks ads and trackers using Chrome's declarativeNetRequest API with a static, pre-bundled set of filter rules derived from public filter lists (such as EasyList and EasyPrivacy). These rules are compiled into the extension package before publication — your browser never downloads or fetches filter rules from the internet at runtime.
| Permission | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
declarativeNetRequest / declarativeNetRequestFeedback |
Apply the bundled blocking rules to network requests, and show a local count of blocked requests in the toolbar badge. |
host_permissions: <all_urls> |
Blocking rules and cosmetic (element-hiding) filtering need to be able to apply on any site you visit — this is standard for content-blocking extensions. |
scripting / content script |
Hide ad elements on the page using CSS selectors bundled with the extension (cosmetic filtering). No page content is read, collected, or sent anywhere. |
storage |
Save your on/off preference and site whitelist locally, as described above. |
tabs |
Detect the current tab's site so the popup can show/toggle blocking for that specific site. |
The blocking rules bundled with the extension are compiled offline by the developer from publicly available filter lists (e.g. EasyList, EasyPrivacy, and similar community-maintained lists). Downloading and compiling those lists happens on the developer's machine as part of preparing a release — it is not something your browser does, and it does not involve any of your data.
The extension does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect personal information at all.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this same location with a revised effective date. Continued use of the extension after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
